Responsive Design
This theme is Responsive! – When viewing the demo, be sure to resize your browser window – there are some cool responsive effects going on here. What’s the benefit you may ask? Well it means that your site will look good on mobile phones, tablets and desktops.
By having a site which is “device agnostic” you ensure that whoever is visiting your site will have the best browsing experience possible on the device they are viewing it with. No compromise.
Obox Mobile Compatible
How it works – Obox Mobile works by detecting supported devices like iPhones, Android & Blackberry and more, serving an optimized theme instead of your regular desktop theme.

WooCommerce Compatibility
Sales Analytics – Keep birds-eye view of incoming sales and reviews, stock levels and general store performance and statistics all from the WordPress dashboard.
Shipping & Tax – WooCommerce have built in comprehensive shipping settings enabling you to define shipping costs per product, or declare a flat rate for all your products, you can also offer free shipping. Extend these options with our table rate shipping extension to define different shipping rates for various countries, or different weight brackets.
Create & Sell all kinds of Products – WooCommerce’s product management is focused on ease-of-use; if you’re comfortable writing & publishing a post within WordPress, adding products to WooCommerce will be a similar breeze.
Payment Gateways – If you don’t want to go through the trouble of adding your own payment gateway, WooCommerce already supports a wide variety of popular payment gateways for you that are Plug & Play.
Much much more – WooCommerce is an incredibly impressive eCommerce plugin that continues to get better. Read more about their features here.
eCommerce Features
New slider – With the eCommerce version of Gigawatt we have updated the slider with a whole bunch of options. You can now choose the type of content you want to display (blog, product or portfolio posts). If you choose the product display, we have included an overlay showing the name and description of the product in the slider.
Also new is the inclusion of the slider in the product page, so if you have more than one image to show the slider will automatically appear.
Cart drop down –
The shopping cart is now a drop down sitting at the top of right of the screen. The raw look of it suiting Gigawatt well.
Sale/price tabs – In previous builds we have hidden the pricing from list pages but decided that it would look good with some neat overlays here.
Purchase button area – We mentioned this briefly with the Kiosk release and weve expanded on it a bit here. I think one of the best looking parts of Gigwatt eCommerce is the purchase button area – it took a huge amount of time to style in all the variables that are factored into the purchase button code and I think we got it quite right.
