WooCommerce store for custom printed products

Anonymised case study · As of 7 October 2026

Main technical phase complete · Shipping tariffs being refined

The challenge

A Swiss online store needed a technical audit, fixes and setup for orders, payments, email, checkout elements and a manageable footer.

Role
WordPress/WooCommerce development, technical support and e-commerce setup
Period
July – September 2026

Implementation

I fixed cart errors, configured payment and email flows, implemented checkout changes and set up weight-based shipping calculation.

  • Technical audit and backup; correction of a PHP warning in the Lumise cart.
  • Configuration of card payments, Apple Pay, TWINT and bank transfer. Documented payment tests cover cards, Apple Pay and refunds.
  • Infomaniak SMTP and store notifications; delivery and routing of WooCommerce, WPForms and password-reset emails.
  • Technical implementation of a required terms checkbox and legal-document links at checkout; a complete footer rebuild in Astra Footer Builder, replacing Elementor.
  • Weight-based shipping calculation in WooCommerce, automatically adding shipping charges to the order total.

How the solution works

How the solution works WooCommerce calculates shipping from order weight. Checkout handles the total, terms confirmation and payment method; order notifications are sent through SMTP. Cart Weight + shipping Checkout + payment Email confirmation
WooCommerce calculates shipping from order weight. Checkout handles the total, terms confirmation and payment method; order notifications are sent through SMTP. Simplified view of the implemented components.

Confirmed result

Cart warnings resolved; card payments, Apple Pay, refunds and emails tested. The footer and shipping calculator are live.

WooCommerce, form and password-reset emails are delivered. Footer links and contacts were checked. The required terms checkbox and document links work at checkout. Shipping costs are calculated from order weight and added to the total.

Next steps

Some shipping tariffs still need refinement. The implemented calculator already works with the configured rules.
