So we’ve been testing DukaPress 2.3 Beta for quite a logn while now. I’m proud to announce the immediate availability of DukaPress 2.3 Beta 2!
You can download it here: DukaPress 2.3 Beta 2
Why has this taken so long? The honest truth is feature creep – we’ve been adding in ‘just one more’ feature and this has continuously led to the delay of DukaPress 2.3 being officially released. Well, no more! We aren’t adding any more until we release 2.3 and that is why we’re having a final beta testing period where we hope to find and fix as many bugs as possible.
The New Stuff
- We’ve enhanced DukaPress security greatly by making it impossible for people to order items that are out of stock or to order more items than the inventory quantity.
- We’ve introduced a “Buy Now” button that redirects directly to PayPal instead of taking you to the checkout page. Click here to learn how to use this button.

- We’ve added some DukaPress stuff to the admin bar so that managing your shop becomes easier.
- Added new shortcodes. These are shortcodes to display product image only, product information only and one that displays the cart inside a product. Learn about them by clicking here.
- Added the ability for shop admins to edit the content of emails sent out to customers from within DukaPress settings. You can click here to read the documentation and learn about this.
- We’ve fixed tons and tons of bugs. A whole lot of bugs were crushed.
Please help us test this version of DukaPress to decrease the number of bugs that will be shipped when we make the final release.

Please note that when you download and installed it, it will still be marked as “DukaPress 2.2”. However, the differences will be very noticeable.
Good stuff….looking forward to giving it a try..but what happens to users of the old version.Do you have an option for upgrading or one will need to do a complete install….
You can easily upgrade from within WordPress.
Also, the new version does not overwrite any of your old info – you keep all of your previous information and products.
Hi, thats really great tool you create. I have some problems, when i add different variations with f.e. +10 euro price, it doesnt add the product in the checkout. And who need to sort their pics, you can normally use:
$attachment_images = &get_children(array(‘post_parent’ => $product_id,
‘post_status’ => ‘inherit’,
‘post_type’ => ‘attachment’,
‘post_mime_type’ => ‘image’,
‘order’ => ‘DESC’,
‘orderby’ => ‘menu_order ID’));
Do anyone has same problems with variations?
Your product is great. I sell t shirts, is there a way that when someone clicks “Add to cart” the size option pops up? – http://www.elitestgear.com
Thank you
Unfortunately not possible at this time 🙁 You’d have to modify it to handle this.
What about eliminating the “Add to Cart” button and/or having it to jump/direct to the individual product page?
For eliminating it, why don’t you try just adding diplay:none; to the CSS that generates it?

Have you clicked the Email Management and created your new emails? When it is first installed they are all blank.
