But what if your version of WooCommerce didn't take you to the WooCommerce setup wizard?
You may see this instead.
Click on the Start Selling button.
This will bring up a screen with 8 tabs for you to work through (it only has to be done once, unless you need to come back later and make changes).
You can also get to this screen by clicking Settings in the WooCommerce menu in the WordPress left sidebar.
In either case, the first tab, General isdisplayed.
Enter the information requested. Unless you have good reason to change, accept the default settings to sell and ship to all countries, enable tax rates and calculations and enable coupon codes. More details on these later.

Thanks Phil for the training in the installation of Woo Commerce.
I have bogged down however. I am stuck at the place that asks for my social secutity number. They are telling me that there is a mismatch somewhere. I have been told by them that I have to submit to the social security administraton for the exact way that my social security number is displayed by them, and I have to wait about two weeks for a response.
My question, is there some way to communicate with the social security admnisteration that will bypass the two week wait?
Cheers and blessings

No one can answer that; it is a piece of software you are using that could be faulty vs. a department.

Sorry, Eddie, but I'm not American so have no idea how your social security number works.

I am always careful with installing plugins because sometimes it shows an error when I want to log in to my back office.
I installed Smush and got a Bad Request Error when trying to log in to my back office.
I like to use Smush, but I am reluctant to install it again because of the Error described above.
Any Idea why that is?

If this issue is still ongoing, reach out to site support.
Wow, we seem to want training on installing plugins. Don't you think? - For most plugins, go to the Plugins tab of your WordPress site's back office, input what you are looking for, and make sure they are compatible with the theme, install, and activate.
Furthermore, when plugins are clean-coded, there would be no issues. However, I think in your case scenario, you may have had a conflict with another plugin already installed on your website.

It's worth it if you want to build an e-commerce website, but a lot more work to get it up and running than affiliate marketing.
