Integrating WooCommerce with MeetingHive & RentalHive

Hello HivePress Team,

I recently purchased two of your themes—MeetingHive and RentalHive—and would like to integrate WooCommerce to sell products on both sites. However, I’ve noticed that neither theme sources official styling for WooCommerce out of the box.

Are there recommended approaches, add-ons, or snippets that might help achieve a more seamless WooCommerce integration without compromising the original design? Any advice on how to set this up, or on compatibility considerations, would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Anri

P.S. Slava Ukraini!

I have a second inquiry: Would it be possible to utilize the MeetingHive theme and marketplace extension to sell a product? I have created authors for MeetingHive, and now I need to sell their books. Is it possible via Woocommerce? Please note that we need styled products (like Rent version is) to purchase as a product. We will create all the details for the book, such as the cover style, pages, colors, etc., and the user will purchase it. The best example is the RentalHive WooCommerce checkout, but instead of renting, you can buy a book. Thanks

Hello Ambrosi and welcome !

I am not part of the official support team, just so you know.

Maybe I misunderstood your questionS, but Hivepress is relying on WooCommerce.

However, as far as I know, you can only sell “services”, in many forms (rentals, meetings, gigs), but only services.

It is not possible to set up a delivery as needed for books, as least not without custom development.

My two cents,

Hello cotasson,

Thank you so much for your response and for clarifying how HivePress works!

Yes, it’s perfectly fine to sell “The Book” as a service (technically). However, I was wondering if it’s possible to figure out the design aspect? Specifically, I’d like to add images, a detailed book description, and technical details such as the book cover, page count, etc., to make the product visually appealing and informative for buyers.

P.S. Would it be possible to see any live examples of selling a product as a service (technically) using HivePress? It would be really helpful to understand how this could work in practice.

Thank you again for your help!

Best regards,
Ambrosi

As I said, Hivepress is built on top of WooCommerce, but not for products (like books).

All that aside, you can add custom attributes to listings (or ads, annoucements…) and then you could display them in the front-end.

Please read / watch tutorials to get to grips with HivePress :

Thank you very much. I will review the information and await official support advice while I wait. Cheers
