Q3 There are currently no configured digital or physical variations for this gallery message.
Solution: It means that you haven’t configured any variations in the price list for the gallery you are currently trying to view. Without the variations the plugin will be unable to process the cart properly. Therefore in order for your galleries to work properly please ensure that you configure the variations for the relevant price list by going to the “Price List” menu and editing the price list.

Q4 If you are setting up your website to be https secure, and are having problems with displaying images. Try the following.
Solution: You will have to modify the following file .htaccess fin the “uploads/wp-photo-seller” directory to also allow “https” for your hostname. An example:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !^facebook [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http(s)?://(.*)facebook.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !^Pinterest [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !(wp-admin) [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http(s)?://yourwebsite\.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !(127.0.0.1|localhost|\:\:1)
RewriteRule .* http://127.0.0.1 [L]
</IfModule>
Remember to change the yourwebsite with your URL.

This is a very good plugin for this type of work BUT BEWARE… Thumbnails cannot be copyright protected. This might not seem too relevant as the images are small but many people copy & share images they have captured from thumbnails and terefore you lose money.
Also, a big failing is that you can increase your browser magnification which in turn increases the thumbnail to a normal size image that you can copy easily. Unfortunately the thumbnail does not pixelate as it grows so you get a great quality image free!!
If they fix these issues it would be a great plugin so beware for now before you buy.
Hi Philip, thank you for your comment. I understand what you mean and in regards to your inquiry I have submitted a message to the developers to investigate further.
Kind regards
