While the Subscribe and Connect is a great idea it's often doesn't keep up with the fickleness of the Internet. Look how many ideas and requests that have been made here related to it.

Today a lot of users want to add Pinterest, Vimeo, and Yelp. Tomorrow it'll be some other new service that's trending. Many could probably care less if Delicious and/or Flickr was still in there or not.

There will always be some service missing or irrelevant for some. So optionally provide a way for us to add new and custom linked icons, reorder them, etc through the Theme Options.

The Theme Options should also optionally provide the ability to customize/change the subscribe section with our own HTML so other email services can be used.

As a few other ideas have alluded to but not explicitly asked for is the ability to download single tracks from an music album and download albums as a whole from one SKU.

We have started to use the Unsigned theme as the basis to create an artists and record label websites at the moment and are very excited how far we can take this new theme. The functionality it offers just about covers every possible need we have except for the ability to easily set up a method to sell individual tracks from an album or an album as a whole using Woo Commerce. We guess this could be done using some kind of table, with a play button (to play sample in JPlayer add on) for each track followed by the track name, price then a add and minus button to add tracks individually to the basket. You would also have a option at the top of the table to add the whole album (so adding all tracks at once) to the cart. Some kind of dynamic pricing can then be used to make buying the album as a whole cheaper then buying individual tracks.

Last of all from this idea would be to dynamically compile a .zip (or similar) of all the tracks that had been bought and the ability for the customer to go into my account & downloads and tick songs they would like to download and when they click download a .zip is compiled dynamically and their download arrives as a single file. This is especially useful for record labels that may have a large discography where customers buy 1 album from one artists, 3 tracks from another artists & 2 tracks from another artist.

This is differently a secondary concern but to throw something else into the mix, lots of labels and artists now release there music in 2 or 3 three digital formats (MP3 192kbps & 320kbps, WAV) So it would be good to add the option to buy albums or single tracks in a specific format. In other custom made download stores this has been a drop down menu on individual products or as a drop down when you get to the checkout page asking what format you would like the entire order in.

As this is a bit specialist i would see this being a paid add-on and would have no issue paying for it.

If i am missing a easy way to do this that already exist please let us know as we have just started to get to grips with Woo Commerce and the Unsigned theme.

Thanks, The Refined Events team

I came on board with WooThemes because of the consistency in design of your themes and because (at the time) the themes had a distinctive and beautiful look about them. The themes are still well crafted and I really enjoy the consistency of where to find everything on the back end as I travel between any of the many sites I host for clients across North America, but I have been a bit disappointed with the newer themes not continuing to have that very artistic look about them. It seems that a decision was made to 'go utilitarian' and just pack as many features in as possible without regard to the visual appeal.

Among my favorites are Boast, Olya, and Sealight ... so I started thinking about what made them attractive to me. Obviously it was the gradient backgrounds which made those themes stand out. I'm sure my clients would be happier with their sites if I could give them all the kind of look that those themes present.

Here's my product suggestion. Perhaps you could have a set of backgrounds (with appropriate color variations) that could be purchased from your site and which could be integrated in to any WooTheme driven site. My first preference would be for you to start adding those artistic backgrounds back in to your new themes, but if that's not going to happen, I would still like to have Woo as a one-stop resource for making my new sites look more 'complete'.

I hope the Ninjas will give this some consideration and look forward to seeing a more 'visual appeal' in future themes!

Marketers that offer a continuity program where a customer is enrolled in an auto ship program, need specialized tools for managing these programs and need to allow the customer to manage their own programs as well. Here are some features that would be extremely helpful in a plugin, or core functionality, to anyone offering this type of continuity program:

Self-Service customer management interface allowing the customer to :
1) Increase/decrease/add products to a continuity program
2) change the billing date of the program or the date their credit card is charged.
3) adjust the shipping date for the monthly recurring order or adjust just a single months date to coordinate the delivery time.
4) "Vacation" Pause option to allow a customer to PAUSE a shipment for a given period of time.
5) allow customer to extend the time between shipments to any interval. I.E. instead of every 30 days, customer can set delivery/billing option to every 43 days instead.
6) Give customer the ability to cancel the continuity and then provide a rules based incentive offer program to SAVE the customer and retain them in the program.
7) Allows the customer to change their method of payment in the continuity program, update credit card expiration dates, etc...
8) Allow a customer to invite their friends to join the program in exchange for a discount on the next months shipment upon successful enrollment by a friend.
9) Allow a customer to add a Gift Subscription and specify the number of months to send that gift subscription via continuity and then auto-end the subscription.
10) Provide buttons in the customer order confirmation page and the order confirmation email page that takes the customer to the self-service portal so they can manage all these functions.
