I’ve added mine as well. Hopefully I will now start appearing on your sites!

September 13, 2016 at 11:09 pm #27917I’m not really seeing that with my site. I had about 100 page views a week before we did it and around the same number afterwards. I seem to get page views on specific image pages and relatively few on my home page, suggesting people are finding a specific image on the web and linking to that product page. However, they always leave without buying. It is a long time since I had a sale…
How are the rest of you doing with sales? Are they photos or illustrations (I always thought illustrations sell better on these sites than photos)?

August 16, 2016 at 9:34 am #27666It is in Symbiostock: Settings: Thumbnails. Here you can upload your watermark image.
However, I am pretty sure that the system takes that watermark and runs through all the images that you have in the system and puts that watermark on them. So that allows you to change your watermark at any time in the future, but I don’t think it is selective – if you upload a watermark then every file gets it. Even so, the watermark is on the thumbnails, not the final images for download.
As I understand your requirement you would be better adding watermarks to your files before uploading if you want them to stay with the image all the way to the final user.

August 8, 2016 at 11:33 pm #27562Are you uploading them separated by commas in the Jpeg? When you look at the edit page on Symbiostock:Media for one of your images, do you see all the product tags as separate words?

August 3, 2016 at 4:32 am #27486Hi Christine
The best thing is to forget all you knew about the old Symbiostock – this is nothing like that!
I created four licenses for my site, for small, medium, large and full size. In each license you can add the price. When you upload media, the licenses automatically get added to it and the system is able to create those various sizes ready for download when someone buys it.
The correct version of WooCommerce is 2.5.5
I did write about my efforts to create my site:

August 3, 2016 at 4:17 am #27485I thought that was the choice that you make in Symbiostock Express to select the Advanced Woo Search Plugin? Did I misunderstand?

August 3, 2016 at 12:17 am #27481Thanks George – do you set this Make menu search results only products? to Yes?
August 2, 2016 at 4:38 am #27473Although I think I have managed this a different way – I put a search widget in the topbar and so that now appears on my iPad as well as my new mobile menu, so I think I am now covered.
Now I can sit back and wait for the sales!

August 2, 2016 at 4:22 am #27472Great – I’ve got that now with a few items in the mobile menu, but how do you add a search icon or box to that mobile menu? The theme allows you to add search to the primary menu in its settings.

August 2, 2016 at 2:01 am #27470Hi George
I see yours. In the Symbiostock Express settings (under Menu Settings), I see the option for “Mobile Menu Only Show Button” and I have this set to Yes. Is that the setting you are talking about re the mobile menu?
Steve
July 25, 2016 at 7:55 am #27386The two aren’t related. You can sell your images in whatever size and whatever license you want on your own site, and then use the Symzio default pricing. It might look strange for them to be free under a creative commons license (although I don’t know if they have to be free) and then sell them on Symzio, but that is up to you.

I put the suggested boilerplate text as the description of the image and then put my own words in the text on the page.

July 24, 2016 at 1:50 am #27358Count me in as well. I also think the different unique ways our sites are described by each contributor will add interest to it. I’m not expecting many people to actually go to those pages and read the text, but Google certainly will!
