Embed SINGLE product from Ecwid in page or post
-
I have a WP Business account, and a paid Ecwid account (Venture). I understand the difference between self-hosted and WP hosting. (Just thought I would get that out of the way ;-)
I had no problem configuring and adding my store to my blog:
Store – We are not able to process orders online at this time, please call for assistance
It was also very easy to create pages and posts and embed specific Ecwid categories (or sub-categories) of products using the following shortcode:
[ecwid id=”4765212″ widgets=”productbrowser” grid=”3,3″ list=”9″ table=”9″ category_view=”grid” search_view=”list” default_category_id=”9749376″ layout=”floating”]
Here is the resulting, successful page:
However, I cannot find a simple, direct method to add a SINGLE product to a page or post.
As a workaround, I created an (unneeded) Ecwid sub-category containing one product and used the following shortcode:
[ecwid id=”4765212″ widgets=”productbrowser” category_view=”list” search_view=”list” default_category_id=”9835459″]
in order to make it work on this page:

Surely there is a more direct method using a shortcode and identifying the product by its unique ID.
Any help is much appreciated!

Hi Vernon,
Unfortunately, it looks like it wouldn’t be possible to embed Ecwid by product IDs. The only way would be by categories. If you look at our support guide here the only way to separate out products would be via categories:

I’m sorry I couldn’t be of more help.

Thank you, Grace for looking in to this…
It almost sounds like an oversight not to have addressed this issue with a simple shortcode for product IDs.
