Bison Example Theme

This demo website is an example of how you can use Statamic and Bison to create a simple ecommerce website.

It definitely does not show all the features of Bison. For full documentation, visit the Bison website.

Feel free to use this as a starting point for your own site, or as a learning tool.
It should not be used as-is.

2. Install a copy of Bison as per the documentation.
3. Replace the _content directory.
4. Copy across _themes/bison_example and change the _theme setting to bison_example.

About the theme

Product types

Products are split into separate folders to demonstrate different usage examples.

• "Simple" products have either no options or they use a basic grid field to specify a single set of basic price modifiers. A single stock level can be managed for the entire product.
• "Complex" products contain the product option matrix fieldtype, which allows them to have multiple sets of options and price modifiers, each of which get their own stock level.
• A "Variable price" product is one where the user is able to choose the price. There is only one on here, and it's the donation.

You can view the content md files and/or the fieldsets to get a better understanding.

Tax

The tax_rate has been set to 10%.
The donation product has been marked as 'tax free'.

Shipping

The shipping method is multiple_flat_rate with two options.
You can choose from the flat rates on the checkout/shipping page.

Checkout

The Dummy gateway is used for checking out.
If you want to use Stripe, there are partials in templates/checkout_3 and layouts/default ready to be swapped out. You'll need to add your private API key to bison.yaml and your public key to the javascript partial.

Control Panel

The orders and discounts folders have been hidden from the 'Pages' tab in the CP. You can access these through the "Store" section.
