FAQ

Where can I get help?

Use the support section on our website

Are there any limits?

Sunshine itself does not impose any limits on galleries, images, users, etc. You may want to check with your web host about your available file storage. There are many great web hosts which offer huge amounts of storage if you do have a host with small disk space limits. Otherwise, Sunshine does integrate with Amazon S3 for infinite file storage via the WP Offload S3 plugin.

What payment gateways can I accept?

Sunshine comes with PayPal, Stripe, and Square out-of-the-box. Stripe and Square are subject to 5% platform fees with the free version, upgrade to remove these platform fees. See all available payment gateways

Is there a demo?

Yes! You can fully demo Sunshine Photo Cart or create your own sandbox environment with full admin access.

Does this work for any currency?

Yes, we make all currencies available

Can I help translate Sunshine?

Yes! Please see our translation site for a list of all active translations, help refine an existing translation, or start a new one.

How can I report security bugs?

I really like this plugin, it has a lot of features all in one place. Dev is super responsive and addresses issues right away. I like having everything done via my WordPress site as opposed to multiple external sites.
12 Oktobra 2023
With 5 star customer service paired with the integrity to put forth an amazing product, Derek at WP Sunshine has created, nothing short of a masterpiece. The workflow and options allow for a rather customized approach to your photography business, and with feedback and requests actually being listened to unlike some other plugins on the market. Sunshine elevated my small photography business and I know it can elevate yours as well.
13 Septambra 2023
I buyed Sunshine 3 because it seemed to be the best option. I was right. The support for implementation was the best i ever encountered in my +20 years since i use wordpress plugins. Derek is the best! He has more patience than anyone! Thank you Sunshine

As a part-time headshot photographer this plugin has been super helpful. Uploading photos and making them available to clients quickly is a huge plus! It's very simple and easy to use too.

So far so good. I'm a new Sunshine user, old photographer, recent WP developer. Love the simple structure, display, and cart features. Derek replies to all support requests, and regular, ongoing support as well. Thank you Sir.
