Our site is built, so now we need to get a few things cleaned up so that we get our site live and start taking orders. We start by changing the front page by adding a new view and adding a contact form. We also look at how to use blocks to add additional information to the site, and discuss removing them from the checkout process to minimize distractions. An important part of taking online payments is having secure payment processes, so we also talk about using SSL and how the Secure Pages module can help with that. Lastly we look at getting a new theme for your site. We go over where you can find paid themes that work well with Commerce out of the box, as well as some free contributed themes.
