Hi Hogan, the video is much helpful. I have questions: 1. Can I use the Themify Theme instead of the one you downloaded on the Alidropship Official Website? 2. It seemed that when I edited the product in WordPress's product column, the text content just didn't show even after I updated the product page. Does this mean I can only edit Aliexpress products before I import them to my website? Thanks! Harvey

Hi Hogan, great video, thank you for it! A question, at 35:00 mins in you talk about pricing - Once you added your items to your store it said SALE. I have this appear on every single one of my imported products too but i cannot work out why the sale sticker is there or how to get rid of it. Do you have any suggestions?
Hi Hogan and thanks again for an awesome tutorial!! I saw another of your tutorials where you used the themeify theme, you mention alidropship in that tutorial as well... my question is: the alidropship plugin to use with the themify theme is the alidropship for woocommerce right?
@HoganChua

Hi Valeria, Alidropship has 2 Versions - 1 version (alidropship woo) which is compatible with Themify and other themes & WooCommerce. And another (alidropship) which is compatible with the themes that alidropship makes. So in this specific video we use the one that alidropship created - because i thought it would be easier for beginners. But if you purchase the license you get both versions. If you use themify + alidropship woo - it's more customizable, but takes a little longer to build :)
Hello, Do you know a plugin to add trust badges? Am using another theme, and I have dropified installed. Thank you
TRAFFIC TRAFFIC TRAFFIC! Hogan, these tutorials are brilliant but do you have videos that show us how to drive traffic to our stores like fb ad videos? Thx. :)
Hi Hogan. Great video man! Are you able to add your own suppliers? Outsource not just from aliexspress? Thanks
Much appreciated , You clarified so many practical problems. Thanks a lot , I have few questions. Hope you can help me . How to sell certain products only to certain countries. ( due to shipping restriction).

Dear Hogan. Thanks for your KZread video on AliDropship Tutorial. It was a good video to people who are new to ecommerce like me. Can you help me understand how the fulfilment works in AliDropship? Can the fulfilment be automated or must you place the order manually? I am lost at the last part of your video. Thanks.
Thanks Hogan for a great tutorial - another one I have enjoyed following. I am having immense problems installing the Alidropship 7.2 plugin. My host provider is Ionos (as I have used them before) and they are running PHP version 7.3 or 7.4 or 8.0. I have tried all version without success. Are you able to provide any help or suggestions please? Many thanks, John.
Hi, Hogan Chua I'm doing a page with Themify Shoppe and Alidropship. Of course, I must configure Alidroship but you consider that I must also configure the Woocommerce? Do not conflict one program with another? In the video of the multilingual Dropshipping you made, there are several plugins like invoices, etc, etc. Do you consider it necessary to place all the design of the page Shoppe Multilingual with respect to Alidropship? I am mainly referring to the plugins. Thanks
Hello Hogan. Thank you for this awesome video. I have a question. Do you know how I can split product variations with alidropship woo ? From one aliexpress product to several products on my shop. If alidropship update it the split will be cancelled.

Hi Hogan! I just have 3 questions: do we need to have contact with the suplier before using their products in our website also about stock availability? And when the client receives the package doesnt it say aliexpress on the package? and about shipping times dont they get upset about waiting a full month or more to get it ? Thank you !
@HoganChua
3 жыл бұрын
Yes. You can definitely contact them first to see if they are responsive and have any questions regarding actual shipping times. And you can request not to add any marketing materials. But the address will say its from china. But thats one of the sacrifices we need to make cause we are not designing our own boxes etc. Shipping times - always be upfront to customer and keep in touch regular assuring them. But not all countries will be 1 month. Check with supplier which countries are faster - it can be an opportunity.
Dear Hogan, thanks for making this video. Helps A LOT! Need some help here...I can't find the shipping and payment in the setting menu.!?
Hi Hogan, great job for sharing the knowledge for free ,am actually following up to build my first ever website but i got stock at a stage i need help thanks
Hi Hogan, first thanks for the time you put into delivering great content, now I'm having some issues, I purchased the AliDropship Plugin and Downloaded the Reuben Theme and So far all was able to be installed without problems, but now if I try to Change a product description header when I hit Publish it gives me a 303 Forbidden Error page, also if I click on the SHOP button on the header slider it gives me a 404 Error page. Why is that and How can I Fix it please, and thanks.
Hi Hogan what if my laptop won't take 7.3/7.2? I so much enjoyed yourTutorial it is saving me some money. I hope you have other tutorials how to use this for other stores like FB, Twitter ect.
I know this was two years ago but can I use social rabbit plug in as well ? Thanks
Hi Hogan please let me ask you this!!!! So I'm a beginner with tight budget.... I trying to set up a store on my own too... So can i do dropship without having to pay for apps!?!! Can we just used woocommerce and install themes like Zakra theme and upload all images and description by ourselves!!! The woocommerce has integrated payment gateway right!!!!... So if I get an order, the money would go straight to my paypal and then I can just fullfill order in aliexpress on my own!!
