WooCommerce Genesis Connect not integrating

[notfarnow]

It seems like many are having issues integrating WooCommerce with Genesis 2.0 and some of the newer Pro themes.

I am using Outreach Pro
Genesis Connect for WooCommerce 0.9.7
Genesis 2.0.2
Genesis Style Trump

I have everything installed properly and have added:
add_theme_support( 'genesis-connect-woocommerce' );
add_theme_support ( ‘woocommerce’ );

to my functions.php file yet I am still getting the error:
Your theme does not declare WooCommerce support – if you encounter layout issues please read our integration guide or choose a WooCommerce theme 🙂

Also the genesis CSS is being overridden still.

Should I deactivate Genesis Connect for WooCommerce and do the theme integration manually?
OR keep it active and do the theme integration manually?
OR is Genesis Connect going to support the newer themes out of the box in a future release?

Thanks!

As you posted this over two months ago, I hope you were able to get your issue resolved. If not, report back and I'll try to escalate for you.

If it is resolved, please go ahead and mark it as resolved, so it can be closed.

This is still not working... It looks like many are having the same issue. I'm getting the dreaded: orry! In order to use the Genesis Connect for WooCommerce plugin you need to do the following:

Add this code to your child theme's functions.php:
add_theme_support( 'genesis-connect-woocommerce' );

Even though I've already added it with the Enterprise theme.

Please help thanks!

Does Woo Commerce work without the Genesis Connect plugin?

I would try integrating manually without the Genesis connect plugin being active.

@notfarnow, are you still using the Enterprise theme, or did you fully switch to the Outreach Pro theme?

If you switched, you also have to add the all of theme support code for WooCommerce to the functions.php of Outreach Pro.

Since Enterprise is no longer the active theme, WordPress won't even look at that theme's functions.php to know about the plugin support being added.

Good point, Summer!

Thanks Y'all! Yeah I added the code to both functions.php files. I ended up finding the solution with quotes. You can see in my initial post is
add_theme_support( ‘genesis-connect-woocommerce’ );
which is incorrect. The correct way is
add_theme_support( 'genesis-connect-woocommerce' );
It doesn't always translate properly when copy and pasting.

so make sure to use ' NOT ‘

In the posts here in the forums, without using the "code" tag or pastebin, it's impossible to tell the difference between regular quotes and "smart" quotes, but yeah, I know what you mean 🙂
