My catalog isn't publishing

[deswar]

I've been setting up my catalog, etc., to take online orders, and although I "publish," no images show up, only my template, header, etc.  I'm not linking it to my website at this time unless I have to, as this is an offshoot of my normal work.  What am I doing wrong?

The top image is from my current live site.  The second is from my catalog where I have all my items set to Visible.  This is the first I've tried to sell online thru Square, I've only used it in person before, so I'm lost and feeling pretty dumb. According to my dashboard, I'm live and should be able to publish, I went through set up and completed that...

HI, need a bit more information to hopefully help.  Catalog meaning adding items to your Online Store?  Not linking to your website meaning your are just trying Square's Online Store?  Can you explain more? Link? or some screenshots?

HI, thank you for the screenshots.  First time ecommerce can be fun and intimidating.  Its OK. 

I do see what the problem may be.  Are you offering your inventory for delivery only equal to a food delivery site?  Per the screenshots I see the site setup as a delivery.  

Are you wanting a regular online sales store?  You can see mine below.

Hope this helps!

I have it set up for shipping, pick up, and delivery options, and everything is marked as a physical item. I was on Etsy for many years and hate them now, so I thought this was going to be a good alternative to that since I've been selling IRL thru Square for many years. I've contacted Square help thru email but heard nothing back so far. Thanks for taking a look.

HI, I just checked your site and items and images are showing up.  It may be the image ratio.  Here is a Square Support page that might help.

It looks like your items are set only for Pickup & Shipping and not Delivery.

When I hit Pickup on your site, all items show up - when I hit Delivery it says no items are available.

Go into your Items section of your Square Online / Weebly Dashboard and double check them there

Wow, thank you, Pesso!!  This did it!  I thought my brain was broken.

Welcome to the Community, @Hippies 😊

Have you already synced your items to the Square Online dashboard? Or are you asking how to display the items on your website? 

Please take a look at the two articles I linked, and let us know if you are still having trouble.

I need it to show in my shop so it shows my inventory to my customers
