EDD Integration Overview in Free Astra Theme

Astra integrates nicely with Easy Digital Downloads. All Easy Digital Downloads elements automatically adapt to the rest of your Astra powered website and take colors, fonts out of the box from the theme customizer settings. That way, you can have your shop up and running immediately with minimum setup. Let’s take a look!

Note: Astra Pro extends the options with Easy Digital Downloads Addon. You can refer to our article to know more about the features you get within this EDD addon.

Layout Settings:

Please be sure you have the Easy Digital Downloads plugin installed and activated. Once you have it installed, you will find a dedicated tab for it in customizer settings.

Easy Digital Downloads Tab: 

Under the Easy Digital Downloads tab, you will find further options categorized into further tabs.

Product Archive: 

Here you can control how your archive page looks. Archive page can be Product categories or Product tags pages. You can control:

• Archive Columns: The number of columns for each device.
• Product Structure: Structure of products where you can move elements or disable them. Display or hide product information. Just click on the eye icon.
• Cart Button Text: Set a custom text for Add To Cart button.
