Reopen store with new template

 -  Store Site
Creating a site that didn't disappoint was a battle with myself.

We made you wait two years after Reason for temporary suspension of sales of materials and manufactured goods. I think I built 3-4 websites during this period, including my own backup management mistakes. However, you can see the difference in the layout that has been restarted this time when you compare it to the video Confused by the multilingual migration of the store!.

I got fed up with the template that I had been using for nearly 7 years due to its many problems, so I decided to part ways with it at the end of November 2023. Templates that have been left unused for several years without being revised or improved can become obsolete, even if they are familiar.

If you have the funds, you can build a website without wasting time by using a major domestic e-commerce shop. However, with limited funds, I used my web building knowledge and time to find a new template and start from scratch.

The goal is to reopen by March 2024.

Within the limited time of 3 months, we determined that it would be impossible to build on WordPress, which is widely used in Japan.

In the end, Joomla was the only option and I decided to use the skills I had acquired over the years to build it in a modern way.

After overcoming various problems, we were able to create a site that was more user-friendly than we had originally planned.

There are still some things that need to be fixed, but I think the site is now more stable than originally planned, including security.
