Tyche starter sites
Six complete stores you can import into Tyche in about thirty seconds: products with real options, pages, journal posts and photographs. Each one is a different kind of shop, because a demo that only sells T-shirts teaches you nothing about selling coffee by the kilo.
Import a starter, change the words and photographs for your own, and you have a shop. Change your mind and remove it again: everything it created comes out, and anything of yours it touched goes back the way it was.
Tyche
Knitwear and basics
The shop the theme was designed around: a seasonal edit, product carousels and a size guide. Start here if you sell clothing.
19 products, 10 variations · 6 pages · 3 journal posts · 23 photographs
Roastery
Coffee roaster
Sixty variations from two bag sizes and three grinds, brew guides, an origin table and a wholesale enquiry page. Its look is dark.
16 products, 60 variations · 7 pages · 3 journal posts · 30 photographs
Stride
Sneakers and streetwear
Built around drops: a countdown to Saturday at ten, a release calendar, and sizes that are already sold out because that is what a drop looks like.
15 products, 71 variations · 7 pages · 3 journal posts · 28 photographs
Verdant
Houseplants and pots
Filed by the light a room actually has rather than by species, with pet safety as a filter and a care guide that answers what will live where.
18 products, 36 variations · 6 pages · 3 journal posts · 30 photographs
Oakhouse
Furniture and homeware
Nothing in stock: every piece is made to order in one of three finishes, with dimensions and weights on every page and a trade programme.
13 products, 15 variations · 8 pages · 3 journal posts · 26 photographs
Pantry
Groceries and delivery
Sold by weight, ordered by ten at night and delivered tomorrow in a slot you pick. Its header is a search field, because nobody browses a greengrocer.
38 products, 10 variations · 5 pages · 3 journal posts · 49 photographs
How it works
- Install TycheFree. Until 2.0 is through review at WordPress.org, install it from the zip, along with WooCommerce.
- Install Tyche CompanionThe starter sites, the free-delivery bar, the sticky add-to-cart bar and the badges live in the plugin, because a theme on WordPress.org is not allowed to add them.
- Appearance › Starter sitesBrowse the six, then import the whole store or only the look.
- Make it yoursEdit anything in the Site Editor. Nothing is locked, and there is no page builder to learn.

Only the look, if you already have a catalogue. An import can bring the design, the header, the footer and the homepage layout and leave your own products and pages alone.
The photographs are yours to use. Every photograph in every starter is CC0, and each one is credited to its photographer in the package. They are meant to be replaced with your own, but nothing breaks if you keep them.
Removing really removes. The importer records everything it creates. Removing a starter deletes exactly that, keeps anything you have since used, and puts your site title, home page and permalinks back where they were.
