Genesis Connect for WooCommerce

This plugin replaces WooCommerce's default shop templates with Genesis-ready versions for the single product page, main shop page, and Product Category and Product Tag archive pages. You can easily customize these templates by placing your own copies in your child theme's 'woocommerce' folder. The plugin also makes Genesis Simple Sidebars and Genesis Simple Menus compatible with WooCommerce.
