Question:
Can I please have Wix Art Store or Wix Album Store back?
I haven’t used my Wix Art Store and Wix Album Store for a while (or on hidden pages). By the time I opened them again, they no longer functioned. I don’t seem to receive any notification about discontinuing them. Why have they suddenly disappeared and both of them?! These two functions differentiate Wix from other standard commercial platforms like Shopify and Squarespace.
As I photographer, the ability of the Wix Art Store to visualise the photos on different merchandise is precious and can’t be found on other platforms. Please bring back either of those two functions/apps, or come back with an improved app. Please do not get rid of them permanently.
It’s also strange there’s no topics on the disappearance on these two apps. Very strange.

Product:
Wix Art Store, Wix Album Store

What are you trying to achieve:

  1. I’m requesting to have Wix Art Store or Wix Album Store back, or some improved apps as replacements.
  2. I’m also trying to understand why these two apps are suddenly discontinued while customers like me enjoy using them tremendously.

Hey!

As of April 2024, it is no longer possible to add the Wix Photo Albums app to your site. If you already have Wix Photo Albums installed in your site, you should be able to still use the app as normal.

All those using these apps received emails about the apps being discontinued back before April. With all that being said, the recommendation is to use Wix Stores for selling digital products, or to use Wix Pro Gallery/Wix Portfolio for showcasing work :slight_smile:

Hello SteffieM,

I agree, I am so lost without the WIX art store. I had it on an old website that I built and would like to use it for the same company on a newly designed website. Can someone recommend a print on demand application similar to it when it comes to selling art? Looking for something where art customers can pick what they would like, instead of two choices that keeps telling me my art is not the right size.
