Similar to others, my default emails are all set to some type of delivery theme/setting when I am only shipping. What gives? I can't edit the content and all the subject lines of the test messages are - Your download is ready. Please provide an updated solution or confirm how i can test the buy flow - can I test in preview mode or do I need to publish to test end to end?

I'm sorry for the confusion, @wobblymonkey The default text you see is an example of what the email will look like depending on the fulfillment type. If you are only shipping you can disregard the extra information about delivery or digital downloads. 

You can test a purchase on your live site by creating a zero dollar object (make sure to enter a "0" in the price field when setting up the item) or you can create a coupon for 100% off. We do this often when testing customer sites. 

Thanks @Bernadette for getting back to me. I have tried the 0 test cycle to see the email but my checkout functions are not working. All my items are "not available" and my items are set up.

its crazy how much of a puzzle it is to simply be able to customize our emails. i think it could use a re-do, whatevers going on here is not easy to figure out and looks to be confusing more people than helping

What is the address of your website, @wobblymonkey? There's usually one of a couple reasons why your products will say they are unavailable, i.e. you haven't connected to a checkout provider, the fulfillment method set for the items hasn't been set up yet, etc.

@Adam  - wobblymonkeystudio.com is the site. I have signed up with Square as my provider. I had shipping set up at one point but change it to local delivery only to "band aid" the site for now. Any insight would be great

Thanks! It looks like you have the Personal plan, which doesn't support selling any products. You'll need to upgrade to Pro for up to 25 products (anything higher than that supports selling an unlimited number of products).
