Make sure you have the store setup properly. Section setup is important, as noted on the last few posts on this thread:

We're hoping to get an update out to address some of these issues within the next few weeks, that may help simplify the process a bit.

Per your link, it appears the answer was:

_RE: Any news or fix for CP 2.2? - Added by Bob Randklev 17 days ago

We found the problem and it's amazing we've been chasing something this simple for since June 2010.

I'm surprised this isn't documented on your site but trust form here forward no one else will have this problem.
Slashdraw was using "sections" to build their home page and the "products" area was empty._

Simply put, you don't support 'Sections' yet?

Well, That's not gonna work. I have over 242 'sections' in my store.

Has anyone resolved this yet? The remark above mine is not clear.

What information do I need to enter into the sections field? Do I need to create a wordpress category called products? No answer obtained yet and this is getting frustrating.

Pamela -

Did you checkout the setup guide here?

@Billie - yes, the product supports sections. We just tested a premium store and you can select a section as both a global default (admin panel MoneyPress : CafePress Edition Settings) and in the shortcode itself [mp-cafepress section_id='99999'].

In fact with a premium account you MUST specify a section ID.

Thank you for the reply:

Please enlighten me on what I am doing wrong, because my posts still show 'no products to display'.

Billie - I am unable to get products to come up from your store ID as well, even using your API key.

Are you running in beta mode at CafePress by any chance? That setting does not appear on our account so I can't tell you where to find it, but other clients are on the pre-release program and NONE of the CafePress API calls work on the beta system.

The sad part is CafePress has been promising an API update for 11 months now & we're still waiting. It would fix some of these product lookup issues.

Check your account profile at CafePress and make sure you are not on a beta release.

I have not signed up for anything 'beta' - all I can find on beta services is:

CafePress Shops (BETA)

The retail prices for products featured in your CafePress Shop are fixed and determined by CafePress. If you choose to receive royalties for products sold through your CafePress Shop the royalty rate is 10% of the retail price paid by the consumer. Certain products are not available in through CafePress Shops. CafePress Shops sales are not eligible for the Shop Performance Bonus and are not featured in the CafePress Marketplace.

I am not a part of that. I just have a normal Premier shop.
