I’ve tried to set up static page via the reading settings, but it’s not working properly: the page is keep loading the product item repeatedly with no end.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, Well Wisher, thanks for your feedback.
That's what I've done as I wrote before. I have seen the guide through the link you provided, but I didn't find what I mean.

Well Wisher,

The first, I'm using the latest version of the WallPress theme (v1.1.7). The second, If you mean the similar issue is this: http://cmspioneer.com/designwall/question/there-are-blank-posts-showing-up-on-my-main-page/, the issue is actually different, because I was talking about Jigoshop product page, not the blog page (posts index page).

Well, to make it more clear, please see my website where I have set Jigoshop product page as the home page: http://belifoto.com/

i thought you used the word "repeatedly" in your question description well that gives me a solid reason to relate with the problem thread i suggested,second i dont see any thing on your website except the navigation menu make sure your visitors are able to see your products by checking your site after loging out of your admin account.
Third the only way i was able to see something on your site was by searching some random keyword for eg "shop" through search bar which dint loaded anything but the pages of your site.

I'm sorry, while waiting for your reply, I have refreshing my website. Now please check again, I have created a website on a subdomain and set it as the previous website. Scroll down the home page to see what I mean: http://test.belifoto.com/

Hi, Unfortunately, Jighoshop plugin does not support for setting Product category in order to display on the home page at the moment.

Hi, Dominic. I've tried setting up Jigoshop products page as the home page on another theme and there is no problem. I think, the problem on the WallPress theme is the Infine-scroll feature. In localhost, I tried to disable Infine-scroll and replace it with WP PageNavi plugin, then I set Jigoshop products page as the home page and also no problem. Unfortunately, because infinite-scroll feature is one that makes the WallPress theme so interesting.

I have also tried disabling the WallPress’s infinite-scroll feature and replace it with Infinite-Scroll plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/infinite-scroll/), the same problem occurs also.
