# FAQ
All the basics questions you need are here.
## What is WiiMart Old Banner?
Remember the Wii Shop Channel with it's old banner from 2006-2007? Yeah well WiiMart has that.
## I have \*this\* error? What should I do?
Look it up on our (in WIP) error checking tool! https://wiimart.org/errors or ask in #support on our [discord server!](https://discord.gg/wiimart)
## Why did the gift options disappear?
Sadly WiiLink does not approve of it and asked us to take it down. We nicely did. Please, do not harass WiiLink's staff or our staff about it or you will not be allowed on our server again (Banning your Wii's IP).
## Do I need real money to buy WiiPoints?
Absolutely not! Well, you will "purchase" them but no debit/credit card will actually be used. It's purely for nostalgia and trying to replicate Nintendo's structure to avoid errors.
## How do I change the region?
In WiiMart, go to Settings and Features > (You will need to scroll down) Change Region > Select your region
## My title says "This channel can't be used." or just has a black screen!
Repeat Step 1 through Step 6 in any console guide (you should not have this error in Dolphin.)
## How do I uninstall WiiMart?
To uninstall WiiMart, use either of these guides:
- [Wii / Wii U](/guide/uninstallation/common.md)
- [Dolphin](/guide/uninstallation/dolphin.md)
## How is the shop doing?
It's been doing great so far! Every (or almost) features of the channel has been used.
## When is \*this\* feature gonna be added?
The developpers of the project are updating the project slowly but surely.
## Will there be an option to switch out the 'WiiMart' name back to 'Wii Shop Channel'?
Of course! It will be in settings, just be patient.
## What information is stored when using WiiMart?
The web server stores IP addresses of those that connect to it, common with web servers. Wii console serial numbers are stored, in the SOAP database with encryption.

# vWii
This guide will be for **vWii** users! *(aka Wii U)*
## Pre-requisites:
- [A modded Wii U console](https://wii.hacks.guide)
- [Priiloader Installer](https://oscwii.org/library/app/priiloader)
- [Load Priiloader](https://oscwii.org/library/app/LoadPriiloader)
- [Yet Another WAD Manager ModMii Edition (YAWM ModMii Edition)](https://oscwii.org/library/app/yawmME)
- [Patched IOS56 for vWii](https://wiimart.org/wad/IOS56(vWii).wad)
- [WiiMart](http://wiimart.org/wad/WiiMart.wad) OR [WiiMart (Old Banner)](http://wiimart.org/wad/WiiMartOB.wad)[^1]
## SD Card
On your SD Card, there are a few files you need to put. Such as the wads for our patched IOS 56 and WiiMart.
1. First, download Priiloader Installer and Load Priiloader. Priiloader is required to make installed apps work.
2. On your SD Card, go to your `apps` folder and drag and drop Yet Another Wad Manager Mod Mii Edition (YAWM Mod Mii Edition); Priiloader Installer and Load Priiloader.
3. Still on your SD Card, create a folder called "wads" if it doesn't already exists. Then, drag and drop the patched IOS56 and WiiMart wads.
4. Safely eject the SD Card and put it back in your console
> [!WARNING]
> If you have a macOS installation, STOP!! There is a Terminal command you need to run to "clean" your SD Card from files called "Archive Bits". They are problematic in terms of Homebrew. In your terminal, simply run the command `dot_clean /Volumes/[Your SD Card's name]` and wait for the process to be finished. Then, you can put the SD Card back in your console.
## Wii U (vWii)
1. Hold + while booting into Aroma or Tiramisu.
2. Select "vWii Homebrew Channel"
3. Once you're in the Homebrew Channel, search for "Priiloader Installer" then load the app
4. Install Priiloader by pressing A
5. Go back to the Homebrew Channel and Load Priiloader.
6. Go to System Menu Hacks and enable the `Region Free EVERYTHING` hack, `Permanent vWii settings`, `Wii System Settings via Options Button` and `Always enable WiiConnect24 on boot`.
7. Go all the way down and save settings. Go to System Menu.
8. Once in the vWii System Menu, go to settings. You will normally see a page that **ISN'T** the save's page. This is normal.
9. Go left once, go to WiiConnect24 and enable it if it isn't already enabled. Then, go back and accept the User agreements.
10. Once you're back to the System Menu, go to the Homebrew Launcher.
11. Once in the Homebrew Launcher, go to YAWM ModMii Edition
12. Press A to select the front SD Card slot. Select `WiiMart.wad`, mark it for installation and repeat for `IOS56(vWii).wad`
> [!NOTE]
> If you get error -1022 or -1029 on WiiMart.wad, you need to mark it for uninstallation then reinstall it. This is totally normal.
13. Go back to the main menu and press HOME (it says it will restart your "wii" but it actually brings you back to the HBC)
14. Press HOME again and go back to System Menu.
15. Open the Wii Shop Channel and it will be WiiMart!
### Congrats! You have successfully installed WiiMart! Enjoy!
