 * I;m looking to use WooCommerce exclusively for downloads (virtual/digital). Is
   there a way to completely remove/override the inventory/stock functionality so
   it does not appear in the backend when adding and editing a product?
 * Basically I want all products by default to have unlimited quantity. I plan to
   let vendors add products and I don’t want them becoming confused about needing
   to enter quantity.

 * Go to Admin page > WooCommerce > Settings > Products page > Inventory tab. Ensure“
   Manage Stock” is unchecked. Now when a product is edited, the Inventory tab allows
   only either In stock (the default) or Out of stock.

 * Awesome, thanks!
 * Any idea what the best approach for renaming “Product(s)” to “Game(s)” would 
   be? Do I need to change every value in the language files? If so, was not quite
   sure where the files should go to not get over-written on plugin update.

 * Look for the Codestyling Localisation plugin. It gives a warning message which
   WooThemes tells us we can ignore:
