Featured Products
Highlighting specific products in your store
Featured Products allow you to highlight products for display in various places.
Once you have created some featured products, Zen Cart has a number of ways for you to show them off:
- the built-in Featured Products page, which appears when you navigate to
YOURSITE.com/index.php?main_page=featured_products
. - the optional Featured Products Sidebox
- the optional Featured Products Centerbox
You may also configure featured products to appear in the following places:
- on an empty shopping cart page with the setting on Admin > Configuration > Stock
- on the main page using the settings on Admin > Configuration > Index Listing
- below a product listing page using the settings on Admin > Configuration > Index Listing
Adding a product to the featured products list is done on the Admin > Catalog > Featured Products page.
The display of items on the Featured Products page is controlled as follows:
- In v2.0.0 and higher, on the Admin > Configuration > Product Listing page. Setting the Display values on this page is described in greater detail in New Listing - Featured Listing - All Listing configuration settings.
- In v1.5.8a and lower, on the Admin > Configuration > Featured Listing page. Setting the Display values on this page is described in greater detail in New Listing - Featured Listing - All Listing configuration settings for v1.x.x.
Note: Zen Cart 2.1.0 introduces the ability to feature categories as well as products.
