Recommended Products
You have several options to promote other products alongside a product by either adding recommended product families or by adding related products to a product.
You can add previously created product families to your products to promote other products in certain product groups. Recommended products will usually appear below the product detail page at the storefront.
The recommended products families section:
The select box at the left side list all currently available product families that were not added to this product yet.
To add a product family to a product, select a product family on the left select box (available recommended product families) and click on the arrow pointing to the select box at the right side (recommended product families for this product). The selected item will be added to the recommended product families for this product list.
To remove a product from the recommended product families for this product list, select a product family in this select box and click on the arrow pointing to the available recommended product families list. The product family will be removed and re-added to the list with the available product families.
You can also doubleclick with your mouse on any item on the list to either add or remove it to the product’s recommended product families.
You can also define related products that are promoted when customers go to a product details page or at checkout. Related products are usually products that might be of interest for customers who buy certain products.
e.g.: Customers who buy a computer mouse, may also be interested in buying a mouse pad.
The related products section:
Related products can be placed at two positions, at the product’s page or at the checkout/cart page. While the details page will only feature related products for one product, the related products at the checkout page will be chosen for all products a customer added to his cart.
To add related products for a product enter the product id either at the product page field or the checkout page field. To add several related products, enter the product ids separated by comma.
As soon as you start typing, the integrated search will open a pop-up and show you any matches for the partial product id you entered. You can select a product id from this list and it will be added to the field.
After you added any recommended product families or related products to a product, press the save button at the bottom of the page to save the changes.
