Double-click a Product Catalog Object that you have inserted in the page layout table or select it and click on the
button to open the Product Catalog Object window. Here, you can create a list of all the products that you want to present and indicate how each product card is to be displayed.
You can present a variable number of products in a single Product Catalog Object. You don't have to establish this number before you start: a product card will be created for each product you add to the list, and each card will be added to the same page.
▪ | The Category and Product List shows all the products in the e-commerce shopping cart, ordered by category. You can: |
• | Click (to tick) each product you want to include in the list. |
• | Click on a category to automatically include all the products in it. If you subsequently add new products to the category, these will be automatically added to the Product Catalog Object. |
|
Every product in a Product Catalog Object is presented on a card created automatically by the Program. You can define the style of these cards:
▪ | Open the Product Catalog Object | Settings window and choose the display type. For example, if you choose Cover on the left, title and contents on the right, the product's cover picture will be displayed on the left and the information on the product will be on the right in all the cards. |
▪ | Use the options available for indicating how many cards must be shown per row, their height, the size of the cover picture and the margins. |
▪ | Indicate which items in the cards must be displayed, and the graphics (font, color, borders and margins). |
▪ | If you are using the Pro edition, you can complete the product card with rosettes that highlight the new products or special offers. |
The cards created by the Product Catalog Object are a quick and efficient way of presenting the products in your catalog of the online store. Alternatively, you can create the product presentation pages manually, but don't forget to add the "Buy now" button.
