Popular goods are the products your customers are most interested in. Goods collection is filled in automatically based on your site statistics.
You can specify the number of Popular Products for the home page in Configuration → Website configuration → Home page section.
Add goods to collection
Goods collection is filled in automatically based on your site statistics. You can influence collection contents with the help of Restrictions. However, goods restriction for display will affect “Popular goods” collection as well as the product itself in the catalog (for example, the product cannot be ordered if the permission to purchase is not configured in advance).
Display “Popular goods” on the home page
You can specify the number of Popular Products for the home page in Configuration → Website configuration → Home page section.
You can set any number of products but we recommend no more than 20 to make website quicker, as well as no less than 8 to preserve the aesthetic appearance of the home page.
Design of collection and location on the home page depend on website design.
Clear collection of popular goods
Внимание!
Clearing a collection does not transfer products to the black list (Restrictions), as “Delete” button does!
You can delete all goods from collection with "Clear collection" button. Clearing a collection does not affect products in any way.
Open “Popular goods” in Catalog → Collections → Popular goods section:
Click "Clear collection" button.
Since this action is irreversible (it will not be possible to restore the collection after cleaning), you must confirm action by clicking "Yes" button (or "Cancel" button if you change your mind).
"Popular goods" collection will be built from scratch after cleaning.
Working with collection items
Edit item
You can edit goods in “Popular goods” collection — change name, description and also product photo which will be shown on the home page.
Since the collection is created automatically, sooner or later the product may disappear from it, ceasing to be popular. However, even after disappearing from the collection, the product will remain edited.
We recommend editing “Popular goods” to make it easier for your customers to browse and select a product. After all, you can customize the title, description and photo to suit your target audience.
Open “Popular goods” collection in Catalog → Collections → Popular goods section.
Click "Edit" button (with a pencil image) in the upper right corner above the product.
A form will open where you can edit product name, description and also upload another photo of the product which will become the main one.
Add necessary corrections and click "Save" button.
After saving changes will be visible on website and admin panel in “Popular goods” collection and product card.
Swap products
It's impossible to swap products.
Product position in collection is determined by site statistics which puts the most Popular goods in the first places.
Delete product from collection
You can “Remove” goods from collection not to show certain types of products in this block (for example, products for adults or certain brands).
However, the item will not be deleted at all, it will go to the list of items Restrictions.
Restrictions products are not allowed for sale by default, but sale can be allowed without returning them to the home page of the site.
We recommend setting up a restriction to display through a product category (for example, adult products, alcohol, etc.) or through a brand (for example, H&M, Adidas, etc.) if you don't want to display a whole group of products on the home page.
Delete product from collection. Open “Popular goods” collection in Catalog → Collections → Popular goods section:
Select product you want to delete and click "Delete" button (cross in the right corner above the product).
Для подтверждения действия, нажимаем кнопку “Да” (или “Нет”, если передумали).
Товар будет перемещен в список товаров Restrictions. Вернуть его оттуда можно, зайдя в раздел Catalog → Restrictions → Goods
