Introduction
Configio allows you to display a set of Featured Products in your customer cart at the top of the search results. Featured Products are a great tool for Configio admins to emphasize new or promoted Products within the customer cart.
Getting Started
Before creating a Featured Product, you must enable the "Enable featured product in search" Configuration. To do this, navigate to Settings>Configuration and search for "featured." Under Products, you will see "Enable featured product in search." Change the toggle to ON.
There are three other optional Configurations that may be helpful when using Featured Products:
- Hide featured Products from admin Product selection
- The maximum number of items that can be shown in the Featured Products section
- The maximum number of Products that are able to be listed in the Featured Products section in the customer cart
- The title of the Featured Products section to show at the top of the shopping cart
- When changed, the Featured Product header in the customer cart will display the text entered into this Configuration
Once you've made all requested changes, select Save to finalize your selections.
Featuring via the Product's Advanced Tab
You can use the Product's Advanced Tab to indicate that it should be featured. About halfway down the Cart Options section, there is a "Featured Product Options" dropdown. The values are:
- Not Featured
- Featured Across All Products
- Featured Within Search
Choose "Featured Within Search" if you want the Product to be featured only when it is in the search results. Click the "Save" button.
Featured Products and Variations
Individual variations of Master Products are not displayed within Search Results. Therefore, it is a best practice to just set the Featured Product Option on the Master.
Sorting Featured Products
If you have multiple Featured Products but want to control the order in which they appear, you can use the Sort Order feature. In the Product's Advanced tab under Cart Options, you can enter in the number of which you'd like the Product to appear (for example, 1 indicates it would be the first listed, 2 would be the second, and so on).
Viewing your Featured Products in the Cart
In the customer cart, you can see that your Featured Products are listed above the non-Featured Products.
NOTE: Featured Products will also appear in the customer cart among non-Featured Products.
