Top Sellers

 

The Top Sellers routine is a great little function that displays the most frequently purchased items from your store.

You can manage this feature using Layout Manager as described in page 122.

If youhave child products that are among your top sellers, they are displayed in the Top Sellers list preceded by their parent’s name.

For example: Parent Product - Child Product or Triple DVD Cases – 100.

When a customer clicks the name of this product, they will be taken to the full description of the parent product.

If there are products that you think should be showing in the Top Sellers but aren’t, there are several possible reasons for this.

If you have xtopsellersprocessedonly set to Yes and all of the orders for the product are not yet processed, you need to either set xtopsellersprocessedonly = No or process your Orders.

You have the product set to Hide.

The product’s stock level is below the level specified in xstocklow.

You can set the Top Sellers to show all orders or only show orders that have been processed by changing the following Software Configuration option.

Xtopsellersprocessedonly

Setting this to Yes means that only orders that have been marked processed will count towards the Top Seller display.

The display of the Top Sellers is handled by the template tmp_topsellers.htm.
