Edit Catalog - Getting Started

Top  Previous  Next

Catalog pages are dynamically generated by catalogue.php for customers to make selections, and purchase products. Shopping pages may also be created by including separate components of catalogue.php within custom HTML or PHP web pages and by inserting Buy buttons in HTML or PHP web pages using the Order-Link method. In any case, the behavior of the shopping cart when products are added to the cart will be determined by the Shopping Cart Catalog Mode setting, which is in Store Configuration > Shop Parameters.

 

To manage the catalog, open the Administration Panel and click on the Edit Catalog menu link.

Before adding products to the catalog, set the thumbnail image size in Layout.

Product images are automatically resized when uploaded through the Files menu. Resizing is done using ImageMagick or GD software, depending on which software is installed on the server. If the thumbnail image size is later changed, all of the previously uploaded images must be resized again.

 

Add at least one category, then add products.
