Activate Cross Sell

  • Go to Configuration > Settings > Shopping Cart Settings and look at the Number of ‘Cross-Sells’ checkbox.

  • If set to ZERO (0), Cross Sell is deactivated across the entire store. No objects will appear, neither in the lightbox or the mini cart.

  • If set to any other integer, the integer will determine the maximum number of items displayed as cross sold items, in the lightbox and the mini cart.

Info

NOTE: Consider the maxim “less is more” and try limiting the number of cross sells to a lower number, effectively increasing the impact of the cross sell presentation, and also being less intrusive to the shopping experience. The default setting is 4.

Language Strings

While the images and copy displayed with the cross sold product are determined by the PDP, there are other areas of customization required by the resort through configurable language strings.

  • Go to Configuration > Languages > English and click Edit.

  • Scroll down to String Resources panel.

  • Search on “crosssell” (one word, no spaces) and edit the following strings to reflect your store.

Detailed Setup Guide

Apply Cross Sell to the Product(s)

Cross Sell is applied at the product level, in a dedicated tab in the PDP. There are two (2) steps involved in applying Cross Sell. The first determines if the cross sold product displays in a lightbox (and if so, at what frequency), or is displayed only in an appended list, at the bottom of the mini cart. The second defines which products are triggered.

  • Go to Catalog > Products and locate the trigger product.

  • Edit the product. Make sure the “Advanced” view of the PDP is selected.

  • Scroll to the bottom of the PDP, where you will see the Cross Sell Tab and Additional Product Settings Tab.

  • On the Cross Sell Tab, expand to see Add new cross-sell Button.

  • Click Add new cross-sell, navigate to the desired product, select it and Save. The selected product will now be displayed as cross sell when the trigger product is added to the cart.
