1. Navigate to Content → Pages & Templates
2. Select Products
3. Edit the Product List Item Zoned Template
4. Choose a zone in which to add the Product Variant Grid Widget. In our example, we added it to the Column2Right zone.
5. Follow steps 9 to 11 from the Previous Section to add the widget to this zone.
6. As per the previous section, decide whether to turn the Heading Text on or off and save your changes.
7. You should see the widget in your Product List Item Zoned Template.
8. Publish your changes to your CSS.
What will your customer see?
1. Go to your CSS and search for the same product you used in the previous section. In our example, we are searching for High Visibility Waterproof Safety Trousers.
2. In LIST view, your customer can select the product variations and add to their cart all from the search results window.
3. In GRID view, the selection isn't available, as the display allocated to each product in grid mode doesn't leave much room.
4. Based on the discrepancy in display, you may want to disable the Product Variant Grid from displaying in List or Grid mode and only show when the customer clicks on the product.
Other widgets that control your customer's view
1. You can disable existing widgets to change what your customer sees when viewing products with variants.
2. Navigate to Content → Pages & Templates → Products
3. Edit the Product List Item Zoned Template
4. Disable the Product List Attributes widget, the Product List Qty Box widget, and the Product List Add to Cart widget. In our example, they are all located in Zone:Column2Bottom.
5. When your customer now searches for the product with variants, they will see only the Product Variant Grid to easily make their selection.
Let's look at another display adjustment. This time, the product detail view.
6. When your customer clicks on the product, by default, the main variant selector displays in conjunction with the Product Variant Grid widget. This
Having two variant option displays gives the customer a choice on how to choose their size and colour, but it may also create confusion
.. Let's remove the variant selector (outlined in red) and leave the variant grid in place.
7. Navigate to Content → Pages & Templates → Products
8. Edit the Product Detail Template
9. The Product Purchase Details widget is the one we want to disable. However, it also controls the price display , which and many other features, so for the features that we want to keep, we need to displayadd those widgets individually.
10. Select We definitely want to display the price, so we need to select to
and locate the Product Price widget search for Product Price.
11. Do you want to show the price that includes or excludes GST? Choose the widget according to your business practices and add it to the same zone as the Product Variant Grid widget.
1112. Accept the default values, Enable widget on Save, and click Save.
1213. Go to CSS and click on your master product to view the Product Variant Grid selection.
14. Review the other options in the Product Purchase Details widget (the one we just disabled) to see what other features you would like to keep.
a. For instance, do you want to display the Recommended Retail Price (RRP)? If so, click
b. Your customers may often make use of the Favourites Button, if so, add the Favourites widget back in.
c. The Availability Widget will show your customers if products are in or out of stock.
d. If you offer your customers Afterpay, you may want to add the Afterpay Order Summary widget into the zone.
Basically, any option in the Product Purchase Details widget can be added back in as a single widget. Adding them individually gives you the opportunity to reorder them or place them in different zones.
15. Your final Product Detail Template may look something like the following. As you can see, the system gives you the flexibility to add widgets individually into zones that complement your site's layout.
