An attractive and effective product display makes online shoppers buy more items on your website. To enhance how items are displayed in your product page, the Connected Business team has created more elegant and stylish XML package designs applicable for matrix items. Promoting on-hand products with different variants can now be displayed in different ways through these new XML package layouts.
Matrix group items’ display format can be modified through the Item form > Web Option> Settings tab. On the XML package drop down, select the different formats designed for matrix items.
