Random Sample Feature

The random sample feature allow you to add 3 or 4 images in a row to any page. The primary intent is to allow you to add a few sample images to your homepage. The images will rotate each time a visitor acesses the page, so they will view different images with each visit.

The feature allows you to set 3 images each 200 pixels wide or 4 images each 150 pixels wide. You can link the pics to the actual item pages or just display them as plain images.

You can also display the Name, Price and Description below the images if you choose. You can set the options from the main shopping cart page under the link "Random Feature Settings".

The feature can be added to any page using the inclusion code %%include-randomsample%%. You can use it on as many pages as you want, but it is not recomended. However it is a great way to display your products on article pages or non shopping pages that would not otherwise expose readers to your products.

The images will appear in a row as shown below.

Image 3

Image 4

Images will change each time you view the page. One way to limit the images displayed is to specify one category such as a specials or on sale category. When a single category is specified only products from that category wil be displayed. This is particularly helpful when having sale items you whish to promote.

If there are less than 4 images available, only the number of images available will be displayed. If you need 4 items to display, make sure you have 4 products with images in the category you specify.
