Adding
Products / Editing Products |
The FORTUNE3 E-Commerce
& Shopping Cart Wizard software features two
ways of adding Products: Either add a product
by entering the product information manually or
by using the "Import
Products from Spreadsheet" feature.
To enter a product
manually, select the "Product Category"
target (on the category that you want to add
the product to), then right-click on it and select
"Add Product" or "Add Product
with Options" (If your product has options
such as sizes, colors, etc., then choose "Add
Product with Options", otherwise if your
product is a simple product without any options,
choose "Add Product"). Fill
in the corresponding entry-form. You may also
right-click on the "Product
List" panel to fill in the product
entry-form, but it will not appear in the tree
or on the site until it is copied and pasted or
dragged and dropped into a "Product Category"
on the Tree.
The
Product List:
The FORTUNE3 Shopping
Cart & E-Commerce Wizard software features
a linear product list. All of the products
in Product Tree appear in the "Product
List", but on this "linear"
list, the products and categories are not related
to each other. Furthermore, products that may
have once existed on the Tree but have
been deleted will remain in the "Product
List" unless they are removed
from the list manually (by right-clicking on it
and clicking on "Delete").
This is in case you delete a product by accident,
or delete a product and want to easily bring it
back at a later time. Additionally, products that
are imported from a spreadsheet but weren't imported
into a category on the Tree will be listed
on the "Product List" ONLY.
You may easily drag and drop or copy and paste
these products from the "Product List"
into any category in the Tree in order
to bring them back into your web store. You can
display the list by clicking on "Show
Product List" from the top bar.
Use the "Product List"
to quickly find a product, to get access to a
product's data entry form, and to...
| • |
Sort products
either by SKU, Name, or Color.
The color determines
whether the product is currently in the
Tree (black), has been deleted
from the Tree (red), or is newly
imported from a spreadsheet but was not
imported into a category (blue). Highlight
items in the list by using the "Up"
and "Down" arrow keys or
by "pointing and clicking" with
the mouse. |
| • |
Select (highlight)
any item and press the "Enter"
key or right-click with your mouse and then
click "Properties". A corresponding entry-form
becomes available for data field modifications.
|
| • |
Group several products
in one selection. Use the "Shift"
key for sequential groups and "Ctrl"
key for non-sequential groups. |
| • |
Drag and drop any
selection from the Product List
onto its appropriate category on the Product
Tree. Preset the selection either as
a "Product" or as a "Product
with Options" by selecting the
appropriate type from the choice below the
list. |
| • |
Copy and Paste selected
products from the Product List
into its appropriate category on the Tree.
Right-click on the selection and choose
"Copy". Select a "Product
Category" target on the Tree, right-click
on it and select "Paste". |
| • |
Differentiate the
products by action type: Products
that are "current and available"
in the Product Tree are listed with
"black-type".
Newly imported products that were not imported
into a category are listed with "blue-type"
(until being placed onto a category in the
Product Tree). Products
deleted from the Product Tree are
listed with "red-type". |
NOTE: Products deleted from the "Product
List" window will also be deleted from
the Product Tree and from the E-Commerce
website, online store and shopping cart. If a
product is ONLY on the product list, it will not
show up on the site.
Thumbnail
Size (px):
A thumbnail will
automatically be created for every product and
category image, and will be used on category web
pages that display multiple products and multiple
categories in one page.
You can choose the
size of the thumbnails that get displayed to represent
your products and categories on all of the category
pages that display the thumbnails. Your choices
are "75X75", "100X100" and
"150X150". These are measured in pixels.
Images are automatically reduced proportionally
so that image quality is not compromised. When
adding images to your products and categories,
add the full-size version of the images, as the
FORTUNE3 software will automatically produce a
high-quality thumbnail for each image you add.
Try to use images of the same width X height proportions
for each specific product, as keeping the same
proportions for each image will ensure that the
category pages' layout will be displayed uniformly.
