MODULE "AUTOMATIC PRODUCT FILTERS" FOR CS-CART MULTI-VENDOR
The module automatically creates filters to search for products for new characteristics that sellers create manually or by importing goods.
Description
Filters for searching for products in the showcase are of great importance for the marketplace. They allow the buyer to quickly filter the goods by the characteristics that are important to him, which means that he can find exactly what he needs. This means that a filter should be created for each new characteristic, and this should be done as quickly as possible after the sellers add new characteristics.
At the start of the marketplace, the administrator creates an initial cloud of characteristics and filters for them. However, later sellers begin to massively upload products, create new characteristics for them, and you also need to create a filter for each characteristic. And the more actively the marketplace develops, the more products and characteristics are created daily.
In such conditions, it is almost impossible to keep the filters up to date. Yes, it takes no more than a minute to create one filter, but if you need to process 10 thousand characteristics, then this is almost a month of work by one person. But you also need to remember which characteristics filters have already been created for, which ones have not.
It is to solve this important task that we have created the module "Automatic filters".
Functionality
The module allows you to automatically create filters for new characteristics. You can configure filter generation in the most convenient way:
- Generating filters for the entire marketplace;
- Generating filters for specified categories;
- Generating filters for the entire marketplace with the exception of the specified categories;
- Mass generation of filters for specified categories;
- Automatic generation of filters in the background as new characteristics appear.
The marketplace administrator can only occasionally go to the administrative panel, check the relevance of the characteristics and, if necessary, disable unnecessary filters. This is much easier than manually creating filters for all new characteristics.
As a result, you get always up-to-date filters that allow the buyer to quickly find the right product. As a result, the conversion rate, the number of sales and profit are growing, both for the seller and for you.
