To control the display in the cart section, to show or hide the images, enabling zoom effects etc., some settings have to made in advance to achieve the desired results. The content plugin settings would also take effect when you have displayed your products using short code on the Joomla layout. This section explains about how the settings can be made.

  • From the joomla main menu, go to Extensions -> Plugin Manager

  • From the resulting window, select Content from the Select Type filter on the left pane and click on Content - J2Store from the list, as illustrated in the image below
