Usecases

So, what are the uses of the new menu item Product tag view?Here is all what you can achieve with the tag layout of J2Store:

• Assign a product to multiple categories

• Display brand-wise products.

Assigning a product to multiple categories:

With the conventional list layout, it is possible to organize products based on their categories. However, there is one catch. It is not possible to assign a product to multiple categories.

Overcoming this, now we have the tag layout where it is possible for a product to be assigned to multiple categories.

Steps to be followed:

• Create tags that you wish to link with the product.

• Create a product and add the tags to the product.

• Create menus and link the tags with the respective menus.

Scenario

Products like Coffee mugs should be available under two categories- Kitchen appliances and Gifts.

Steps to be done:

• Create two tags: Gifts, Kitchen appliances.

• Create a product named coffee mugs.

• Assign both the tags to the product article.

• Create menu items of the type Product tag view: Kitchen appliances associating the tag kitchen appliancesGifts associating the tag Gifts.

• Now the product coffee mugs will be available in both Kitchen appliances and Gifts.

Likewise, we can assign products to as many categories as we wish.
