Adding Colors and Sizes to Products
February 7th, 20081. Go to Products->Add Colors & Sizes. Add all of the color & size choices.
2. Go to Products->Product Add/Search/Edit and edit the product you want to add the dropdowns to. In Product Edit, there is a Colors/Sizes button where you select the color and/or size choices for that product. After selecting each choice, click on "Add Selection". The choices will show up in dropdown menus in your store, where the shopper can select the desired choice before adding the item to their cart.
Frequent Shopper Points - how does this work?
February 7th, 2008Frequent Shopper points - this "runs" automatically. As soon as your customers start shopping, they start accumulating 1 point for every $1 in product they purchase in your store.
The only setup you need to do is decide the dollar value of the points at redemption. In your Admin tool, under Customer->FSD Points Administrator, the default value of the points is: 25 points = $1. So, for every $100 they spend, they would get $4 off on a future purchase. They can redeem the points as soon as their 2nd order (since they will only earn them on their first order). During checkout, a customer has the opportunity to redeem only up to the total number of points they have already earned. There is a dropdown box with the # points available to them, so they will not be able to enter any # points, instead they must select from the dropdown how many points they would like to redeem.
You may also want to reward customers from time to time by adding points to their point balance. Under Customer->FSD Points Administrator, you can edit any customer's point balance at any time. You can also edit the FSD point balance in Customer->Add/Search/Edit.
How do I add items to the Layout Gallery?
February 7th, 20081. First you must create your gallery by going to Layout Gallery->Galleries. Create galleries for themes (like baby, christmas, birthdays) or by designer.
2. With your galleries created, you can now add Gallery Items. Go to Layout Gallery->Gallery Items.
3. Enter the following information.
Name - the title of the gallery item
Gallery - select which gallery this layout or idea page will go into from the dropdown box.
Description - this is a description of how the layout was created, and instructions on any special techniques that were used.
Author - the person who created the layout. This is often the Design Team member.
Small Image - the .jpg or .gif filename of the scanned image. Can be no larger than 72k in filesize. Recommend 35k for this smaller file.
Large Image - the .jpg or .gif filename of the scanned image. This is the larger image that is displayed when you click on the smaller thumbnail image. This image should be 72k in file size or less.
Click on "Save New Gallery Item" to save this image.
4. Once your gallery item has been saved, you will see an "Add Products" button. Clicking on this button will take you to a page where you can select products from your store, using several different search filters. The easiest is to locate your products by clicking on the Category/Subcategory dropdown, selecting a value then clicking on "Search". In the product list, you will see an "Add to Gallery Item" button you need to click for each product used in this layout. You continue this process until all of the products you want to list with your layout are selected.
Note: gallery links are automatically placed next to each product in the store catalog. A customer can "stumble" upon a gallery item just by browsing through your products, or they can go right into the Layout Gallery from the top menu.
