- Are there any requirements for products I’d like to display?
-
The product must have the Visibility setting (in Admin->Products->Catalog->edit product) set so that “Catalog” is included in the value (e.g. “Catalog” or “Catalog,Search”). Otherwise the link back to the product won’t work.
- I use a currency other than dollars – how do I change the price display?
-
Modify
product_display_for_magento.php
and change the functionmage_product_display_price
.
