| CMS Market Product Widget |
|
Now reviewers, authors, and any other site that loves your new product has a very easy way to include a writeup and let others know about it. Beyond that, other sites showing CMS Market's new or updated products, or a speciality site showing products from a specific category will automatically show your new product. Even better, as the extension gets updated (through increased hit count, new reviews, or the author updates the description, price, or attributes), websites using these widgets will be updated automatically!
There are 2 product widgets available: a plugin for easily adding a product to an article and a module for showing multiple items of your choosing easily.
Product Module:
An extremely flexible module which you can include on your Joomla website. Easy to use and setup, but configurable to show whichever products you want, how you want to show them. Select your products:
Then, order them however suits you best:
Each item returned will be formatted like the example at the bottom of this page, but it's completely customizable either through parameters or your own elbow grease by customizing the CSS or tmpl file.
Plugin Widget: By simply adding a special tag anywhere within an article, the product information will automatically be grabbed from the CMS Market directory and inserted at the bottom of your article contents. All you need to do is insert the code {cmsmarketproduct 55}, anywhere within your article. An example of the results can be seen at the bottom of this article created using the plugin itself.
Affiliate Program Integration: Looking to earn a little extra money? If your signed up with our (free) CMS Market Affiliate Program, you can simply enter your Affiliate ID into the widget and all links to CMS Market will automatically specify you as the referrer. Any purchases from users you send our way can earn you a 20% commission!
Getting Started: Both modules use the parameters in the image above to let you select what's shown. To get started, get the module and plugin widgets. To find out a Product ID or Category ID, simply look at the bottom of any lower-level category page (with product listings) or a product page itself. It couldn't be easier to start promoting your favorite CMS Market products! How Does It Work? All information is requested from the CMS Market extension directory over XML-RPC calls. There are no iFrames used, and all content is embedded on your site as though it's your own content. Go ahead, look at the HTML. This helps your site by keeping your content relevant and up-to-date constantly, and looks great for search engines.
