Cross-sell products

I just bought this add on thinking it was for adding Featured products (to cross-sell) at the bottom of the product page (like Similar Products).  Unfortunately, I have now discovered it is for putting featured products on the home page.  Is there any way to list cross-sell items to the product page?

Hi,  yes this was what I was looking for.  I just purchased it and have discovered it is not an easy extension for me to install.  Can you please clarify these two points:


  (You need a LESS compilator to generate new CSS files for the browser. See the add-on Developer Kit.)

**Find**

    #box-campaign-products, #box-latest-products, #box-popular-products, #box-similar-products, #box-also-purchased-products {

**Replace with**

    #box-campaign-products, #box-latest-products, #box-popular-products, #box-similar-products, #box-also-purchased-products, #box-related-products {```
1. To clarify, am I using a text editor on my local computer to modify the file and then re-upload it to my server?  Or am I using a text editor in ssh like nano?  I am a bit confused as step 3 was to upload the files, and there is no further step to re-upload the modified file.

```Developer Kit
Note: This package is a performance drainer and is not intended to be used in a production environment. Use in a development environment where the minified versions are instead deployed (copied) to production.```
2. I don't have a development environment.  Is it possible to install the developer kit temporarily and then uninstall it?  Of if I have to create a new development account on my same server such as with a subdomain, will leaving the extra subdomain development environment be a performance drainer on my server if usually, no one is accessing the development subdomain site?

Thanks

Sorry for the confusion, you should edit the file on the server with whatever tools or method that works for you. It doesn't matter if you use FileZilla to edit it directly on the site, ssh or download a local copy that you upload back up again. They all produce the same result.

Browsers don't understand LESS so you need to compile new CSS versions. More of that in the wiki.

Yes you can install the Developer Tools and remove them once you are done no problem. In coming LiteCart 2.2.0 you will have the option to discard the LESS files and only roll with uncompressed CSS (like in the old days). I have made this optional as more and more newbies are struggling with the benefits playing with LESS.

I recommend anyone to have a dev platform which is an experimental sandbox where you can play around and test before taking new features to production. See the add-on Deploy Changes for a great tool to deploy changes from a development to a production.

Hi,
I purchased this extension some time back but as it was difficult to install with the LESS and the fact you mentioned LESS may not be necessary for 2.2.0, I didn't end up installing it.

Now, that I am upgrading to 2.2.0 and chose not to use LESS, I would like to install this extension.

Do you plan to update it (if necessary) or update the instructions now that LESS is not needed?  Thanks

Hi, Is there an update on this?  If not choosing LESS in the installation of Litecart, can we ignore the below instructions now?

I have removed the CSS/LESS instruction since this doesn't seem to be necessary in 2.0+.
