Possible to just show latest products on carousel

Hi,

You have to configure the module for the sorting or the feature product option. www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/i...es-form.html#product

Hi,

HikaShop comes preinstalled with a latest products module. You can configure it via the menu Display>Content modules and the Joomla modules manager. In the content modules menu, there will be a "enable carousel" setting which will allow you to configure the carousel on that module.

Similarly, if you already have a module configured as a carousel and that you want it to display latest products, you want to edit that module via the menu Display>Content modules and change the settings to adapt them to what you want exactly. I can't give a precise explanation of what to do as it depends on how you already have the module configured. But on this page, like any page of the backend, you'll find a "help" button on which you can click and which will give an explanation of each field of the page.

Regarding the breadcrumbs, I would recommend to turn on the "force canonical URLs on listings" setting of the HikaShop configuration and make sure that you fill in the URL you want for the product page in the "canonical URL" field of your products. That will fix the breadcrumb automatically and also improve your SEO.

Hi,

Go in the menu Display>Content modules and edit your module.
There, you have the "ordering direction" and "ordering column" settings. If you select descending and product_created respectively in these options, the products will be ordered based on their creation date in descending order on your module.
You also have the "associated category" setting there. You could select a "featured" unpublished category you would create via the Products>Categories menu and then add as a second category to all the products you would like on that module.

You can see many concrete examples of content modules with the modules already setup by default when you install HikaShop. By default you have: a latest products module, a brands module, a categories on 2 levels module, a categories on 1 level module, a best sellers module, a recently viewed module, a random products module and a best rated products module.
So that's already plenty of examples of how to configure the content module.
