Sections like «New arrivals», «Sale» or «In stock» are usually maintained by hand: add the arrivals, remove what sold out. A dynamic category does it for you — you describe the condition and the contents keep themselves current.

What it does

• Categories filled with products that match the criteria you set.
• Contents refreshed automatically on schedule (CRON) or manually.
• A description and extra content of their own on such a category page.
• A filter on the category page, exactly like in a regular catalogue section.
• Grouping of products by their category or brand.
• A block with the list of groups for navigation inside the section.
• A dynamic category can be attached to a menu item.

When it helps

Storefronts like «New arrivals», «Bestsellers», «Discounts», «In stock», plus seasonal and themed selections. The add-on replaces the discontinued New Arrivals and Sale categories and covers a much wider set of conditions.

Support and updates

Creating categories and attaching them to the menu is covered in the documentation. Six months of free updates, questions through HelpDesk.

FAQ

Are the products duplicated in the catalogue?

No. A dynamic category shows the same products — it is another way to group them, not a copy.

How often do the contents refresh?

On the schedule you set with a cron command, or when you press the button in the administration panel.
