Adding recommendation frames by yourself for the first time only applies to customers who use the self-implementation method. In the case of the QONizer method, our team will do it for you. However, in the course of regular cooperation, you can still add widgets yourself.

Creating and editing recommendation frames is possible in the QuarticOn customer’s panel. Placements for frames are developed by us on the basis of our clients’ choices, long-term working experience and methods tested by us. Therefore the system predefines them for you:

However, placements can be modified by the user.
​
The names of the pages and places on the pages indicate the preset position where the recommendation frame will be triggered. For example, if your goal is to add a frame to the product card under a short description of the product, but before any additional product information, we recommend that you use the placement PRODUCT PAGE -> Middle.

To add a new recommendation frame, go to the Recommendations tab and select the Add widget button. You will be redirected to the editor, which consists of five stages:

In the Select a placement for the recommendation widget tab, select a place in the defined structure in which the frame should appear.

In this tab you can match a frame with a defined group of users (user segments). If you created some of them before, you can pick them from the list.

If not, add a new user segment (Add an audience).

After choosing your audience, go to advanced settings where you can set the capping, priority or scheduling option.

In the next tab Select a product recommendation strategy there are 12 predefined recommendation strategies available. When you move the cursor over the strategy, a short description will appear. Select one of them and decide which products should be displayed to the user.

In this tab you can also go to advanced strategy settings.

Depending on the selected recommendation strategy, the advanced settings option allows you to:

1. sort products

2. filter products by their price

3. filter products by their category
​

4. exclude popular products
​

The next step is editing the appearance of recommendation frames in theDrag&drop creator. In this article you will find detailed instructions on how to do this.

Save all your settings by going to the Summary tab.

After that, the system will come back to the report view.

In order to download a frame and display it on a website in a defined form, it is necessary to:

1. go to the tab Recommendations Widgets

2. scroll to the field where the previously defined widget is placed
​

3. click on the Get snippet button
​

4. by default, the newly created widget appears as disabled in the panel. To appear on the page, copy the contents of the field and add where the recommendations should be displayed.

An example of implementing a recommendation frame in the structure of a website:

A well-added frame in the page code will look like this:

The recommendation frame code can be modified by adding a dynamic filter, thanks to which only products from a given category will appear on the widget.
