This module provides additional Features for your Merchant 5.x store.   With the placement of the module's item tokens you can display,  anywhere in your store, products randomly selected from your store,  products randomly selected from particular categories, your store's best  sellers, and more!    The module accomplishes this by tying particular  tokens to templates configured from within the module's admin.   You can  specify the exact layout of the template and display it anywhere in  your store with a single item token.  Particular details about the items  are configured with separate tokens in the templates (for example, you  can separately arrange where to display a product's thumbnail and name).
The module comes with the follow templates but you can add as many as you want:
- Random Products
 
- Random Products from Category
 
- Best Sellers
 
- Images from List
 
- Random Images from List
 
- Products from List
 
- Random Products from List
 
The Random Products tokens display products randomly selected  from your store.  Specific tokens display the information about the  product and include many "extras" such as the ability to display the  discount the customer is receiving (if any) from the list price.   Products can be kept from being selected by adding the text vc_noshow  (usually as a comment, <!--vc_noshow-->) to the product's  description.
The Random Products from Category tokens display products  randomly selected from particular categories.  This permits you to  feature the products from a particular category on your storefront or  set up a category just to hold featured products and display products  randomly selected from that category (the category does not need to be  active in the store)
The Best Sellers tokens display a list of your best selling  products (determined by the quantity sold).  As with the Random Products  tokens, individual products can be excluded from the displayed list.   The list of best selling products is determined dynamically and will  change as your sales change.
The Images from List tokens displays images from a list of  images configured in the module's interface.  Alt text can be maintained  for each image.  These tokens provide for the ability to change the  images in your store without having to change your store templates.  To  change the image being displayed simply upload a new image into the  particular position being displayed from the list.
The Random Images from List tokens will display an image  randomly selected from a list of images maintained in the module's  admin.  This provides for the ability to rotate images in your store to  provide for a variety of "looks" to show the customer and to keep things  fresh.
The Products from List tokens provide for the ability to  feature particular products in your store  and to change the particular  products being displayed by simply changing the products in the list  rather than having to manually change the tokens on the pages
The Random Products from List tokens also provide for the  ability to feature particular products but will randomly select which  products to feature from a list configured in the module's admin.  This  permits you to rotate the featured products each time the customer  visits the store and will present them with a "fresh" featured product  each time.
