Let users customize related listings

Hi,

without code snippets, it is currently not possible to define search radius or category or anything from the Related listings block. The idea is (if it does not require a lot of rework) to:

  • Let users choose the category of the related listings block
  • If possible, let users as well choose the radius (or location) of the related listings

This would offer a lot of flexibility, since I could add a few related listings blocks to the same listing, one with related listings from “category A”, the other from “category B”, etc…

You can see this in marketplaces like Amazon, where you look for a mattress, and then they recommend you sheets or pillows, and not more mattresses.

Hope this helps,
thanks

Hi,

Please clarify: by users, do you mean site owners or vendors? If site owners, we are planning such a feature. In this version, as a workaround, you can specify the radius in HivePress > Settings > Geolocation, thereby controlling how many kilometers from a particular location to search for related listings.

Hi,

yes, sorry. I meant site owners.

If you were planning to add those options then all good!

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for your suggestion, we’ll consider adding this feature.
