Five Widget Types
In the Retail Xen CMS, there are five different types of Widgets available: Banner, Product, Category, Text, and Image Widgets. Widgets will add features and functionality to the Shop Owner’s Website. For example, a Banner Widget can introduce the Brand Logo of the Shop, an Image Widget can be used to announce promotional offers or Shop advertisement, a Text Widget can display an introduction about the Shop, a Product Widget can list all the selected Products for sale, and a Category Widget can list all types of pre-defined Product Categories from the system. Each Widget has its own function to promote Products or advertise the Shop, so setup Widgets accordingly on Pages.
