Hi,
I have a question regarding Bestsellers side box and hope someone can help.
I understand that:
a. When in home page, the Bestsellers side box displays the best selling products across all categories.
b. When in a particular category, the Bestsellers side box displays the best selling products for that particular category. If there is no sale of any products in that particular category, the Bestsellers side box will not be displayed.
Suppose I have a site that has just gone into production and there has been no sale yet in many of the product categories. Therefore, the Bestsellers side box is not displayed. Is there a way to manually change the number of items sold for a particular product in a particular category so that the Bestsellers side box will appear featuring the product? In a way this approach can be used as a form of advertisement for the product.
I guess one way is to manually modify the database. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to do this? If this route is not feasible, what are the other options?
DL
