Advanced Module - Version 4.3005 updated 25. Nov. 2024

Content Engine


Adds rulebased personalised product recommendations to any MailBeez Email.

When editing an email template just add the content element Live Content and configure the settings to add product recommendations.

You can select from the following choice of content sources which define how recommendations are retrieved. Depending on the selected content source you will find a number of configuration options.

For order related recommendations (e.g. "also purchased") please configure the relevant order status and the timeframe of the orders to use for retrieving recommendations. This allows you to configure how fast the seasonal buying behaviour influences the recommendations.

Unique products only

You can add multiple content elements of type Live Content - just active the option "Exclude already shown products" to make sure only unique products are shown, e.g. in case a product is both new and a specials products and you have added both Live Content of type "New Products" and "Specials Products"

FSK18- and Group-Check

The store systems Modified-Shop and Gambio allow to tag products with "FSK18" and "group" permissions. By default the content engine will respect these settings to make sure only appropriate products are recommended. If you like you can deactivate this setting. On other store systems this configuration option is hidden.
