Review Frontpage Recommendations

Frontpage Recommendations

Use this checklist to ensure your frontpage recommendation boxes render and behave as expected before going live.

Introduction

Before testing your Hello Retail setup, log in to your account at: https://my.helloretail.com/company/signin.html

After logging in, open your website to start the review.

Note

When product recommendation boxes are enabled, they are not live for all visitors until you click Make Live. This allows you to review changes without exposing them to customers.

Some browsers block cross-site tracking by default. If the Hello Retail widget panel does not appear, adjust your browser's cross-site tracking settings.

Step 1

Enable Live Test for your recommendation boxes.

  1. Navigate to the front page of your website.
  2. Click the Hello Retail icon on the bottom-left to open the Hello Retail panel.
  3. Navigate to Product Boxes and toggle Show on for the recommendation boxes you want to display.
  4. Close the widget panel by clicking the Hello Retail icon again.
  5. Refresh the page in your browser (On Mac: CMD+R / On Windows: CTRL+R).
