Settings & Controls

Settings overview

Shape a Cart recommendation experience that feels right for your catalogue, customers, and checkout flow-without turning a focused WooCommerce feature into a complex project.

Five ways to shape smarter Cart discovery

The GoScript Smart Cart Recommendations WordPress plugin groups its settings into clear merchant-facing areas. Together, they let you decide where suggestions appear, what they show, how they are chosen, which products stay out, and how performance data is tracked locally.

Cart placement and contentEnable the section, choose its position and title, set a minimum subtotal, control the product count, and choose which card details appear.
Basic stylerSet desktop columns, heading size, card appearance, text colours, borders, radius, and grid gap.
Order history and logicChoose the history window, current order statuses, shared-order threshold, matching rule, and fallback behaviour.
Global exclusionsKeep individual products, categories, and tags out of smart and fallback suggestions.
Tracking, attribution, and cacheControl interaction tracking, click cooldown, attribution timing, and recommendation-cache duration.

Start with the settings that shape the shopper experience

For a first pass, focus on Cart placement, section title, product count, visible card details, and a sensible fallback choice. These controls make the recommendation section feel intentional in the Cart before you move into finer merchandising and reporting decisions.

Refine the logic as you learn from your catalogue

Once the Cart experience is in place, use order-history settings, exclusions, manual product recommendations, and product-level suppression to make your strategy more specific. The focused guides in this section explain each control in detail, so this overview can stay useful as your quick map of the available options.

For reporting, enable interaction tracking when you are ready to build local insight into recommendation clicks, attributed orders, conversion rate, and revenue.

Keep an eye on the data foundation

The Settings page also shows WooCommerce Analytics status and the availability of its required lookup tables. That gives you a quick confirmation that history-based logic and its preview have the product and order data they need to work confidently.

Next steps

Choose the focused guide that matches the part of the Cart experience you want to refine first.
