  (whether in multiple orders, or one BIG order; the number of units sold is considered)
• Items that are not marked as hidden

Can I mark products as top sellers manually?

Beginning in version 12.1.1, merchants will have the ability to manually mark products as top sellers. To do so:

1. Go to Products > Product List
2. Find the product that you'd like to mark as a Top Seller, and click on its name
   Or look to the far right of the item and click on its "Action >Edit" button
3. Click on the product's "Advanced" tab
4. Look for the "Include as a Top Seller" dropdown
5. Change it to Yes
6. Click on Save in the top right

For a fully detailed explanation on each of the options found in this "Include as a Top Seller" setting, please see below. Each description assumes you have the Display Top Seller Tag setting on the module enabled:

• Default
  The product will display (or not display) on the list as they do currently. Additionally, if the product is a “Top Seller” - it will be tagged on the pages that it is displayed.
• Yes
  This item will be tagged as a “Top Seller” wherever it is displayed and if this item is not already a Top Seller, it will be added to the Top, moving other items down the list. If its on the list already, it will remain.
• No
  This item will not be tagged as a “Top Seller” wherever it's displayed and if this item is on the list, it will be removed.
