Ending soon products duration: Add the number of weeks/days/hours/minutes/seconds (it's up to you!) for which the product will appear in the Ending Soon block.

I.e., you added 5 weeks to this setting and 10 to the "Best-sellers sold times" setting above, so if the product will be bought 10 times during 5 weeks (at any period of time, not just after you set this up), it'll appear in the Best Sellers block.
NOTE: Products can only be added to this block when conditions are met. They will remain in this block until you remove the entire product from the LMS system.

I.e., you enable this setting, and set up 2 products:

• product A - has Enable multiple selling setting ticked OFF

• product B - has Enable multiple selling setting ticked ON
  Then user buys both products. When it's done, user will still be able to see product A in Products Catalog, but not buy it. And he/she will still be able to see and buy product B again.

Alternative Catalog URL: Add a URL link to the page where you have places the Product Catalog block, so the user will be automatically redirected after product purchasing. I.e., by default, users are automatically redirected to the Dashboard page (/my). But you added the Product Catalog block on the Home page instead of Dashboard and want your users are directed to that one. Adding a link to the LMS Home page here will help with problem solution.

Alternative Login URL: Add the URL link that you want your guests will be directed to when they click on Add to cart button in the Products Catalog page. This can be used for the case if you want to show some additional page for guests before they log in to purchase it. I.e., you add a URL to purchasing terms in your LMS system, guest clicks on Add to cart button and he is directed to this terms page, where in the bottom may be a note that guest should sign in/sign up before purchasing.

NOTE: This setting requires Enable Guest Access setting to be turned on, and Enable guest checkout to be turned off.

Default Dashboard Page: Add a URL link here so that all users who have an access to the IntelliCart managing will be directed to when they go to IntelliCart from the navigation menu. I.e., you want you and you managers are directed to the All Sales page instead of Dashboard. Adding a link to the All Sales page here will help with problem solution.

Enable Reviews: Enable this box to add an ability to add product and instructor reviews for your users. Users will be able add reviews to products and instructors and comment these reviews.

Enable this box to add product schema to product view page for guest. This helps searching engine to define product price with a “price” type to display a it correctly when product is searched.
NOTE: Enable this box during the process of setting up Guest Checkout. In case you do not do this, you may face with a problem that product price is 100 times bigger than expected when product is looked in a searching engine. This happens because searching engine reads decimal part as a main product price. It may take some time while searching engine update its' results within new price display, but you may update product description to speed up this process - it forces searching engine to read an updated version.

Featured products time duration enabled: This setting works in collaboration with “Enable featured products” setting above and “Featured products time duration“ setting below. Enable this box so that products marked as featured will be automatically unmarked after some period of time.

This may be useful for cases when you use direct product links and place them on a third site.

Here only users who has "IntelliBoard" in their Company profile field will see the product.

• Equal and not case-sensitive. When you enter the Profile Field value for product or discount, you should put the same value as it's entered in User Profile(s), but the case may be ignored.

Here users who has "Intelli", "board", "Board", etc. in their Company profile field will see the product.

Not Filter Empty Profile Fields Data: Enable this box to allow users who don't have any information in the selected above Profile Field see all available products.

Enable Groups Selection: This setting allows your customers to select a course group he/she wants to be enrolled in when they buy a product on the checkout page. This setting is an addition to the previous one (Enable Groups), so you have to enable that, too. I.e., the customer wants to be enrolled into the group A from the Math course when they buy a product and/or session.
