Here is a full list of what you can do with OptimizeForm Product Table, which can you can use these to configure the [product_table] shortcode in many different ways.

Note: where you see the * it indicates that specific option can be set as defaults on the plugin settings page. Other options can only be controlled directly in the product table shortcode. 

Columns

• columns=""* – sets the columns in the table. The available columns are: sku, id, name, description, short-description, date, categories, tags, image, reviews, stock, weight, dimensions, price, add-to-cart, and button
• To change the name of a column you can do this by adding a : (colon) after the column name.

Add to cart

• cart_button* – sets the style of the add to cart buttons

Currently there are 3 options to choose from:

button – this is the defualt option

checkbox – this displays a checkbox on the table where the add to cart button would normally be displayed.

button_checkbox – with this option you get the best of both worlds a checkbox and also a button.

For example:

[product_table columns="name,price,add-to-cart" cart_button="button"]
[product_table columns="name,price,add-to-cart" cart_button="button_checkbox"]
[product_table columns="name,price,add-to-cart" cart_button="checkbox"]

• show_quantity* – shows or hides the quantity selector next to the add to cart button

By default, the quantity selector is set to hidden. You can change this via your options settings or set show_quantity to true or false.

For example: [product_table show_quantity="true"]

• variations* – controls how variable products appear in the table

There are 3 ways in which you can allow your customers to choose their product variations.

Option 1 dropdown lists

You can select this as a default setting in the main OptimizeForm product table settings page or add variations="dropdown" to the product table shortcode. 

Option 2 – List each variation on its own row

You can select this as a default setting in the main OptimizeForm product table settings page or add variations="separate" to the product table shortcode. 

Example: [product_table columns="name,price,add-to-cart" variations="separate"]

Option 3 – Select variations on the single product page

This is the default option and therefore don’t need to do anything else if you have not selected either option 1 or 2 on the main OptimizeForm product table settings page

• ajax_cart* – disables or activates ajax add to cart behaviour

You have the option to enable or disable the ajax add to cart function. If the set the ajax_cart=”false” the will cause the page to refresh each time a user add something to their cart.

For eample: [product_table ajax_cart="false"]

• add_selected_button* – controls the location of the ‘Add Selected to Cart’ button

If you choose to use the checkbox or button_checkbox add to cart button style then an “Add Selected to Cart” button will automatically display above and/or below the product table.

You have the option to select whether the “Add Selected to Cart” appears above/below the table or in both location.

For example:

[product_table cart_button="checkbox" add_selected_button="bottom"]

• button_text – changes the button text if you are using the button column to show a link to the single product page

To change the button text from the default “Show details” text you can do so from the main OptimizeForm product table settings page or add button_text="Your New Button text here" to the product table shortcode. 

How to filter which products appear in the table

You can segment the products on your table in numerous ways which are documented below. Please note this type of control can only be added directly to the shortcode.

Categories / tags / terms / custom fields

You can specify whether to display multiple categories in the table – either separated by commas or by a plus sign (+). Using commas means “products in this category OR that category”. Using a plus means “products in this category AND that category”. You can’t mix and match commas and pluses – you have to use one or the other.

• category="enter category slug or id here" – lists products from a specific category
• tag="enter tag slug or id here" – lists products with a specific tag
• term="enter term here" – lists products with a specific custom taxonomy term
• cf="field name:field value" – lists products with a specific custom field value. For example: [product_table cf="color:blue,color:red"] That would only show products that are either blue or red.

Custom taxonomy columns

To add taxonomies to your table use the format tax:<insert taxonomy slug> in the columns option. This will display a custom taxonomy in a column of your product table.

So, for example, to display for a custom taxonomy with the slug portfolio_type, you would use:
[product_table columns="name,description,tax:portfolio_type"].

Exclude / include

• exclude="enter ID of the product you want to exclude here" – excludes specific products from the table based on ID
• include="enter ID of the product you want to include here" – lists specific products in the table based on ID
• exclude_category="enter ID of the category you want to exclude here" – excludes entire categories of products from the table

Product status

• status=" enter product status here" – lists products with a specific post status for example: [product_table columns=”name,price,add-to-cart” status=”publish,draft”]

Dates

You can specify whether to display products in the table based on the date they were published in the table – either separated by commas or by a plus sign (+). Using commas means “products in this year OR that year”. Using a plus means “products in this year AND that year”. You can’t mix and match commas and pluses – you have to use one or the other.

• year="insert year here" – lists products published in a specific year
• month="insert month here" – lists products published in a specific month in numerical format.
• day="insert day here" – lists products published on a specific day of the month in numerical format.

Basic usage displaying all products (see below for full list of columns):
[product_table columns="name,short-description,tags,price,add-to-cart"]

Display products from a single category (use the category slug or ID):
[product_table columns="sku,name,description,tags,price,add-to-cart" category="ebooks"]
