There is a box in the Customization >>Layout Links and Tracking at the bottom of the page to place your Google Analytics Account Code.

Do not paste the entire script, just the code.

You will need to remove the UA code listed as default before entering your specific one.


How do i create Meta Tags?

You can also place your google-site-verification code here as well.

How do i upload my own banner?

Log into your Storeextender Admin panel.  Go to Customization>>Site Settings.  At the top you will see a place to Upload your Banner.


FIRST - delete the default banner. Then an upload button will appear so you can upload your own banner.  Click SAVE.

Q: Can I "hide" categories I don't wish to sell on my site?

A: Yes, in the Admin panel,  you now have the ability to "turn off" any categories you wish.

Q: Do the reports I get list customer names and addresses to target them for future business or specials?

A: The customer export report contains names and email addresses of those customers that have opted-in to receive emails. You should only contact those that have opted-in to be in compliance with anti-spam regulations.

Q: Who processes the credit cards?

A: We process the credit cards for you. You do not need a merchant account or other card processing company.

Q: How can I change/control the retail price I charge for items?

A: This page allows you to adjust pricing for products you sell on your site by defining multipliers for categories and/or manufacturers. The default (or global) multiplier for all products is 2.2 times (or 220%) the wholesale cost.

For example, if you would like to increase the price of the products in the 'Condoms' category, you can add a multiplier of between 2.0 and 5.0. The price your customers see when they view products in this category will be the wholesale cost multiplied by whatever number you specified.

Remember, price multipliers are applied in a specific order, from the broadest to most specific (Global > Category > Manufacturer).

If you set your global multiplier to 2.0 and create a Condoms category multiplier of 2.5 and a manufacturer multiplier for Contempo for 2.2, the condoms multiplier will override the global, and the manufacturer multiplier will override the category.
