Appearance Settings #
These settings let you control the actual booster display and messaging:
Section Title
Customize the section title (e.g., “Buy These Together & Save”).
This helps customers immediately recognize the purpose of the section.
Section Subtitle
Optional supporting text shown below the main title.
Use it to add a short explanation or promotional message (e.g., “Pair these items for the best experience” or “Complete your bundle”).
It adds extra context and encourages engagement.
Highlight Badge
Displays a small badge or tag next to the title or product list.
Ideal for drawing attention to a special deal (e.g., “Hot Deal”, “Best Offer”, “Limited Time”).
This element can improve visibility and urgency.
CTA Button Text
Customize the text displayed on the booster’s call-to-action button (e.g., “Add All to Cart”, “Get This Combo”, or “Claim Deal”).
This text directly influences how customers interact with the booster and can increase engagement when phrased clearly and persuasively.

Troubleshooting #
If your booster isn’t displaying as expected, check the following:

- Is the booster status set to active?
- Have you chosen a correct display location?
- Is the product published and purchasable?
- Are there any caching plugins delaying changes?
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) #
Why isn’t the booster showing on my single product page?
If you’ve configured everything correctly but still don’t see the booster, it might be due to your page builder setup. If you’re using Elementor to design the product page, follow these steps:
- Open the single product template in Elementor
- Locate the SalesMax widget in the Elementor widget panel
- Drag the widget to your desired location and choose the corresponding booster (e.g., Frequently Bought Together)
- Save and publish changes
This ensures full compatibility and dynamic display based on product conditions.
If the issue persists, you can contact our support team (see below).
Can I show different product combinations per product?
Yes. You can override global filters by manually selecting specific products inside the SalesMax booster panel on each product edit screen.
Does the booster work with variable products?
Absolutely. If the linked products include variable products, the booster will display variant selectors where necessary.
Can I use multiple boosters on the same product?
Yes, but keep usability in mind. It’s best to avoid overwhelming the user — use boosters that complement each other and assign them strategic display locations (e.g., one before the Add to Cart button, one in a tab).
