The product viewing is based on a structure of categories, sub categories, attributes and products, that are stored in a separate system folder in the page tree. The pages containing products are using the product module plugin. If you use the filter view (Img. 1), categories and attributes can be used to filter the products. It is also possible to use the product structure (Img. 2) based on the categories, which will add a left hand side category menu instead. The final option is to show the products grouped by category (Img. 3) where the visitor can choose to show products as cards, or in a list.
