Online stores can be overwhelming to maintain. LemonStand Cart requires that you set related products on each of your products. Clients with large numbers of products prefer automation where possible.
If the client does not specify related products, the below partial code will show related products from the database. The script grabs products from parent categories to ensure that the output remains relevant.
Partial Code
The partial is formatted for a theme based on Foundation 3 responsive framework. You may have to tweak the output to work for your LemonStand site.
