How are Product Widgets used?

Filtered:  

A filtered widget would be use whenever the Admin wants to call out a Category(s) or Type(s) of Products.  For example, “Upcoming Live” widget would filter on Products with “Live” Types.  Another example would be if you had a specific category “Nursing” and you wanted to show only the Products in the “Nursing” category. 

Recommended:

A recommended widget would be used if you want to create a personalize page of learning content specific it each Users interest.  In this case, the Admin would create a page called “Recommended” and a Recommended Product Widget would be placed on the page.  The Admin would most likely create a menu item that points to the “recommended” page.

Popular:  

A popular widget would be used if you want to draw attention to or show your Users a list of most popular products.  This widget would be used once the organization has generated enough registrants in order for the logic to work.

Specific:  

The specific widget would be used to create a “Featured” or “Weekly Special” section of your content.  This widget requires that you select specific products by title. This widget should be refreshed periodically.
