How to create a most popular article panel in business catalyst


I've been developing a website for my company g7g20.com and we are interested in creating a most popular articles or top 10 articles panel and was wondering if there was a way of accessing the analytics to display this?

We already have a latest and related and just want to mix it up a bit. Any thoughts would be most welcome.


Solution

  • The following code will give you all products which sold more than 5 units during the last 100 days.

    {% assign date = globals.site.dateNow | date_add: -100, "day" -%}
    {module_data resource="products" version="v3" fields="id" limit="100" where="\{'orders.units':\{'$gt':'5'\},'orders.createDate':\{'$gt':'{{date}}'\}\}" collection="units"}
    <pre>{{units|json}}</pre>
    

    You can then use the product IDs like so and render the products

    {% for item in  units.items -%}
        {module_data resource="catalogproducts" version="v3" limit="1" fields="productId,catalogueId" where="\{'product.id':'{{item.id}}'\}" order="catalogueId" collection="products"}
        {% for item in  products.items -%}
            {% assign CATID = {{item.catalogueId}} -%}
            {% assign PROID = {{item.productId}} -%}
            {module_product,{{CATID}},{{PROID}}}
        {% endfor -%}
    {% endfor -%}
