Hidden Recommendation Widgets
The Hidden Recommendation Widgets list lets you completely disable the Frequently Bought Together widget on specific product pages. When a product is on this list, the FBT block will not appear at all when a customer views that product — regardless of what recommendations are configured.
Excluded Products vs. Hidden Widgets
These two features are often confused. Here is the clear distinction:
Feature | Excluded Products | Hidden Widgets |
|---|---|---|
Stops the product from appearing as a recommendation on other pages | ✓ | ✗ |
Hides the FBT widget on that product's own page | ✗ | ✓ |
Use Excluded Products when you don't want a product to be recommended to anyone. Use Hidden Widgets when you don't want to show any recommendations on a specific product page.
Common Use Cases
Simple or low-margin products where upselling isn't relevant (e.g. accessories priced under $5)
Products that are very specific and don't pair well with anything in your catalogue
Pages where you don't want to distract shoppers from the main purchase
Products where a different upsell or cross-sell app is already used
Accessing Hidden Widgets
Go to Bundle setup in the app sidebar
Click Configure next to Hidden Recommendation Widgets
Adding Products to the Hidden List
On the Hidden Widgets page, click Disable widgets
Search for the product by name
Select the products you want to hide the widget on
Click Add to confirm
You can add up to 100 products to the hidden widgets list.
Removing Products from the Hidden List
To re-enable the FBT widget on a product's page, click the Delete icon on that product's row. The widget will begin appearing on that product page immediately.
Adding a product to the hidden list does not affect its ability to appear as a recommendation on other product pages. If you also want to prevent it from being recommended elsewhere, add it to Excluded Products separately.
