Configuring the Plugin

Once you have installed Printable Price List, you will see four new items in the admin's Configuration menu:

1. Printable Price-List
2. Price-list Profile 1
3. Price-list Profile 2
4. Price-list Profile 3

Printable Price-List Settings

These settings apply to PPL's display of the pricelist page and control its addition of a link to that page in a site's "Information" sidebox:

• Default Profile. Choose the default profile to use. This identifies the PPL profile initially displayed on the pricelist page.
• Show Profile Links? Choose "true" to display links to the currently-enabled profiles on the pricelist page.
• Show Information Sidebox Link? Choose whether ("true", the default) or not a 'Price List' link should be shown in the Information sidebox.
• Information Sidebox Link Position. If the 'Price List' link is to be shown in the Information sidebox, identify the numeric position at which that link is inserted. Enter 1 for the first position in the list, 2 for the second and so on. To position as the last entry, enter a number larger than the number of items currently in the sidebox's list.
• Information Sidebox Link New Page? If the 'Price List' link is to be shown in the Information sidebox, indicate whether ("true", the default) or not a click of the link should open in a new page.
• Include currency symbol in pricelist header? Choose whether ("true", the default) or not the currently-selected currency's symbol should be included in the pricelist print-out.
