Quick view
How to set up the quick product view window opened from the catalog in the Trust template for OpenCart 3: what to show customers — photo, description, specifications, quantity, wishlist and compare.
In the catalog the customer doesn’t go to the product page: they click the “Quick view” button on a product card, and a window with the photo, price, description and a buy button opens over the catalog. Close the window — and they are back among the other products.

Open Octemplates → Modules → Quick product view.
Settings

Here you choose what exactly the customer sees in the window.
General
- Module status — when off, the quick view button in the catalog doesn’t open the window.
Window content
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Enable product image | The product photo in the window. Set the width and height in pixels; empty — the size comes from the template settings. |
| Enable description | A short product description in the window, together with the “Characteristics” tab. |
| Number of characters in description | The description is trimmed to this many characters. Empty — the full description is shown. |
| Enable “Characteristics” | A tab with the product attributes. |
Buttons and fields
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Enable “Quantity” field | A quantity selector next to the “Buy” button. |
| Display the “Add to wishlist” button | A button that adds the product to the wishlist. |
| Display the “Add to compare” button | A button that adds the product to comparison. |
Tip. For quick view a photo, price and a short description are enough. Trim a long description to 300–500 characters: a customer who needs details will go to the product page.
Quick view and quick order
These are different features. Quick view is a window with product information. You can also buy from it, and the “Buy in 1 click” field in this window is enabled in the “Quick order” module, in the “Where to show the field” section.
