Homepage Seasonal Product Groups

Homepage Groups — Seasonal Product Rotation for X-Cart

Homepage Groups automatically rotates the products shown on your homepage based on the month of the year. It’s ideal for seasonal businesses and monthly campaigns: you set up product groups once, and your homepage updates itself as the months change.

How it works

1. The module creates a hidden product attribute called “Homepage group”.
2. You assign products to Group 1 – Group 12 (one group per month).
3. Each month, the module automatically displays the correct group of products on your homepage.

No cron jobs, manual switching, or ongoing maintenance required – set it up once, and your homepage stays seasonal all year.
