By setting useproductbody format to 2 like this useproductbodyformat=2 the
products are displayed with the product options, price and buy button below
the product image. When useproductbodyformat is set to 1 the product
options, price and buy button are displayed to the right of the product image.
The reason we added this second layout is that it lends itself well to having
more than one column of products. So, when using useproductbodyformat=2
the products will be displayed in the number of columns specified by
productcolumns, such as
productcolumns=2
You can have as many as you like in theory, but just make sure they fit on
your page.
Please note that with the useproductbodyformat set to 1 the productcolumns
setting will be ignored.
To allow you to specify the search results independently of the general
product display, you can set usesearchbodyformat to 1 or 2 in the same way.
There is also a second product detail format available now. Setting
usedetailbodyformat=2 will display the product detail page with the image to
the left of the product description, price, quantity and buy button.
If you need the category text and description to the right of the image choose
usecategoryformat=2
allproductsimage="" allows you to specify an image for "All Products" and the
path can be inserted here.

wish to display by setting and customizing . . .
