This feature displays additional modules that are available. You have the option of enabling / disabling them and in some cases you can specify where the module is displayed in your site design.
Each listed module can be edited. The Edit section for each module will look the same, showing the following parameters:
– Limit: There is a limit which is written in digits.
– Position: Right, Left or Home
– Status: Enabled or Disabled
– Sort Order: The lower the number inserted, the higher it will be in the options list (0 is the highest Sort Order).
The most common modules that are used are:
(Please be aware that editing these modules may affect your sites front end interface):
– Bestsellers – this displays a box with the top selling products;
– Cart – this module handles the shopping cart.
– Category – this displays the categories;

Google Talk and Google Analytics are new modules that can be initially added to the shopping cart. Google Analytics is a statistics tool that displays how many visitors the website has (on different timeframes), where they come from, how they’ve reached your website and other information.
Google Talk is a messenger communication tool that lets the visitors o your site contact you. Both Google Talk and Google Analytics require a Google account for the admin. Keep in mind that you can also add new modules by installing them onto your database (FTP like).
