Matrix recommendation
Choose Recommendation Method
In the standard case, the algorithm matrixRecommendation should be selected in the Choose Recommendation Method area.
Alternatively, you can also use a parts list configure. In this case the itemListRecommendation is selected.
Number of Recommendations shown
In the Number of Recommendations shown area the maximum number of products displayed on the results page can be specified. We suggest the upper limit of three products.
Special fields - matrixRecommendation
exclude answers
Excluding answers in the results determination
In the area Special fields with the selection of the option exclude_answers answer options can be excluded from the determination of the result. This means that these can still be clicked by the user and those clicks are counted and visible in the Insights area as well, but the answer is not included in the calculation of the product recommendation.

Show user inputs
Showing inputs on the results page
In the Special Fields area, under show_user_inputs the inputs of the users can be selected, which should be displayed at the end on the results page.
Displaying the entries on the result page can be used, among other things, to show the user which answers he has selected or to make it clear that a product meets the selected requirements. In the following example, the answers provided by the user to the questions "cutting tool" and "cutting wheel size" are displayed on the results page.
First mark under show_user_inputs Answers to appear on the results page (GIF left). After that switch to Result Page tab > Product Sections and add below AddSections the element User input added (picture on the right).
After saving, the answers stored by the user are displayed on the result page as follows:
A notice: This function is only recommended if your target group basically only an Recommend the result, since the entries displayed are repeated for each result.
