Multiple Rows


The number of actually displayed products depends on dimensions of certain devices. You can only be sure that the whole number of products settled in the Max Products to Display option is visible for customers in two cases. First, if you select the Slider block layout option and the second is the new option - Products aligned in multiple rows.

So, if the maximum number of settled products is greater than the available space, Who Bought This Also Bought will move them to another line with this option.
