If you're using the RicheyWeb Content - Amazon Product Advertising API plugin, you'll know that it REQUIRES one key piece of information to be present in EVERY tag. That information defines which product you want to display and can be either the ASIN (Amazon Standard Identification Number) or the ISBN (mainly used for books/print publications).

It is 100% not possible for me to create templates that will work with everyone's website. On top of that, Amazon has a great variety of products that don't all come with the same level of detail. Heck, some products have an image and a title - and that's it! We can accommodate for both of these situations using output overrides. It sounds complicated, but for me it was one line of code to give you limitless customization opportunities for my Content - Amazon Product Advertising API plugin. So let's start with a brief tutorial on what an output override actually is.

If output overrides aren't powerful enough to do what you want with Content - Amazon Product Advertising API - there is another option: custom templates. This isn't really much different than the output overrides. However, there is one key difference.
You aren't limited to the file names of the existing templates. You can name your template filename anything you like.
