  WHERE condition: Sets the value of the WHERE clause in the SELECT statement used to load products.  
  Selected columns: Lists the database columns that should be loaded along with the given objects, separated by commas (,). If empty, all columns will be loaded. Specifying a list without unnecessary columns may significantly improve performance.

  Culture code: Sets which culture version of the specified documents should be used.

  Select only published: Indicates if only published documents should be loaded.  
  Maximum nesting level: Specifies the maximum number of content tree sub-levels from which content should be loaded. This number is relative, i.e. counted from the start of the path specified for the content of the web part. Entering -1 causes all sub-levels to be included.

  System settings  
  Cache item name: Sets the name of the cache key used for the content of the web part. If not specified, this name is generated automatically based on the site, document path, Web part control ID and current user. A cache key can be shared between multiple web parts with the same content on different pages in order to avoid keeping redundant data in the memory.  
  Cache minutes: Sets the number of minutes for which the content of the web part should remain cached before its latest version is reloaded from the database. If left empty, the value entered into the Site Manager -> Settings -> System -> Performance -> Cache content (minutes) setting will be used instead. If set to 0, caching will be disabled for the web part.  
  Cache dependencies: Contains a list of cache keys on which the partial cache of the web part depends. When the specified cache items change, the partial cache of the web part is deleted. Each line may only contain a single item. If the Use default cache dependencies box is checked, the default dependencies will be used, which include all possible object changes that could affect the specific web part.
