Set Config
Set Config is a special tag pair that allows you to configure certain settings on-the-fly, per customer, using conditionals. This tag has no output, and requires a page reload for it to take effect. Due to the way ExpressionEngine parses templates, CartThrob values are already loaded and set by the time templates render. If you use this tag, any effect it has will not be visible until a new page has been rendered, or the current page has been reloaded.
