Re: How to arrange the display of mutiple product in one group in magento shoping cart.

Are all of them simple products?  Does it make sense to group them into Grouped or Bundle product?

 

Also to group them you need to know what is criteria for grouping. If it something custom you can do  it in the cart themplate where cart items displayed. as i know its app/design/frontend/{theme}/{package}/template/checkout/cart.phtml

and template of each item is: app/design/frontend/{theme}/{package}/template/checkout/cart/item/default.phtml

In Magento you have to consider product display in the catalog separately from product display in the cart, because the Catalog module is the basis for display for things being presented for purchase and the Checkout & Sales modules are responsible for display of items in the cart or being purchased.

 

You can specify a custom grouped cart item template in a custom layout XML file - note that you will likely want to customize both the cart display and order review display. The following example layout XML allows you to specify alternate files for grouped products:

 

    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <layout>
        <!--
            ref checkout.xml layout file
        -->
        <checkout_cart_index>
            <action method="addItemRender" block="checkout.cart">
                <type>grouped</type>
                <block>checkout/cart_item_renderer_grouped</block>
                <!--
                    Below you specify a custom template which you can create

                    For > CE 1.9 you should probably base this on default.phtml
                    from rwd/default/template/checkout/cart/item/default.phtml.

                    For < CE 1.9 you should base this on default.phtml template
                    from base/default/template/checkout/cart/item/default.phtml.
                -->
                <template>checkout/cart/item/grouped_custom.phtml</template>
            </action>
        </checkout_cart_index>

        <checkout_onepage_review>
            <action method="addItemRender" block="root">
                <type>grouped</type>
                <block>checkout/cart_item_renderer_grouped</block>
                <!--
                    As above; reference template for this should be
                    checkout/onepage/review/grouped_custom.phtml
                -->
                <template>checkout/onepage/review/grouped_custom.phtml</template>
            </action>
        </checkout_onepage_review>
    </layout>
