Slot Configurations in B2C Commerce

Two types of users participate in content slot development and implementation in Salesforce B2C Commerce: Merchants and Web Template developers.

The information described here’s intended for the merchant and those responsible for managing the content slots after they’re developed.

Take the following steps to develop and implement content slots in your storefront:

Step	Assigned to	Task	Tool
1	Merchant	Define overall storefront layout and design (wireframes). Define page templates needed and content placement on pages. Define how content appears on individual slots.	(Design phase)
2	Web Template Developers	Create Page Templates (add <isslot> tags) and define slots. Create rendering templates. Upload to Staging instance.	UX Studio
3	Merchant	Create and Edit Slot Configurations Specify the rules that define the type of content to show and when Reference the rendering template per slot.	Business Manager

Each slot has a unique Slot ID and context that developers specify in the Internet Store Markup Language (ISML) page template. To view these, click App Launcher , and then select site | Merchant Tools | Online Marketing | Contents Slots. For each storefront slot, you can define many slot configurations.

You can also import and export content slot configurations.
