Catalog Essentials

This page provides the essential information for working with the catalog feature of enablement community sites.

The catalog feature, when included in a community site, allows community members to browse and select enablement resources listed in a catalog.

The enablement catalog component allows community members to access a catalog of enablement resources. The use of AEM tags is an important part of managing the appearance of enablement resources in a catalog.

See Tagging Enablement Resources.

Catalog Function

A community site structure that includes the Catalog function, includes a configured enablement catalog component.

Pre-Filters

When a Catalog function has been added to a community site, it is possible to restrict the enablement resources and learning paths which appear in the catalog by specifying a pre-filter. This is done by setting properties on the instance of the catalog resource for the site.

Using the example of the Enablement Tutorial:

• On author

• Using CRXDE

  • Such as https://<server>:<port>/crx/de

• Navigate to the catalog resource on the catalog page

  • For example, /content/sites/enable/en/catalog/jcr:content/content/primary/catalog

• Add a child filters node

  • Select the catalognode

  • Select Create Node

    • Name: filters
    • Type: nt:unstructured

  • Select Save All

• Add se_resource-tags property to the filters node

  • Select the filters node

  • Add a Multi property

    • Name: se_resource-tags

    • Type: String

    • Value: <enter a TagID>

    • Select Multi

    • Select Add

      • In popup dialog, select + to add additional pre-filter TagIDs

• Re-publish the community site

Pre-filter TagIDs

The pre-filter TagIDs must exactly match the tags applied to the enablement resources. These are visible in the resources folder for the site as the values of the property se_resource-tags.
