Cross-Promotional Badge
A cross-promotional badge allows you to define a graphic that represents a service or capability and tag multiple products with that badge.
The cross-promotional badge allows authors to define a graphic that will render at the bottom of a product page, indicating that the product is associated with a service, feature, or capability. Examples of badges are Flex Financial, various design awards, and an iBed Wireless enabled product, etc. If a visitor clicks the badge, they will navigate to a landing page that describes the service, feature or capability.
In contrast to manually adding the badge using a standalone image and configuring it repeatedly across multiple products, this component will manage the badge image configuration from a "service management" page so that it can be updated in one place without having to republish the product pages.
Multiple badges can be added to a page. They will appear below the customizable area and tiled from left to right up to 3 columns wide with the 4th badge wrapping to the next row.
The following prerequistes must be met before using this component:
- The products on which the badge will appear should be owned by your Business Unit
- Each product page should be tagged with a Product > (business unit) > (product name) tag
Upload the badge to Assets
- Create the graphic for the badge and upload it to the DAM.
Create a Service Management page
- In the tagging application, create a tag for the service, feature, or capability under stryker/services/(your new service)
- In Sites, under your business unit/services folder, create a new page using the SERVICES MANAGEMENT TEMPLATE. Title the page "(Your new service) management". One unique page will need to exist for each badge.
- Tag the page with the following 3 tags and save the page.
- Stryker > Content Type > Service Management
- Stryker > Business Unit > (Your Business Unit)
- Stryker > Services > (Your new service)
Add a Cross Promotional Badge Component
- Open the page in the editor and add a CROSS PROMOTIONAL SERVICE OBJECT component
- Configure it as follows:
- Link to page: Select the page that a visitor should navigate to if the badge is clicked
- Product Tag: Select the product(s) from your business on which this tag should appear
- Image: Select the image you uploaded
- Alternate Text: Provide text that describes the graphic
Publish
- Publish the graphic, tags, and service management page.
- Check the product pages; the badge should appear without having to republish the product pages.
