Table of Contents
Super Admins use the Configure Featured Catalog Items tool to select featured catalog items. The type of featuring used on the site is determined by the 'manual_feature_catalog item' option setting in Configure Kavi® Showcase. If this option is set to 'Yes', manual featuring is enabled and the featured catalog items schedule is displayed. If this option is set to 'No', automated featuring is enabled. The tool presents different options depending on whether featured catalog items are to be selected manually or automatically.
Featured catalog items may be displayed on the showcase landing page and elsewhere throughout the site. The featured displayed on the showcase landing page is selected randomly from all those features currently scheduled for display and those with no specified start or end dates. If there are no features on the list or none with current display dates, the featured catalog item box is not displayed on the showcase landing page.
View and manage featured catalog items manually if the 'manual_feature_catalog item' option is set to 'Yes'.
Configure automated catalog item selection if the 'manual_feature_catalog item' option is set to 'No'.
The current selection of featured catalog items is displayed along with tools that allow you to Edit the featuring schedule or Delete the catalog item from the featured catalog items list. To select another catalog item for featuring, click Add a Featured Catalog Item.
Fields
- Name
The name of this catalog item as displayed in the catalog.
- Start Date
The date that featuring is scheduled to start. If this is 'None', the start date isn't defined so the featuring begins immediately if all criteria used to gate display are met.
- End Date
The date that featuring is scheduled to end. If this is 'None', the end date isn't defined so the featuring continues indefinitely.
- Categories
-
A category to which this catalog item is assigned. If this is a subcategory, the category hierarchy is displayed. Depending on configuration, you may be able to assign multiple categories. All categories are custom to your organization, added by a 'Showcase Super Admin' through the Manage Catalog Item Categories tool.
These categories are used to classify the catalog item, and determine where the item is displayed in browses and how it is retrieved in searches.
- Action
Click the Edit link to change the dates or the Delete link to remove this catalog item from the featured items schedule.
