Page Designer Skill

This skill guides you through creating custom Page Designer page types and component types for Salesforce B2C Commerce.

Overview

Page Designer allows merchants to create and manage content pages through a visual editor. Developers create:

1. Page Types - Define page structures with regions
2. Component Types - Reusable content blocks with configurable attributes

File Structure

Page Designer files are in the cartridge's experience directory:

/my-cartridge
    /cartridge
        /experience
            /pages
                homepage.json           # Page type meta definition
                homepage.js             # Page type script
            /components
                banner.json             # Component type meta definition
                banner.js               # Component type script
        /templates
            /default
                /experience
                    /pages
                        homepage.isml   # Page template
                    /components
                        banner.isml     # Component template

Naming: The .json and .js files must have matching names.

Page Types

Meta Definition (pages/homepage.json)

{
    "name": "Home Page",
    "description": "Landing page with hero and content regions",
    "region_definitions": [
        {
            "id": "hero",
            "name": "Hero Section",
            "max_components": 1
        },
        {
            "id": "content",
            "name": "Main Content"
        },
        {
            "id": "footer",
            "name": "Footer Section",
            "component_type_exclusions": [
                { "type_id": "video" }
            ]
        }
    ]
}

Page Script (pages/homepage.js)

'use strict';

var Template = require('dw/util/Template');
var HashMap = require('dw/util/HashMap');

module.exports.render = function (context) {
    var model = new HashMap();
    var page = context.page;

    model.put('page', page);

    return new Template('experience/pages/homepage').render(model).text;
};
