The Lighting Exchange offers seamless integration with your website, enabling manufacturers to publish validated product configurations directly to individual product pages with ease. This feature ensures that your customers always have access to the most accurate and up-to-date product information.
Publishing Process
Once a configuration has been created and thoroughly tested, users can easily control its availability by toggling the “Publish” button. This functionality allows configurations to transition between two states:
- Draft Mode: The configuration remains private and is not visible on the website.
- Published Mode: The configuration is live and accessible to website visitors on the associated product page.
Steps to Publish a Configuration
- Access the Configurator:
- Navigate to the product configurator within The Lighting Exchange platform.
- Select the Desired Configuration:
- Locate the configuration you want to publish from your list of saved configurations.
- Validate the Configuration:
- Ensure all product attributes, pricing, and ordering logic have been reviewed and meet your internal standards.
- Toggle the Publish Button:
- Click the “Publish” button to make the configuration live on your website.
- If needed, click the button again to revert the configuration back to draft status.
Benefits of Publishing Configurations
- Instant Updates: Any changes made to published configurations are reflected on the website in real-time.
- Improved Accuracy: Ensure customers are selecting the right product options with validated and up-to-date configurations.
- Easy Management: Effortlessly switch between draft and published states as your product data evolves.
Pro Workflow Tip: You can also access the configuration publish status from the “All Configurations” page and toggle the status without entering the configuration.
By leveraging The Lighting Exchange’s publishing capabilities, you can maintain a streamlined workflow and deliver an enhanced experience to your customers.
