Publishing Site – Connect to Catalog
With the Previous section, we have completed the Navigation as well. Now, we are in the last stage. That is, now we are going to establish a connection to an existing catalog.
1. Go to Publishing – Site Setting -> Manage Catalog Connections
2. Click on Connect to Catalog
3. Click on Connect – “Authoring – Pages”
4. Select the Options as above.
a. Connection Integration – Integrate the Catalog into my site
b. Navigation Hierarchy – DemoTag
c. Root term of hierarchy – select the termset
d. Catalog Item URL Behaviour – Make URLs relative to this site
e. Catalog Item URL format – Construct a URL format from catalog Properties.
f. Category Page – LandingPage.aspx
g. Item Page – ContentPage.aspx
With this, we are done with the Settings portion. Many of these settings can also be done using PowerShell. But I am not concentrating on them. Let us focus on the WebPart creation on the consecutive sections.
Let us see about the WebPart Creation using Visual Studio in Part9
Happy Coding.
