I have a requirement to personalise the banner content of my site homepage depending on the other site sections (segments) a visitor has previously and/or most commonly visited.
My site is basically split into 3 sections SectionA/SectionB/SectionC. Assuming a visitor frequents the SectionA most often, one would assume I could class them into sectionA segment. Likewise for the other site sections. Each of my site sections is Tagged with the name of that section.
The idea is that next time the visitor visits the my homepage, the content displayed would then be personalised to match the segment they are assumed to belong too.
I have plenty of experience personalising content with Adobe Target, but next to zero without. Am I right in thinking this can be achieved via clientContext or contextHub?
PS: I have managed to get this working with contextHub tagCloud with segments based on tagCount>n, however this uses session storage by default and I can't find a way to configure persistent storage short of writing code to override the OOTB tagcloud store. Ideally, I'd like to write a persistent cookie and have my segment resolve based on the cookie value.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

in AEM, how does geometrixx-outdoor's Orders.html page work.
http://localhost:4502/aem/orders.html/etc/commerce/orders
my initial finding is that /libs/commerce/gui/content/orders is being rendered and data is fetched from /etc/commerce/orders folder. but i'm not able to figure out how it's fetching data for the users. i need to extend this functionality and check if i can use it for the functionality i need.
I'm posting an answer to my own question so that anyone in future might be able to find the post a bit helpful.
Resource Merger API of AEM can be used to extend admin pages in Adobe Experience Manager.
http://dev.day.com/content/ddc/en/gems/user-interface-customization-for-aem-6.html first 20 minutes of this screencast explains it really well.
more information about it is given at https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/using/extending-aem-6-administrator-user.html
in short, if one wants to add a nav bar entry in AEM, create a node after /apps/cq/core/content/nav. your node will be merged with /libs/cq/core/content/nav entries.
for creating your own pages in user interface, refer to /libs/commerce/gui/content/orders and create only the order node in libs folder(having a resource type granite/ui/components/foundation/page). main thing here is that the id in order node here should match the id given in nav bar node above. /libs/cq/gui/components/siteadmin/admin/pages/pages.jsp is the actual page which resolves the nodes to make header and body of pages.
explore the orders node to know more about how pages are created by adding only nodes.
I'm going to be creating a Concrete5 website that will feature product listings. The listing system must offer all your typical ecommerce features, minus the ability to purchase items. It's strictly for browsing purposes only.
For example:
- Browse by category
- Search products
- Listings/results page with thumbnails and brief information (title, description, price in US/CAD, manufacturer, maker, etc.)
- Products single page (with detailed information, attributes and gallery/images)
All the things you'd expect to find in a listing system.
My issue is I can't find a specific add-on for something like product listings. This leaves me thinking that it may be best to use the e-commerce add on and do my best to hide anything related to the cart/payment process. That way it could just be used for everything else it offers.
What are your thoughts on this? Is there a better option?
Thanks for the advice!
Use the page list block. It has everything you need except for searching. But, in essence, that's what your requirements call for -- listing of pages.
Create a page type for your "product". The "brief information" can be in the Content block, or you can set as attributes. You'll probably want to make some minor changes to the block's view (by creating a new template) that displays the image as you want, the proper attributes, etc. Something similar to http://www.concrete5.org/documentation/how-tos/designers/styling-the-page-list-block/
There are several adanced page list blocks in the marketplace. You might want to start with those.
Right creat Page type.
After creat Page attributes.
Add a block page_list create a template for it and filter by attributes.
You can even use ajax to filter.

U can find here about page_list or read documentation Concrete5.
I have a Joomla site I am developing that centers around designer handbags of a particular label
(not my site, it's a client's). It is not an ecommerce site, more of a social site.
What I am looking to do is present the user with a list of handbag styles and patterns so that
they can mark which items they have and which items they need.
Then two sections of content would be generated - one listing what they have and one listing what
they need.
I would also need to be able to include a direct menu link to that page.
Any ideas would be appreciated!
Probably the best way to do that would be to extend either community builder or JomSocial. Both have the ability to have custom user profiles which would go a long way to creating what you are looking for. You may even be able to do everything you want within the basic structure of one of those extensions.
I have created a signup form for secure zone in Business Catalyst. I want to give user access to that form in order to update the fields. I have created the page and its working only problem is there is no way to pre-populate custom fields in the form. I talked to their support and research a lot but all in vain. This is very basic thing BC missing. Is there a hack for it or some alternatives?
Just adding for anyone finding this that you can also populate fields that have been created and extended in the crm if they're stored against the customer record.
{module_customerfield,crmextformID,FieldID}
eg
{module_customerfield,7470,82256}
More info in the forums.
Good News Now Business Catalyst supports this feature for more information read:
Allowing Customers to view and update CRM details
I have had this same issue and hopefully there will be someway they can fix this in the future. What I did for the time being is I used other tags that I was not using. IE module_workcity was not and won't be used by me so I then put that in a field that I needed the custom tag for. Here is a screen shot of what I am referring to. - http://screencast.com/t/b3pvuOcTi one thing to note here the screen name is different than username for this site.
Note: When the user signs up I have the person filling out a field for the "workcity" and just change the labeling.
Not sure if this is an option for you, and it can take some work but might help.
Hope this helps. - Another note BC related question you will get quicker answers on the forums there - http://businesscatalyst.com/support/forums
I'm just starting to evaluate joomla CMS as a tool to build out my personal site. I'd like to manage multiple sites/domains with one copy of joomla on one host. so I'll own mysite.com and myothersite.com, which will both point to the same host/joomla code. If I do this I need to be able to set which domain/site the content I add shows up on. For some sites the content will be on both for others it will be on only one. What would be ideal it to have some kind of filtering mechanism so I don't have to manually set where the content goes.
What would be ideal is for me to set tags on the content and each site can specify which taged content to show.
My last requirement is that I be able to have different pages on each site.
Is this possible or am I asking too much from a "free" CMS?
Thanks all
I don't know if there's a component that achieves what you're describing here. I use a multi-language component in some of my sites that shows translations, but it doesn't "suppress" articles that doesn't have references to a translation: it just says "No translations to this article". I know you're not asking for translations methods, but I think the Joomfish way of selecting content based in a chosen language would be what you wanted, but not based in languages, just domains.
The only component I know it would be able to suppress articles based in pre defined parameters (in its case the language), is the Joomfish's "Table Localization Plugin", but you need to be a Joomfish silver member paying $60 to Joomfish's developers.
You could write a component(see here for plugin documentation), that analyzing the domain, would suppress articles that shouldn't appear in that specific domain. But I think it's going yo be a lot of work. You would learn a lot of Joomla's architecture, though.
How Joomla displays its content (output) is controlled entirely by parameters. So if you can control what parameters are loading, you can create multiple displays per host
However, that may be overkill in this case. You can just easily hack your template. Just make it load a different menu for siteA and siteB. (The host is set in $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'])
The menu on siteA could have a tagging component item, set to display articles tagged siteA.com. The siteB will have the same for its domain.
While there are extensions that will do what you describe (http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/core-enhancements/multiple-sites), Joomla is really designed for one site at a time. I've done setups where I use the same codebase for Joomla and manage it with version control, but I always end up launching multiple sites with individual databases.
However, I don't know of any CMS that inherently allows you to share articles across instances while keeping the data centralized. You may be looking at an extension (or your own customization) regardless of which platform you pick.
We had a similar problem with needing to share content across multiple Joomla! sites so we developed this extension: http://extensions.joomla.org/extension/simple-sharing
It is not very robust in terms of what it can share but it does let you share Articles across multiple sites and choose which sites and categories those articles get published into. I hope it works for you.
Thanks!
