Viewing Promotion contents for a Footprint Set

A Footprint is a specific property of a browsing session, such as the browser being used or geographic location from which the webpage is accessed. A Footprint Set defines a set of conditions (Footprints) you can apply to content to see what a webpage would look like to a visitor if those conditions were applied.

Before you begin

For information about setting up and creating Footprint Sets, refer to Tridion Sites suite documentation.

Procedure

  1. In the slide out navigation pane, select Editing Sites then choose a staging environment.
  2. Select the Preview tab in the ribbon toolbar.
    In the Footprints area, you see a drop-down menu with the value Session Footprint Set selected. This means that you see content targeted for Footprints that apply to you, such as the browser you use or your geographic location.
  3. Open the drop-down menu to view the following information:
    • The Session Footprint Set item
    • A No Footprint Set Applied item
    • Footprint sets that you defined and saved earlier, if any
    • Footprint sets that a user has created and is sharing (indicated by the hand icon), if any
  4. If the drop-down menu contains more items than just Session Footprint Set and No Footprint Set Applied, select a Footprint Set from the drop-down menu. The Footprint Set shows the values that this Footprint Set overwrites your personal Footprint settings with.
    The webpage now shows content that is targeted based on the conditions configured in the Footprint Set you selected.
  5. Edit the content you see as you would any other content, or navigate to another editable webpage to see how it looks with this Footprint Set applied.
