Creating a Footprint Set
Create a Footprint Set to have a reusable set of Footprint settings to apply to webpages.
Procedure
- On an editable webpage, start editing by clicking the pencil button in the top right corner.
- Select the Preview tab in the ribbon toolbar.
In the Footprints area, you see a dropdown 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.
- Open the dropdown.
You see a list of the following:
- 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
- Select any item other than No Footprint Set Applied from the dropdown and click Edit Footprint Set.
A Footprint Settings dialog opens.
- Change one or more of the Footprints you see by doing one of the following:
- Click on the grey circle on the left of the Footprint you want to overwrite.
- Select the Footprint you want to overwrite, and in the content area, select Overwrite with the following value.
In either case, the grey circle of this Footprint is now a white checkmark on a green background, and in the content area, Overwrite with the following value is selected. - Below Overwrite with the following value, select or enter an overwrite value for this field. Depending on the field, you may see radiobuttons, a dropdown, a text field, or a different control. (You may see an indication that your value is invalid and instruct you to change it.)
- Repeat these steps for any other Footprints you want to overwrite.
- When you have finished, click Save as New Set.
A Title field appears and, if you have permissions to do so, a Share this Footprint Set check box also appears.
- Give your Footprint Set a name and, if you can and want to, select to share this Footprint Set with other users. Then click Save.
- Your new Footprint Set appears in the dropdown and, if you shared it, also in the corresponding dropdown of other users. Your new Footprint Set is selected and applied. The dropdown item also shows the values applied.
- You can now edit the content you see, or navigate to another editable webpage to see how it looks with your new Footprint Set applied.
