Lock and Deploy Content are part of Commerce Vision's Multisite features. Implementation requires consultation with Commerce Vision. Deploying and destination sites must be on the same version (min. 2022.2). 


Overview

For multisite control, CMS Administrators of the deploying site can lock campaigns, then deploy these campaigns to the destination sites. Only locked campaigns can be deployed. CMS users on destination sites will not be able, edit or delete locked deployed campaigns. 


Use case: Franchise HQ is launching a nationwide sales campaign to promote a specific set of products in the month of August. All franchisee sites will be participating. The CMS Content Manager creates the whole campaign on the deploying site. then deploys all required content to the destination site(s). 


Tip
titleRelated Deployments

Remember that apart from the campaign itself, setting up a campaign to display on a site needs other content and settings to be in place. This means other objects need to be configured and deployed. For instance, you will have to:

  • configure and deploy the page/template the campaign is to display on
  • on the page/template, add a campaign slider configured to render this campaign
  • ensure the products in the campaign are available on destination sites.
