Lock and Deploy Content are part of two Commerce Vision's Multisite 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 on a deploying site can lock campaigns, then deploy these campaigns to the destination sites. Only locked campaigns can be deployedenable Campaign Lock. This allows campaigns to be locked. Once locked, a campaign can be  deployed to destination sites. CMS users on destination sites will not be able , to edit or delete locked deployed campaigns. 


Use case: CV Franchise HQ is launching a nationwide sales campaign to promote a specific set of products in for the month of August. All franchisee sites will be participating. The CMS Content Manager creates the whole October. It wants the campaign promoted on the homepage of all franchisee sites. With Campaign Lock enabled, the CMS Content Manager can create the campaign on the deploying site. then deploys all , lock it, then deploy the campaign and other required content to the destination site(s). 


Tip
titleRelated DeploymentsContent

Remember that apart from the campaign itself, setting up a campaign to display on a site needs other content and settings items need 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

    on a destination site for the campaign to display properly. 

    Supporting content objects for a campaign required include:

    • the page that displays the campaign
    • on that page, a campaign slider widget to render the campaign
    • products promoted in the campaign.

    These may need to be created, configured and/or deployed.
