The Preview feature enables you to see how different entities appear on third party websites. This feature uses HTML/CSS templates to display records in a preview window, allowing you to review how your data will look when displayed externally.
Preview templates
To create a preview, you must first create a template. Each template is used for one entity type, and each entity can have several templates. To create a template, go to Administration / Preview Templates.
You will then need to create an HTML/CSS template with all the pre-defined properties, including the desired screen sizes.
Usage of templates in entities
To see how templates are applied to a record of a selected entity, go to any record of that entity and click on the button with the name of the template. It will appear in the header of the record.
Product Preview (Predefined Template)
For products, AtroCore provides a predefined template that offers comprehensive product information review capabilities. This built-in preview allows you to:
- Review all product fields (including meta information), all product attributes and all product images
- Filter data by channel using the "Channels" drop-down list to see product attributes from the perspective of that specific channel
- Filter by language using the "Languages" selection list to see product information as it appears in different languages
- Change the product status directly from the preview page after reviewing all information
To access the product preview, click on the "Full Page Preview" button in the main action menu on the product detail page. The preview appears in a large overview window. To close the preview, click the "x" icon in the upper right corner.
Product Preview Features
The product preview displays comprehensive information including:
- All product fields and meta information
- All product attributes

After reviewing all product information, you can change the product status directly on the preview page.
If inconsistencies in the product information are found, close the preview and correct them on the product detail page.
