Special values in rule-based carousels

  • When you are populating a rule-base carousel the Value input will change when you select: Item Department, Item Category, Item Brand or Item Theme from the Field menu.
  • At the bottom of the Value menu, the value From this department, From this category, From this brand and From this theme
  • These are special values that need to be used carefully.

Example use of: from this department

  • If you include this rule in a carousel ruleset, it will restrict this carousel to only including products from the current department if the carousel is located on a department, category or product page.
  • Outside these pages, the rule will be ignored as the carousel won’t know which department to pick.

Example use of: from this brand

  • If you include this rule in a carousel rule set it will restrict this carousel to displaying products that match the current product brand name.
  • This restriction only works on product pages. 
  • Off product pages, this rule is ignored.
