The following targeters return product IDs.

GiftWrapItem

The GiftWrapItem targeter is an exception to the slot/scenario/targeter workflow described in Using Targeters, Slots, and Scenarios to Personalize Content for Customers. The GiftWrapItem targeter is called directly by the store.war/cart/gadgets/giftWrap.jsp page and it returns the product ID for the gift wrap item from the product catalog. This functionality supports the Gift Wrap feature that appears on the Commerce Reference Store shopping cart page.

Encapsulating the gift wrap product ID in a targeter provides two benefits:

  • It gives merchandisers access to the gift wrap item, through the Business Control Center, so that they can change it to point to a different product ID, if necessary. Because the gift wrap item is not part of the regular catalog hierarchy, the targeter is the only location where merchandisers can makes changes to the gift wrap item.

  • Changes to the gift wrap item’s product ID do not require changes to the JSP code.

HomeFeaturedProduct1, HomeFeaturedProduct2, HomeFeaturedProduct3, HomeFeaturedProduct4, and HomeFeaturedProduct5

The HomeFeaturedProduct1, HomeFeaturedProduct2, HomeFeaturedProduct3, HomeFeaturedProduct4, and HomeFeaturedProduct5 targeters each return a single product, based on user segment and site context. Each of these targeters defines a default rule set, which is used by ATG Store US, and override rule sets for the ATG Home and ATG Store Germany sites.

The HomeFeaturedProducts scenario uses these targeters to populate the recommended products section of the home page. For example, the following products are shown to the Men Only user segment on the ATG Store US site: Analog Watch, Laptop Briefcase, Leather Jacket, Double Layer Polo, and Hubbard Chair.

For example, the three products that are returned for the Men Only user segment on ATG Store US are: Classic Rugby Shirt, Distressed Jeans, and Cargo Shorts.
