Modifying the Display Name of Groups

This topic explains how to modify group names that display in the product themes. For example, you can use UI property definitions to define what displays on each tab in a tabbed product theme.

To change the name of a group in a product theme, you insert a variable in the product theme Web template. This variable tells the Web Engine to get the item name from a defined UI property rather than using the group name you defined in the User Interface view.

To change the display name of a group, perform the following tasks:

  1. Creating a New Product Theme Template. You do this by saving a copy of the product theme template. Then you insert a variable name in the new template.

  2. Assign the New Product Theme Template. Assign the new product theme template to the customizable product.

  3. Define a UI Property for all the Groups. For each group name, you give the variable the desired value. This value is what displays in the configuration Web pages.

You must define a UI property for all the group names, not just the ones you want to change. This is because the product theme template determines the display name of the all the groups. When you insert a UI property variable in the template, the Web Engine gets all the group names from UI property definitions.
