Modifying the Display Name of a Customizable Product

This topic explains how to modify the customizable product name in the base theme. The base theme defines the basic page container within which the product theme displays. The base theme includes a header that contains the customizable product name that is stored in the Siebel database. You can define a UI property that changes the name of the customizable product or adds artwork or other formatting.

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

To change the display name of the customizable product, perform the following tasks:

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

  2. Assigning the New Base Theme Template. Assign the new base theme template to the customizable product.

  3. Defining a UI Property for the Customizable Product. This value is what displays in the selection pages.
