Page Designer Skill
This skill guides you through creating custom Page Designer page types and component types for Salesforce B2C Commerce.
Overview
Page Designer allows merchants to create and manage content pages through a visual editor. Developers create:
- Page Types - Define page structures with regions
- Component Types - Reusable content blocks with configurable attributes
File Structure
Page Designer files are in the cartridge's experience directory:
/my-cartridge
/cartridge
/experience
/pages
homepage.json # Page type meta definition
homepage.js # Page type script
/components
banner.json # Component type meta definition
banner.js # Component type script
/templates
/default
/experience
/pages
homepage.isml # Page template
/components
banner.isml # Component template
Naming: The .json and .js files must have matching names.

model.put('page', page);
return new Template('experience/pages/homepage').render(model).text;
};

Rendering Pages
In Controllers
var PageMgr = require('dw/experience/PageMgr');
server.get('Show', function (req, res, next) {
var page = PageMgr.getPage(req.querystring.cid);
if (page && page.isVisible()) {
res.page(page.ID);
} else {
res.setStatusCode(404);
res.render('error/notfound');
}
next();
});
In ISML
<isscript>
var PageMgr = require('dw/experience/PageMgr');
var page = PageMgr.getPage('homepage-id');
</isscript>
<isif condition="${page && page.isVisible()}">
<isprint value="${PageMgr.renderPage(page.ID)}" encoding="off"/>
</isif>
Component Groups
Organize components in the editor sidebar:
{
"name": "Product Card",
"group": "products"
}
Common groups: content, products, navigation, layout, media
Best Practices
- Use
dw.util.Templatefor rendering (NOTdw.template.ISML) - Keep components self-contained - avoid cross-component dependencies
- Provide default values for optional attributes
- Group related attributes in
attribute_definition_groups - Use meaningful IDs - they're used programmatically
- Don't change type IDs after merchants create content
Detailed Reference
For comprehensive attribute documentation:
- Meta Definitions Reference - Full JSON schema
- Attribute Types Reference - All attribute types with examples
