Introduction
To add storefront editing tags manually Intershop 7 provides two strict modules. The <ISRENDERENTITYRENDERINGSTART>tag and <ISRENDERENTITYRENDERINGEND> tag can be used encasing the section that is responsible for the rendering of an object.
The <ISRENDERENTITYRENDERINGSTART>tag states that the rendering of the given render object is about to start. This might imply several actions by the system. This tag must be followed by the matching <ISRENDERENTITYRENDERINGEND> which states that the rendering of the given object has finished. This might also imply several actions by the system.
Syntax
<ISRenderEntityRenderingStart
(
RenderEntityRenderObject = "( {String} | {ISML expression} )"
RenderEntityID = "( {String} | {ISML expression} )"
RenderEntityContextData = "( {String} | {ISML expression} )"
RenderingContextData = "( {String} | {ISML expression} )"
)>
<ISRenderEntityRenderingEnd
(
RenderEntityRenderObject = "( {String} | {ISML expression} )"
RenderEntityID = "( {String} | {ISML expression} )"
RenderEntityContextData = "( {String} | {ISML expression} )"
RenderingContextData = "( {String} | {ISML expression} )"
)>
Example
The example below renders all categories in the passed iterator for a sitemap.
<isinclude template="modules/Modules">
<isif condition="#hasElements(CategoryBOs)#">
<ul class="ish-siteMapCategoryList">
<isloop iterator="CategoryBOs" alias="CategoryBO" counter="CategoryCount">
<iscachekey object="#CategoryBO#">
<isset name="CategoryBO" value="#CategoryBO#" scope="request">
<li class="ish-siteMapCategoryList-item ish-siteMapCategoryList-item-<isprint value="#CategoryCount#">
<isif condition="#(CategoryCount%2) == 0#"> ish-siteMapCategoryList-item-even <iselse>ish-siteMapCategoryList-item-odd</isif> ">
<ISUUID name="RenderEntityID">
<ISRenderEntityRenderingStart RenderEntityRenderObject="#CategoryBO#" RenderEntityID="#RenderEntityID#">
<ISViewContext ViewContext="#PageletConfigurationParameters:contextObjectRelation#">
<ISRenderEntityRenderingEnd RenderEntityRenderObject="#CategoryBO#" RenderEntityID="#RenderEntityID#">
</li>
</isloop>
</ul>
</isif>
Attributes
The two tags are configured with the same attributes. Of course, the attributes of matching start-tag and end-tag should be the same.
RenderEntityRenderObject
The PersistentObject (e.g., product, catalog category, etc) that is to be rendered (required).
RenderEntityID
A string that allows to match the <ISRENDERENTITYRENDERINGSTART> and <ISRENDERENTITYRENDERINGEND>(required).
RenderEntityContextData
A map <String, Object> that contains additional information about the RenderEntityRenderObject(optional).
RenderingContextData
A map <String, Object> that contains additional information about the context in which this module is called (optional).
