From the Design tab, under Content source, in the Types of content to suggest field, select the source for content. If you select “Parts”, the program creates recommendations for parts based on their associated tags. If you select “Designations” the program creates recommendations for designations based on tags associated to designation records in Blackbaud CRM. |

If you selected “Designations” as the content type, under Designation summaries, design the suggested content display. Use merge fields to include information about recommended designations. The text box includes the Public Name, Purpose Description, and Designation Tags List merge fields by default. If you need other merge fields, click Advanced merge fields to select additional field groups. After you select field groups, the Merge fields button on the Insert tab in the toolbar appears so you can add the additional merge fields to the display. |
To format the content’s appearance and layout, use the HTML editor. For more information about the HTML editor, see HTML Editor.
Tip: To include an Add to cart link, insert the Desigation.BeginAddtoCart and Designation.EndAddtoCart merge fields. Users can click this link to add designations in the search results to their shopping carts.

Note: Tags are keywords or phrases that describe the content on parts and allow you to link to similar content. User interests are attributes associated with constituent records. For the Suggested Content part to be effective, you must associate tags and user interests with parts throughout your website. If you do not maintain these tags and user interests, the part cannot recommend the most relevant content or keep its suggestions up to date. For information about how to associate tags and user interests with parts, see Tags Tab. For information about how to capture user interests for website users, see User Interests Form.
