Set the default catalog

If you have multiple store catalogs, we can set a default catalog. Customers in the store see content from the default catalog.

(Enterprise) If we are using extended sites, see Setting the default catalog for an extended site.

Your store has one master catalog and can have multiple sales catalogs. When you first use the default catalog, the master catalog is set as the default catalog until a different catalog is selected with the Catalogs tool. The default catalog can be selected among any store sales catalogs.

Procedure

1. Open the Catalogs tool.

2. Select the store.

3. From the explorer filter, select Default Catalog. The Default Catalog properties view is displayed in the main work area.

4. Click the Manage Default Catalog tab. Use the Find and Add function, or the utilities view to find the catalog that we want to set as the store default catalog.

5. Select and add the catalog into the default catalog table.

6. Save our changes.

7. Preview the store with store preview to verify your setting:

   1. Click

      , or click File > Store Preview

   2. Confirm that the store we are working in is selected and click the Launch Store Preview button.

   3. Confirm that the catalog that displays is the store default catalog.
