    Desired Outcome Goal:

    · How to translate the names of facet codes in the FE (in Facets to display)

     

    Procedure:

    1. If you go to the PNX and search for the code, you see that the code comes from the file facet/lfc01.
    2. In order to translate the data of lfc01, you have to create a code table with the following name:
    facet_local1_values_codes
    The relevant code is: default.facets.facet.facet_local1.<<code from pnx>>

     

    How to add the table:

    1. Go to the BO general configuration mapping table, to the Static Facets mapping table.
    2. Add the Local Field1 to the table and save*
    3. Go to the newly created Mapping table: facet_local1_values and add re relevant codes and values
    4. Click on Sync for the table
    5. A new mapping table named with the facet codes is now created.

     

    * NOTE: When defining facets as static (as done in #2), any new facet value should be added to the values Mapping Table (for example 'facet_local1_values'), otherwise the facet value won't appear in Primo Front End. 

    Additional Information

    If you don't want the facet to be a static facet, at the end of the process remove the Local Field1 from the 'Static Facets' mapping table.
