Two Approaches
Author In PlaceCross Site Publishing
The “Old” Way
Author In Place
Requirements: Publishing Site Template or…
Publishing Infrastructure Site Collection Feature
Publishing Site Feature
A “Pages” library created by the features being activated
Creating Content
Create page from
layout
Add layout metadata as needed
Add content on
page
Check in and publish
Approver completes publishing
Enhancements to Content Creation
You can now set Search Engine Optimization settings on each publishing page (except in Foundation)
Image Renditions allow quick and easy format selection
The “Embed” ribbon item & Script Editor Web Part allow for easier insertion of code
Images, Video, Scripts and Stuff
When adding images, videos, etc. to the Rich HTML field, another library is needed
Site Assets is a great location for this kind of content
Make sure that users who can view pages, also have access to the assets library
Use the Draft Item check before publishing
Demo
The “New” Way
Cross Site Publishing
Requirements: Cross Site Publishing Feature

Creating Content
Content is created in an authoring site
where cross site publishing is
enabled
Content is crawled by the Search
engine
Query results are shown in web parts across publishing site collections
So content is created in one site and viewed in others
But I Don’t Sell Products…
Product Catalog Site may not be what it sounds like
Site Columns, Content Types and a “Products” List are just templates really
Managed properties are a key but will likely be automatic
Setting up Cross Site Publishing
So what do we need? Either a Product Catalog Site or enable the Cross-Site Collection Publishing Feature
“Catalog enabled” lists and/or libraries
A term set with tags to apply to “catalog” items
A crawl of tagged content
A connection from a Publishing Site to the Catalog Site
Configured Content Search web parts
Catalog Lists and Libraries
Can be configured in list or library settings
Up to 5 Item URL fields are defined
A Navigation Hierarchy field is defined to create pinned navigation elements
Making the Connection
When connected to a publishing site collection, a “Result Source” is added
This can be used by the query defined in a “Content Search Web Part”
Category Pages
Special page layouts that are used for displaying structured catalog data
There are only two pages to maintain here, not several
One for all “categories” and one to show a specific category
You can create a page that just applies to a single URL
Friendly URLs
You are still using a page in the “Pages” library, but mapping category and item URLs
Content Search Web Part
The Content Search Web Part is the piece of the two page templates
The query automatically restricts by the navigation terms
Add a Property Filter to map a managed property to a URL token
Demo
Display Templates
This is how we control the look and feel of results defined by the query
Some display templates are built in
A Closing Thought
The “old way” of publishing uses a pages library to contain multiple pages with their own individual content.
The Pages Library can be catalog enabled.
Maybe we could just have one site containing pages which are then published to all other sites to display. This is kind of like the Content Type Hub.
