QUESTION 43
A developer needs to configure a rendering in order to use dynamic placeholders. Which of thefollowing steps is required? Select all that apply.
Dynamic placeholders inSitecore XM Cloud with Next.jsare used when a rendering can have multiple instances on a page, each needing auniqueplaceholder name to avoid conflicts.
To configure a rendering withdynamic placeholders, the following steps are required:
* (A) Include theIDynamicPlaceholderbase template in the Rendering Parameters template
* Sitecore provides theIDynamicPlaceholderbase template to enable dynamic placeholders.
* When definingRendering Parameters, this template must beincludedto allow dynamic placeholder configuration.
* This ensures Sitecore recognizes the placeholders as dynamic rather than static.
* (B) Link the placeholder settings item to the rendering item
* In Sitecore,placeholder settingsdefine the allowed components for a placeholder.
* The rendering item should reference aPlaceholder Settings item, ensuring that only the allowed components can be added dynamically.
* This step is crucial to avoid runtime issues when rendering dynamic placeholders.
* (C) Define the placeholder key using a question mark (?) in the placeholder settings item # Incorrect
* Placeholder settingsdo notuse a question mark (?) to define a dynamic placeholder key.
* The?syntax was used in older Sitecore versions for dynamic placeholders, but inXM Cloud with Next.js, placeholders are handled differently usingGUID-based namingfor uniqueness.
* (D) In the component TSX file, set a unique placeholder key value that has not yet been defined # Incorrect
* Next.jsdoes not requiremanually setting a unique key.
* Instead, Sitecoreautomatically generatesa unique key for each dynamic placeholder instance usingGUID-based naming.
* In aNext.js JSS component, placeholders are defined using:
#Correct Answers:#Incorrect Answers:How Dynamic Placeholders Work in XM Cloud with Next.js:
import { Placeholder } from ‘@sitecore-jss/sitecore-jss-nextjs’;
const DynamicComponent = ({ rendering }) => {
return (
<div>
<Placeholder name=”dynamic-placeholder-{rendering.uid}” rendering={rendering} />
</div>
);
};
export default DynamicComponent;
* The{rendering.uid}ensures each placeholder instance has aunique name, avoiding conflicts.
