Introduction

This document provides general guidance to the integration of multiple plug-ins available for EPiServer Commerce. There are a number of different plug-ins for extending the functionality of the EPiServer Commerce platform. This document describes what you need to consider when working with the integration of multiple plug-ins.

Integration of Plug-ins for EPiServer Commerce

There are several different plug-ins available for the EPiServer Commerce platform:

  • Product Link
  • Product Picker Dynamic Content
  • Product Picker Property

    You can download and install one or more of them. When integrating several plug-ins for a solution, they should be merged into one single project. The reason is that all plug-ins use same SelectProductControls (ProductPicker.aspx, SelectProductControl.aspx). To be able to use them together, it is necessary to merge them into one project and build to only one dll.

    By default, each plug-in is one standalone project. After merging the project should look like this:

    Deploying the Integrated Plug-ins Project

    Do the following to deploy the integrated plug-in project:

    1. Rebuild your merged project.

    3. To configure and work withe the plug-ins, please refer to the installation and user guide for each plug-in separately.
