Quo vadis, W4D?

May 21, 2019May 19, 2019 ~ Jan Exner ~ 7 Comments

Those of you who have been to the Adobe Summit, or any other big event like it, may have been a victim of post-Summit blues - the feeling when you're back from a couple of ridiculously intense days of listening, meeting, talking, discussing, and fully committing to one single subject. It is part exhaustion, part … Continue reading Quo vadis, W4D?

Reference – Launch Load Order with an Extension

May 7, 2019May 6, 2019 ~ Jan Exner ~ 2 Comments

This article is a followup to Reference - Launch Load Order. That other one was, as I said, almost disappointingly simple. So simple, in fact, that it annoyed my friend Lukáš (one of my secret goals for 2019 checked off right there). The article was that simple for two reasons: Launch did away with a … Continue reading Reference – Launch Load Order with an Extension

Launch – Concepts

March 19, 2019March 15, 2019 ~ Jan Exner ~ 2 Comments

I could have called this article "Launch - WTF???" instead, and maybe I should have. This is a quick and brutal journey though the most important concepts you need to know when you start using Launch. Tag Management Let's start from 0. A "Tag Manager", "Tag Management System", or simply "TMS" is a tool that … Continue reading Launch – Concepts

7 things I learned about making Extensions

February 19, 2019February 19, 2019 ~ Jan Exner ~ 5 Comments

Pedro Monjo's reaction to my last post was to simply quote this bit: "Well, obviously, we build an Extension!" My brain cannot stop thinking like that, and it's all because I think encapsulating or hiding complexity behind a UI will help greatly in the long run. I don't even want to tell you how many … Continue reading 7 things I learned about making Extensions

Fire Launch Rule Upon Scroll Depth And Time Spent

January 15, 2019January 16, 2019 ~ Jan Exner ~ 15 Comments

The inimitable Simo Ahava recently posted an article named Fire GTM Tag Upon Scroll Depth And Time Spent, in which he explains both why and how to fire tracking after visitors have either lingered on or scrolled to a certain depth on pages. With his permission, I'll show you how to do the same with … Continue reading Fire Launch Rule Upon Scroll Depth And Time Spent

2019 Challenge: no Custom Code

January 8, 2019January 8, 2019 ~ Jan Exner ~ 11 Comments

Challenge for the year 2019: no custom code I challenge myself (and you!) to not use any custom code when you deploy any of the Experience Cloud Solutions. Rules There is only one rule, actually, which is: if you need any Javascript code, put it into an Extension, publish the Extension (privately if the Javascript … Continue reading 2019 Challenge: no Custom Code

Launch – Make an Extension – Publish

December 4, 2018December 4, 2018 ~ Jan Exner ~ 6 Comments

Another article in the "Launch - Make an Extension" series. See the other ones here: Overview, Setup, Coding, Debugging, on a Mac, and Reloaded I had an hour or so of deep frustration the other day, when I tried to transition an Extension I had built from "Development" state (in which it can only be … Continue reading Launch – Make an Extension – Publish

Launch – Make an Extension – Reloaded

November 20, 2018November 17, 2018 ~ Jan Exner ~ 4 Comments

Since the last article in my "Launch - Make an Extension" series (see Overview, Setup, Coding, Debugging, on a Mac), the ecosystem has evolved. There have been some small changes, and some big ones. I want to talk about two of those today. Using the provided packages has become easier, and you can now upload … Continue reading Launch – Make an Extension – Reloaded

Launch – Make an Extension – Debugging

January 30, 2018January 29, 2018 ~ Jan Exner ~ 6 Comments

Here comes part 3 of the mini series on "Making a Launch Extension". We looked at the setup and the coding. Today we discuss debugging. I'm sure you are way better than me when it comes to writing HTML and Javascript, but I'm also sure whatever you write is unlikely to work first time round. … Continue reading Launch – Make an Extension – Debugging

Launch – Make an Extension – Coding

January 23, 2018January 23, 2018 ~ Jan Exner ~ 4 Comments

Part 2 of the "Make a Launch Extension" mini series is about the actual coding. You can find the other parts here: setup, debug, publish. This article is split in two parts, aligned with the two different parts the extension has to provide: UI and actual JS code. Let's start with the UI. UI Your … Continue reading Launch – Make an Extension – Coding
