For Dev - How to Shorten URL (App Lib V2)

Attention: The current document only works with the new front-end lib from Boost Commerce. Please read this document first to know if you are using the latest version. For other versions, kindly contact support@boostcommerce.net for support.

In boost-pfs-filter.js, set these settings:

// Override Settings
var boostPFSFilterConfig = {
  general:
 {
    isShortenUrlParam: true,
    urlScheme: 2,
    /* This list is an EXAMPLE! Please don't copy this */
    shortenUrlParamList:
 [
      'pf_c_collection:collection',
       'pf_t_tag:tag',
      'pf_opt_color:color',
      'pf_opt_size:size',
      'pf_r_review_ratings:rate',
      'pf_v_vendor:vendor',
      'pf_p_price:price'
    ],
  },
};

• isShortenUrlParam: Enable shorten URL or not
• urlScheme
  • 0: Don't change address bar URL
  • 1: Use one key & value pair for each filter value: color=red&color=blue
  • 2: Merge key & value pair for filter value with the same key: color=red,blue
• shortenUrlParamList
  • Check the filter options the store has
  • Make a list of URL params to shorten, for example:
    • pf_c_collection → collection
    • pf_t_tag → tag
    • ...
  • Make sure the params are unique and don't conflict with other apps
  • Make a list with this format
