Issue

  • When using a Category Filter with an Asset Publisher in my Portal, when selecting the category, my URL displays the ID of that category instead of its name.
  • Is it possible to configure my URL so that it displays the category name instead of the ID?

Environment

  • DXP 7.4
  • DXP 7.3

Resolution

  • Unfortunately this is a configuration that cannot be achieved through some of the OOTB functionality in the Portal.

  • Displaying the category ID in the URL is a expected behavior and changing this behavior can only be achieved through Customization

Additional Information

  • Themes related to the customization of the Portal is something that reaches the limits of OOS (Out of Scope) in the Support Team.
  • For more details, see: Customizations
