If you include an item field as a facet field in the website setup record, it is possible that the field will show up as a filter in the sidebar of the PLP. Follow these steps to hide that field from the PLP while still retaining usage of the field elsewhere on the site.
Instructions
- Navigate to the SCA configuration record.
- Cntrl + F “Facets ()” to get to the Facets subtab.
- Add the Item Field ID and Field Name to the Facets list. Choose the following settings:
- Priority: 10
- Behavior: (blank)
- Template: facets_faceted_navigation_item.tpl
- Color palette: (blank)
- Collapsed: Yes
- Non collapsible: (blank)
- Show Heading: (blank)
- Title format: (blank)
- Title Separator: (blank)
- Parser: Default
- Is URL parameter?: (blank)
- Max: (blank)
- Save SCA config record.
- Hard refresh the PLP (ctrl + shift + R)
- NOTE: The facet can still be found upon inspection of the PLP in the browser, but this is currently the best solution.
