The tag is displayed beside the Tags field.

Filter by tag

On the Rules page:
  • under the Tags column, click the tag you want to filter with.
  • or in the Filter box, enter the tag name (for example, laptop) and then click Enter.

The Rules page now only displays Rules with that tag.

Filter by keyword

On the Rules page, in the Filter box, enter your keyword, and then click Enter.

Setting rule priority

Priority determines the order of execution if a search result matches the trigger conditions for multiple rules. Rule priority value ranges from 1 to 100. The lower this value, the higher the rule priority.

Content Recommender evaluates rules as follows:

  • First Content Recommender evaluates feeds as they appear in the Feeds view of the page in Mashup Builder, starting from the top.

  • Then, if the feed has multiple rules, each rule is evaluated in order of priority value. The rule with the lowest priority value is evaluated first.

Set rule priority

  1. On the Rules page, click the name of the rule to modify.
  2. On the General tab beside Priority, adjust the slider or enter a value between 1 and 100.

    The lower the value, the higher the priority

  3. Click anywhere in the General tab to save the change.
