Creating Device Previews


Prerequisites: See Publishing Prerequisites for details.

If you want to create a device-specific preview, you can group multiple devices into a bundle and designate a representative device for the bundle. The user agent of the representative device generates a preview for all the bundled devices.
To add a new device bundle and devices:
  1. Navigate to Administration > Publishing System > Device Manager.
  2. Ensure that the Enable Mobile Devices Emulation checkbox has been selected.
  3. Click the Add new Device Bundle button (+). A new device form opens.
  4. Enter a name or partial name for the device in the Name field.
  5. Click Add Devices.
  6. Select a device (or multiple devices) from the Select Mobile Devices dialog.
    Note
    In the Search field, you can modify the device name that you provided , then click the Search icon. A list of device bundles that meet your search criterion will display.
  7. Choose the appropriate device(s) from the list.

To add more devices to a bundle:

The first device you add to the bundle automatically becomes the representative device, but you can change the representative device at any time. The flag icon indicates the representative device.
