Aliases

[cp:privateLabeling default='Centralpoint' key='ProductTitle' /] developers maintain a list of terms which may be aliased by web sites.  All navigation items within a web site are also added to the list of aliasable terms.  This list is provided to web site owners for aliasing.

When a term is aliased its alias is displayed in all considered locations where the term would have been displayed.  A considered location is a location where the developer intended the word to be aliasable.  If the developer does not consider a location (intentionally or accidentally) the original term will be displayed in that location.

Aliasing a term will not affect that term if it is entered as content into a web site.  This is a feature that is being considered for Scripting, but it would still require consideration on the part of the individual creating the content.

When editing is available you may select a term from the drop down list and enter the replacement term in the alias text box.  The sync'd field is used to determine whether the alias should be sent to descendant web sites during the sync process.  The sync'd and delete checkboxes will be disabled if the alias was inherited from an ancestor web site.  The terms list contains a combined list of aliasable terms from the uber and master consoles.  It also contains the names of all accessible navigation items from in the current web site.  To prevent duplicate aliases the terms list only displays aliasable terms which have not yet been aliased.
