Integration problems

The Product Guide is not entirely displayed or not visible at all

Please check if there are any <div> container or CSS collisions that might hide or overlay the Product Guide.

The Product Guide does not at all behave responsively

Please check if your integration page is entirely responsive. The excentos Product Guide can only be responsive if the integration page is responsive. Make sure your page uses a viewport meta tag, e.g.:

 <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">

JavaScript collisions

excentos uses a JavaScript / HTML5 client with all advantages of a Single Page Application. Most shops and websites also use JavaScript frameworks. In rare cases, the JavaScript framework of your system may interfere with the JavaScript framework used by excentos.

CSS namespace collisions

the CSS code used by your website may use the same namespaces as used by excentos. excentos typically avoids this problem by using our own name prefixes, but hey, it may collide.

Problems with page margins or spacing

If there are e.g. more pixels on the left or right side around the Product Guide, or if it is not vertically aligned with your top menu, please make sure that there are no page margins or CSS rules set around the integration code of the Product Guide.

Content Security Policy (CSP) / Cross-Domain (CORS) problems

If the Product Guide or parts like images and fonts don't load at all, please check your Content Security Policy (CSP) and the Cross-Domain Resource Sharing (CORS) settings. Typically following servers need to be accessed:

Optionally, you could whitelist our servers *.excentos.com for image- and script-tags in CSP and CORS settings on your website.

If you use region-blocking, please contact us for a list of IP addresses of our servers in order to enable our service.

Please do not mix HTTP and HTTPS on the integration page. We use only HTTPS for all connections.

Remove empty characters if you use "document write"

If you are using a "document write" method to insert the integration code into your integration page, please make sure to remove all spaces and line breaks from the integration code. Otherwise, the "document write" method will not insert a correct integration code.

Product images not displaying

If your product images are not displayed, a possible reason is that your website / e-commerce system / IT configuration blocks cross-site content.
excentos uses an image server that is especially optimized to quickly deliver high-resolution images. In some cases, it might be necessary to whitelist its IP address in your environment. Please request the IP addresses from excentos support.

Wrong product assortment

Make sure you are using the correct Channel ID

If your Product Guide will be used e.g. in different countries or markets, please make sure to select the correct channel ID per market. Every specific integration page needs to contain a different channel parameter in order for the Product Guide to display the right product assortment. Please note that the displayed language can be set separately.

See this example of the channel "jp-ja" (i.e. Japan) and the language English (en_GB) selected:
