I'm getting ready for a content port and some changes were made to XPM settings in the dashboard settings menu: Settings>Inline Editing>Content Type Mappings>PublicationXYZ>Page Templates>PageTemplateXYZ

These changes were made to get XPM working with a new page template. What is the best method to port these settings to another environment? Is it included when you Content Port a Publication?

  • All the information I've found so far appears to indicate that these settings need to be manually duplicated across environments.

XPM Content Types are stored as Application Data attached to Publication. Normally, this Application Data is included if you use the CM Import/Export service to export/import the Publication (like Content Porter does).

Below is an example of the XPM Content Type Application Data (obtained from DXA Site Type Publication):

  • I found a post from Nuno which claimed that as well here: tridion.stackexchange.com/questions/15532/… But I was more specificially wondering; does this also include the Content Type Mappings (to Page Templates) as configured through the Inline Editing Settings as mentioned in the question.
