New Product Browsing - ROES Web
ROES Web Product Browsing Updates
Use this article to explain the updated ROES Web product browsing experience, including graphical product group icons, custom group images, breadcrumbs, and test URL format.
Availability
This product browsing update was available on ROES Web test clients first, with live availability planned for mid-January 2021.
Graphical Product Groups
Product groups are graphically represented within the product browsing workspace. ROES Web generates and displays an icon for each group.
- If a group contains products, the icon is an overlay of the first three products in the group.
- If the group contains additional groups, the icon appears as a folder icon.
- If the group contains both templates and groups, the icon represents templates.

Custom Group Images
A custom image can be used by adding the groupimage attribute with a URL to a JPG or PNG file.
The optimum image size is approximately 50 pixels high by 50 pixels wide.
If this image does not display, open it directly: Attr-groupimage_3.jpg
Updated Breadcrumbs
Breadcrumbs represent the current product path in the workspace. The updated breadcrumb look is available throughout the browsing process.

Finding the ROES Web Test URL
If you are unsure of the ROES Web test URL, it can be deduced from the live URL. Add Test to the domain name and Test to the config name.
| Live URL | www.roesweb.com/configs/<ROESWebConfigName>RW/products |
|---|---|
| Test URL | www.roeswebtest.com/configs/<ROESWebConfigName>RWTest/products |
Expected Result
Product groups should appear as graphical icons in the product browsing workspace, breadcrumbs should show the current product path, and the ROES Web test client should be reachable by adding test to the ROES Web domain and Test to the config name.
Escalation Notes
- Confirm the customer is using the ROES Web test client when previewing the updated behavior before live release.
- For custom group icons, confirm the groupimage attribute points to a valid JPG or PNG URL.
- Use an image close to 50x50 pixels for best custom group icon results.
- If the test URL is unknown, derive it from the live URL by adding test to the domain and Test to the config name.
