1. A Content Author cannot add components to a page location you’ve identified as the main placeholder. What is the possible solution for this issue?
   You enable placeholders in Sitecore.config
   You create a Placeholder Settings item
   You dynamically bind the Placeholder to the Layout
   You add a placeholder to Allowed Placeholders folder

Non-existent Solr path

5. From what interfaces can you access the Publishing Wizard? (2 correct)
   Experience editor and content editor (and also Sitecore Desktop but there was not a choice)

6. How would you publish after an item is changed in the code?
   code publish – manually copy cshtml files from solution to web root folder
   (not publish from sitecore because that just moves master->web)

7. In what file would you map the home item to a corresponding host name
   Patch config file

8. What is a template
   A Data Structure

20. Diagram – which fields are candidates for template inheritance
    If the same field is in all three templates, it can be moved to the base template

21. When is template inheritance not recommended for fields with the same name
    When the fields require different field sources

22. For which fields do you have to set a source field
    multilist, droptree, treelist

23. What is the difference between a droplist and a multilist
    Droplist – users select one item,

    Yes, because even though the fonts are different they still have the same source

27. Where should you set up presentation details
    In standard values to standardize the creation process and keep content editors from adding their own presentation details

28. What is required to create a layout
    A Layout definition item defined in Sitecore mapped to a layout .cshtml file

29. What happens if you remove any of the layout details
    The rendering will not be visible because in order for a Layout to be visible it requires a Layout and Controls

30. What is a dynamic placeholder
    same key – unique content
    can add the same placeholder name several times across one or multiple renderings

    Checkbox

35. When adding a new component that shares the same data source as another, what is an alternative to creating it from scratch
    Using Compatible Renderings

36. Why would you use static component binding
    Static binding means adding a rendering to a page in a raw way. Or
    When you want to stop content editors from removing a component

37. Why would you specify a the Datasource location for a rendering
    To restrict content editors so they must select content from a specific part of the content tree

38. What is the difference between Datasource location and Datasource template
    Datasource location filters by location in the content tree, but Datasource template filters based on a template

39. When would you add insert options on an item in the content tree instead of the standard values for that item’s template
    When you want to add additional options from what is in the standard values

40. Describe ASP.NET Core headless architecture

• independent, render Sitecore content
• De-coupled
• light-weight
• consumes Sitecore Layout Service
• Preview code changes

41. What is a Custom View
    reusable, complex logic, used for nav menus, login panels, search bar

42. What is Startup.css file
    Map Sitecore rendering component name to an implementation
    
43. What does sitecore.json do
    Specifies what CLI plugins were installed and specifies location of json files containing serialization info
    “modules”: [
    “src/path/to/.module.json”
    ]

44. What does module.json do
    Must be added to all folders where serialization takes place
    Specifies what path must be serialized
    Without module.json file, or if it doesn’t contain the paths = no serialization
    Sitecore Content Serialization (SCS) comes with module.json based configurations
