Navigation Bar

The Orbee Personalized Navigation Bar allows visitors on your website to quickly navigate to their past viewed vehicles, and is one of many Site Plugins Orbee provides to personalize your website for your customers.

Installation

To install the Personalized Navigation Bar, place the following code snippet on your desired location with your Orbee Plugin ID. If you do not have your Orbee Plugin ID, contact.

<orb id="orbee-personalized-experience"
     data-type="navbar"
     data-plugin-id="{ORBEE_PLUGIN_ID}"
     data-default="hide">
</orb>
<div data-orb
     id="orbee-personalized-experience"
     data-type="navbar"
     data-plugin-id="{ORBEE_PLUGIN_ID}"
     data-default="hide">
</div>

The Personalized Navigation Bar will bind to the first orb element that contains the data-plugin-id attribute. The site plugin will take the full width of its parent element and have a maximum height of 140px.

Install Verification

If the code was installed correctly, the site plugin will display if the visitor has previously viewed vehicles.

You can change the configuration for the default behavior of the site plugin by following the instructions below.

Configuration

The site plugin can be configured by adjusting the values on the binding element's data attributes. This includes changing default behavior and providing custom styling.
