A Sitecore Support Package is a ZIP file that contains information about the Sitecore instance, such as configuration files, log files, license files, and diagnostic information. It is generated by using a built-in tool in Sitecore that collects and packages the relevant data. The purpose of a Sitecore Support Package is to help Sitecore Support Services to replicate an issue withoutneeding to access the environment directly. By sending a Sitecore Support Package to Sitecore Support, you can provide them with the necessary information to troubleshoot and resolve your issue faster and more efficiently. References: https://support.sitecore.com/kb?id=kb_article_view &sysparm_article=KB0406145

Partial view components are generally for lightweight components on a Sitecore page that do not contain their own content, such as structural components that contain just placeholders1. Partial view components are similar to partial views in ASP.NET Core, but they are invoked using the Html.Sitecore().Rendering() method instead of the Html.Partial() or Html.RenderPartial() methods2. Partial view components are useful when you want to render multiple placeholders within a component, such as a header or a footer3. References:

 Sitecore headless development is based on a decoupled architecture where the rendering host is a separate application that handles the presentation logic and the Content Delivery role is a Sitecore instance that handles the content management and delivery. The rendering host communicates with the Content Delivery role using Sitecore headless services, which are APIs that expose Sitecore content and layout data in a JSON format. The rendering host translates a visitor request to a content item in the Sitecore instance. The Sitecore instance using Sitecore headless services returns the content item and the associated presentation details, and so on, to the rendering host. The rendering host renders the content item for the visitor. This way, the rendering host can use any technology or framework that supports HTTP requests and JSON parsing, such as ASP.NET Core, React, Angular, Vue, etc. References:

Versioned layouts allow you to create different layouts for different versions of an item. This means you can have a specific layout for a specific version of the main page that is published for a specific period, such as a company anniversary celebration. You can easily revert to the original layout by switching back to the previous version of the main page. Versioned layouts are stored in the __Renderings field of the item, which is a versioned field. Versioned layouts are enabled by default in Sitecore 10. References:

To limit the serialization of items under the Navigation item to the item itself and those one step below, you should add the scope property to the includes. The scope property specifies the range of content items to include or exclude from serialization. The possible values are: ItemOnly, ItemAndDescendants, ItemAndAncestors, and ItemAndSiblings. In this case, the scope should be set to ItemAndDescendants, which means the include will serialize the Navigation item and all its direct children. For example, if the Navigation item has the path /sitecore/content/home/navigation, you can add an include like this:

“items”: { “includes”: [ { “name”: “navigation”, “path”: “/sitecore/content/home/navigation”, “scope”: “ItemAndDescendants” } ] }

 The sitecore.json file is the project configuration file that contains several properties, including a modules property that references the relevant Sitecore Content Serialization modules. If the path of a specific module file is not set in the modules property, the SCS system will not be able to locate and access the module file, which contains the items to be serialized. Therefore, the paths and related items included in the module will not be serialized when you run a push or pull command. This can lead to missing or inconsistent data between the Sitecore instance and the file system. References:

Templates are the basic building blocks of Sitecore. They define the data structures that you use to create items and content in Sitecore. Templates consist of sections and fields that specify the type and format of the data that can be stored in an item. Templates also define the standard values, presentation details, and inheritance relationships of items. Templates allow you to create consistent and reusable data structures that can be applied to multiple items and content types. References: Sitecore 10.0 Developer Documentation - Templates

Standard values on data templates are used to define default field values, default settings, and insert options for a data template1. They appear in the content tree as a child item of the data template called __Standard Values1. When a new item is created from the template, it inherits the standard values for its fields. If the value of a field is NULL, the item contains the standard value for that field as defined in the data template2. This way, standard values provide the default values for fields when a new item is created from the template and a fallback value when fields are left NULL2. References:

Insert options are a way of controlling the types of items that users can create under existing items. By default, insert options are inherited from the standard values of the data template of the parent item. However, sometimes it may be necessary to override the insert options for a specific item, for example, to allow more flexibility or to enforce a certain structure. In that case, setting the insert options on the specific item will add those options to the list of effective insert options, along with the ones inherited from the standard values. This way, Content Authors can insert items under the specific item in addition to what is included with the item’s standard values. Note that setting the insert options on the specific item will not replace the inherited ones, unless the insert options are empty, in which case the effective insert options will be empty as well. References:

Field editor buttons are custom experience editor buttons that allow content authors to edit multiple fields of an item in a pop-up window. This is useful for complex fields that are not easily editable in the experience editor, such as multilist fields, checkbox fields, or image fields. Field editor buttons can also be configured to edit the fields of the data source item of a rendering, rather than the page item. Field editor buttons can improve the content authoring experience by providing a convenient and consistent way to edit fields in the experience editor. References:
