How to achieve Iparsys like behavior in Editable templates ?

Avatar

Level 2

We are currently moving from static to editable templates, And We have thousands of Product Category and Product Detail pages. 
Static template version (Current Scenario) - In the Product Detail page we have a right section which is iparsys, Which inherits content from a category page (immediate Parent, Or Grand Parent Category). And each category will have a different content under right section. And we have n number of categories.
Editable Template Version - I have tried using XF, CF but the content would be same across the Product Detail pages, But i want the content to be different and should be inherited from the parent category page. 
To summarize it, Using Experience and Content Fragment i am able to achieve content reusability but not inheritance, Is there any way to achieve inherited content to my product detail pages, from category pages. And the solution should be simple so it can be easy for migration. 
We currently have one solution, Which is harder for content migration, looking for more efficient and more suggestions. Any worked out solution/suggestion would help.

Hi @iamsakareem 

 

You can still make iparsys work with editable templates, but it is NOT recommended by Adobe.

For your use case you can follow below approch and it works.
