View As Published on author directly without editor

[bhartm]

Hello, is it possible to access the url of "view as published" directly on the author without going through the page editor and get the same render?

When we access it directly currently for some pages the output and page layout is different (contains some gray layout boxes like in the editor).

Is it maybe a header that needs to be set?

Thanks!

Hey @bhartm 

We don't have any OOB link to see the page directly on view as published but there are various ways of doing this.

If your project has a requirement to have this functionality then it can be achieved via overlaying as mentioned by @Bhuwan_B and this needs to be done in codebase but if you need a temporary solution we have multiple ways:

1. You can go to /system/console/configMgr and search for Day CQ WCM Filter configuration and set the wcm mode as disabled which makes your author behave as publisher by default.
2. You can use a few browser plugins such as https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/aem-explorer/ccmaglfddhhajghfpiifkjkikabckohn which can ease your navigation to different AEM consoles.

Hope this helps!!
