Universal Containers builds a Community with public access to Knowledge Articles and Q&A. The developer builds a Visualforce page that shows Known Issues on their products. The developer uses a custom Object to Store Known Issues with an org-wide default sharing setting to Public Read/Write. unauthenticated users receive an error message when they try to load the page. What should the Salesforce Admin do to troubleshoot this issue?


A. Enable "Public can access the community" checkbox under General Settings in Community Builder.


B. Add the Guest User profile to the members in Community Management.


C. Go to the Guest User profile and give to the Visualforce page.


D. Change the org-wide default sharing to Public Full Access.





C.
  Go to the Guest User profile and give to the Visualforce page.

Explanation:

Problem Analysis:
The community has public access, meaning unauthenticated (Guest) users should be able to view the Visualforce page.
The error occurs because the Guest User profile lacks permissions to access the Visualforce page or the custom object storing Known Issues.
Even if the org-wide default (OWD) sharing is Public Read/Write, the Guest User profile still needs explicit object, field, and Visualforce page access.

Why the Other Options Are Incorrect:
A. "Enable 'Public can access the community'" – This setting is already enabled since the community allows public access to Knowledge & Q&A. The issue is not community-wide access but Guest User permissions.
B. "Add the Guest User profile to the members in Community Management" – The Guest User is automatically included in public communities; manually adding it is unnecessary.
D. "Change the org-wide default sharing to Public Full Access" – OWD is already Public Read/Write, which is sufficient. The issue is profile-level access, not sharing settings.

Correct Solution (Option C):

The Guest User profile must have:
"Enabled" permission for the Visualforce page (Setup → Profiles → Guest User → Enabled Visualforce Access).
Read access to the custom object and its fields (Object Settings → Read, Field-Level Security).
Without these permissions, unauthenticated users will receive an "Insufficient Privileges" error.

Sharing Settings for Public Communities

Final Note: Always verify Guest User profile permissions when troubleshooting public community access issues! ✅

A Community Admin is planning to add users and wants to send a welcome email for the community. Which three checks must the Community Admin perform?Choose 3 answers


A. Make sure the community is in Active status.


B. Are sure the community is in Published status.


C. Set the community in preview status to review before changing it to Active status.


D. Make sure the users have their profiles established in the community.


E. Set the email check box option at the community level.





A.
  Make sure the community is in Active status.

D.
  Make sure the users have their profiles established in the community.

E.
  Set the email check box option at the community level.

Explanation:

A. Active status: The community must be Active for users to log in and receive welcome emails. Inactive or Preview communities don’t allow user access or email delivery.
D. User profiles: Users need profiles (e.g., Customer Community) enabled for the community to be added and receive emails.
E. Email checkbox: The “Send Welcome Email” option in Experience Workspaces > Administration > Preferences must be enabled to send welcome emails.

Why Not Others?
B. Published status: Incorrect; “Published” is not a Salesforce community status (Active, Preview, or Inactive are valid).
C. Preview status: Preview is for testing, not required for adding users or sending emails.

Study Tip:
Practice configuring communities in a Trailhead Playground, focusing on user profiles and email settings. Check the Salesforce Experience Cloud Consultant Exam Guide for more details.

What two things should the Salesforce Admin do to achieve this? Universal Containers builds a Community on the Napili template. They need to use a survey tool to collect feedback from members.


A. Find and install a Visualforce survey app from the AppExchange.


B. Create a new page, add the standard survey components, and publish.


C. Build custom Lightning survey components for the template.


D. Find and install a Lightning survey app from the AppExchange.





B.
  Create a new page, add the standard survey components, and publish.

D.
  Find and install a Lightning survey app from the AppExchange.

Explanation:

Universal Containers is using the Napili template, which is a Lightning-based template. That means they benefit from standard Lightning components and can extend functionality using Lightning-based solutions.

💡 Why B is correct:
Salesforce provides native Lightning Survey components which can be added directly to community pages.
Admins can create a community page and drop in survey components such as or use drag-and-drop in Experience Builder.
Publishing makes the survey visible to community members.
Requires that Salesforce Surveys are enabled and properly permissioned (via Profiles or Permission Sets).

🔗 Reference: Use Surveys in Experience Cloud Sites

💡 Why D is correct:
Admins can explore the AppExchange for Lightning-compatible survey tools that integrate cleanly with the Napili template.
These apps are built with Lightning components and typically offer configuration via clicks, not code.
Examples include GetFeedback, SurveyMonkey for Salesforce, or FormAssembly — all with Lightning-native support.
This ensures full UI compatibility with the Napili template and avoids complex development.

🔗 Reference: Find Lightning-ready apps on AppExchange

Why A and C are incorrect:
A. Visualforce survey app
Visualforce pages don't integrate well with Lightning templates like Napili. Styling, behavior, and security can clash.
C. Custom Lightning survey components
While technically feasible, it adds complexity. Salesforce provides native survey tools and AppExchange apps which are simpler and scalable.

A Salesforce ISV partner is creating a Lightning Bolt Solution for a healthcare use case.
What should the Community Cloud consultant use to distribute the Lightning Bolt solution?


A. Managed Package


B. Metadata API


C. Change Set


D. Unmanaged Package





A.
  Managed Package

Explanation:

Lightning Bolt Solutions are essentially pre-built Experience Cloud sites (formerly Community Cloud sites) that can include custom pages, components, themes, business logic, and integrations. They are designed for reuse and distribution to multiple customers.
Managed Packages are the standard and recommended way for Salesforce ISV (Independent Software Vendor) partners to distribute their applications, components, and solutions to multiple customers.
Intellectual Property Protection: Managed packages protect the intellectual property of the ISV because the code (Apex, Visualforce, Lightning components) is obfuscated and cannot be directly viewed or modified by the subscriber.
Upgrades: Managed packages allow the ISV to push upgrades to their customers' orgs, ensuring that customers always have the latest features and bug fixes. This is critical for ongoing maintenance and enhancement of a product.
AppExchange: Managed packages are the primary mechanism for listing and distributing solutions on the Salesforce AppExchange.
Licensing: Managed packages also support licensing models, which are essential for ISVs selling their solutions.

Why other options are incorrect:

B. Metadata API: The Metadata API is a programmatic interface used by developers to retrieve, deploy, create, update, or delete customization information, such as custom object definitions and page layouts. While it's fundamental for moving metadata, it's a tool used for development and deployment, not the distribution mechanism for a product like a Lightning Bolt solution to multiple customers as an ISV. An ISV wouldn't tell a customer, "Here, use the Metadata API to deploy our solution."
C. Change Set: Change Sets are used to migrate customizations from one Salesforce org to another within the same production environment or related sandboxes. They are designed for internal development and deployment processes, not for distributing solutions to external customers. They lack the IP protection, upgrade capabilities, and licensing features required by an ISV.
D. Unmanaged Package: Unmanaged packages are used for distributing open-source projects or templates where the developer wants the recipient to be able to modify the components. There's no intellectual property protection, no upgrade path, and they are not suitable for commercial ISV products like a Lightning Bolt Solution that needs to be maintained and upgraded for customers.

Therefore, for an ISV partner distributing a commercial or reusable solution like a Lightning Bolt, a Managed Package is the only appropriate choice.

Universal Containers built a Customer Community on the Customer Service (Napili) Template. They want the global search box to return 10 results instead of 5.
Where should the Salesforce Admin set the number of search results to 10?


A. In the Community Management search page.


B. In the Community Builder site global settings page.


C. In the Community Management preferences page.


D. In the Community Builder global search component properties





D.
  In the Community Builder global search component properties

Explanation:

Universal Containers is using the Customer Service (Napili) Template, which is a Lightning template in Experience Cloud (formerly Community Cloud). In Lightning-based communities, UI configurations like the number of search results displayed are typically controlled in Community Builder, not in Community Management.

Let’s break down each option:

🔹 A. In the Community Management search page – ❌ Incorrect
The Community Management console is a legacy tool used primarily with Visualforce-based communities.
It does not control UI components like the number of global search results in Lightning templates.

🔹 B. In the Community Builder site global settings page – ❌ Incorrect
The global settings in Community Builder manage things like theme, branding, and languages, but not the behavior of individual components like search.

🔹 C. In the Community Management preferences page – ❌ Incorrect
Again, this is part of the legacy Community Management console and does not apply to the Lightning-based Napili template.
It cannot control UI behavior such as search result limits.

🔹 D. In the Community Builder global search component properties – ✅ Correct
In Community Builder, each component has its own set of configurable properties.
You can click the Global Search component, and in the right-hand panel, set the maximum number of results to display.
This is the correct and intended way to adjust the number of results shown in the search box for Lightning-based communities like Napili.

📘 Reference:
Salesforce Help: Customize Search Results in Experience Builder

Summary:
To increase the number of global search results shown in a Napili (Customer Service) template, the Salesforce Admin should configure it directly:
🔹 In the Global Search component properties inside Community Builder.

What are three ways you can maximize engagement within your Salesforce Community?


A. Ompany Branding and a Custom Domain


B. Reputation Points & Levels


C. Frequent Promotions


D. Establish Etiquette Rules


E. Measure Community Success





B.
  Reputation Points & Levels

D.
  Establish Etiquette Rules

E.
  Measure Community Success

Explanation:

1. Reputation Points & Levels (B)
Why? Gamification (reputation points, badges, and levels) encourages users to participate by rewarding contributions (e.g., answering questions, posting helpful content).
How? Configure Reputation Levels in Community Workspaces → Rewards & Recognition.
Reference:
Set Up Reputation Points in Communities

2. Establish Etiquette Rules (D)
Why? Clear guidelines ensure respectful and productive discussions, reducing spam and conflicts.
How? Post Community Guidelines in a visible location (e.g., a pinned Knowledge Article or a Welcome message).
Reference:
Best Practices for Community Engagement

3. Measure Community Success (E)
Why? Tracking metrics (logins, discussions, resolved cases) helps identify engagement trends and areas for improvement.
How? Use Community Analytics (Reports & Dashboards) or Einstein Analytics for Communities.
Reference:
Analyze Community Performance

Why the Other Options Are Less Relevant:
A. Company Branding & Custom Domain → Important for professionalism but doesn’t directly drive engagement.
C. Frequent Promotions → Can help temporarily but isn’t a sustainable engagement strategy.

Key Takeaway:
Maximizing engagement requires incentives (B), structure (D), and data-driven improvements (E).

Universal Containers is leveraging Salesforce Content and needs to rnake it available to their Community users (Customers, Partners, and Employees). Which users will be able to view Salesforce Content based on their license?


A. Users with the Customer Community Login license.


B. Users with the High-Volume Customer Portal license.


C. Users with the Customer Community license.


D. Users with the Customer Community Plus license.





D.
  Users with the Customer Community Plus license.

Explanation:

Salesforce Content (now called Salesforce Files or Content Management) allows users to store, share, and manage files. In Experience Cloud, the ability to access Salesforce Content depends on the user’s license type. Let’s evaluate each option:

A. Customer Community Login license: Incorrect. This license (also known as Customer Community Login) is a high-volume license for external users with limited access. It does not include access to Salesforce Content, as it’s designed for basic community interactions like case management or self-service.

B. High-Volume Customer Portal license: Incorrect. This is an outdated license type (pre-dating Experience Cloud) and not relevant to modern Experience Cloud licenses. It’s not listed in current Salesforce documentation for accessing Content.

C. Customer Community license: Incorrect. The Customer Community license is a lightweight license for external users, typically for self-service portals. It does not provide access to Salesforce Content, as it restricts users to basic features like records and self-service.

D. Customer Community Plus license: Correct. The Customer Community Plus license (also called Customer Community Plus Login) grants external users access to Salesforce Content, in addition to other features like read/write access to records, reports, and dashboards. This license is designed for more robust community interactions, including content management. Reference: Salesforce Help - Content in Experience Cloud and License Types for Communities.

Additional Notes
Employee Licenses: While the question doesn’t list internal licenses (e.g., Salesforce or Salesforce Platform licenses), employees with these licenses can also access Salesforce Content if their profiles/permissions allow it.
Partner Community License: Partners with the Partner Community license can also access Salesforce Content, similar to Customer Community Plus users, but this isn’t an option in the question.
Key Exam Tip: For the Experience Cloud Consultant exam, know the differences between license types (Customer Community, Customer Community Plus, Partner Community) and their access to features like Salesforce Content, reports, and sharing rules. Use Trailhead or a Developer Org to explore license capabilities.

Universal Containers is rapidly expanding its partner network across Latin America and Europe and has received feedback that partner engagement has been hampered by the lack of resources in the partners native languages. Which three individual steps should a Community Cloud consultant take to provide a better experience for these international partners? Choose 3 answers Select one or more of the following:


A. Enable multiple languages in the Knowledge language settings


B. Set up Translation Workbench and ensure translators are assigned


C. Use the language selector component to let users select their preferred language


D. Embed a link to Google Translate all pages


E. Set up custom URLs to route users from country domains to the correct Community pages





A.
  Enable multiple languages in the Knowledge language settings

B.
  Set up Translation Workbench and ensure translators are assigned

C.
  Use the language selector component to let users select their preferred language

Explanation:

Universal Containers needs to improve international partner engagement by providing content and UI support in multiple languages within their Experience Cloud site. Here’s how each of the selected solutions plays into the Experience Cloud localization strategy:

A. Enable multiple languages in the Knowledge language settings
Salesforce Knowledge articles can be localized for multiple languages.
Enabling these languages ensures partners can view help content and documentation in their native language.
Admins must configure Knowledge settings under Setup → Knowledge Settings → Language Settings.
🔗 Reference: Enable Language Settings for Knowledge

B. Set up Translation Workbench and ensure translators are assigned
Translation Workbench allows you to manage UI and metadata translations (labels, picklists, error messages, etc.).
You can assign translators for different languages, making localization manageable and accurate.
Best practice is to coordinate with native speakers or professional translation teams.
🔗 Reference: Translation Workbench Overview

C. Use the language selector component to let users select their preferred language
The Language Selector component is a built-in Experience Builder element.
Lets community users manually switch to their preferred language.
Improves usability and empowers users to tailor their experience.
🔗 Reference: Add a Language Selector to Your Site

Why D and E are incorrect or suboptimal
D. Embed a link to Google Translate all pages
Not secure or scalable; violates Salesforce UI best practices and can lead to inconsistent translation quality
E. Set up custom URLs to route users from country domains
This adds unnecessary complexity. Experience Cloud automatically supports language personalization with login IP/location or user profile settings

Northern Trail Outfitters wants to launch their Community with the following requirements: Enable ions

• Use Reputation for gamification
• View the Trending Articles
• Optimized fo mobile.

Which two requirements will the Salesforce Admin be able to accomplish with the Koa template?
Choose 2 answers


A. Use Reputation for gamification


B. View the Trending Articles


C. Enable ions


D. Optimized for mobile





A.
  Use Reputation for gamification

B.
  View the Trending Articles

Explanation:

The Koa template is an older, more basic Salesforce Experience Cloud template. While it offered foundational community features, it had limitations compared to newer templates like Customer Service or Build Your Own (Aura/LWR).

Let's evaluate the requirements against the Koa template's capabilities:

A. Use Reputation for gamification: The Koa template, being an Aura-based template, does support Reputation. Salesforce's native gamification features, including reputation levels, badges, and leaderboards, are generally available across Aura-based Experience Cloud templates. The Reputation component can be added to pages in Experience Builder.
Reference: Salesforce documentation on "Gamification" and "Reputation." Older Aura templates like Koa support these features.

B. View the Trending Articles: The Koa template is known for its focus on self-service and knowledge. It includes components and capabilities to display articles, and indeed, "Trending Articles" is a standard component that can be used to showcase popular knowledge articles.
Reference: Salesforce documentation confirming Koa's support for knowledge articles and related components like "Trending Articles by Topic."

C. Enable ions: "Ions" is not a standard, native Salesforce Experience Cloud feature or template capability. It refers to an external survey/interactive content platform (formerly called "Ion Interactive"). While you could potentially integrate an external tool like Ion into a Koa-based community, the template itself does not "enable ions" as an out-of-the-box feature. This would typically require custom integration, not a simple enabling.

D. Optimized for mobile: While all Salesforce Experience Cloud templates aim to be responsive, the Koa template specifically was promoted as being optimized for mobile devices due to its more text-based and straightforward layout, making it load efficiently on smaller screens.

Conclusion:
Based on the capabilities of the Koa template:
The two requirements the Salesforce Admin will be able to accomplish with the Koa template are:

A. Use Reputation for gamification
B. View the Trending Articles

Note: The Koa and Kokua templates are in a phased retirement, and Salesforce generally recommends migrating to newer templates for new communities or updating existing ones. However, the question specifically asks what can be accomplished with the Koa template.

Universal Containers has built Visualforce pages for the bid process with integration to their on-premise system, and they use these pages internally. Universal Containers wants to launch a Community and reuse these pages for their contractors and vendors.
Community members should be able to:
- Search and find articles on standard operating procedures.
- Submit invoices and receive status updates.
- Submit bids and receive updates.
How should the Salesforce Admin build this Community?


A. Build a community in the external website and integrate with Salesforce for bid processes and other information.


B. Provide access to the internal Salesforce org and limit access by profiles.


C. Select the Site.com Template with the Navigation menu for invoices and bid processes.


D. Use the Salesforce Tabs + Visualforce template and add the tabs for different requirements.





D.
  Use the Salesforce Tabs + Visualforce template and add the tabs for different requirements.

Explanation:

Why Option D is Correct?

Reuse Existing Visualforce Pages
Universal Containers already has custom Visualforce pages for bid processes.
The Salesforce Tabs + Visualforce template allows seamless integration of these pages into the community.

Supports All Required Functions
Search & Find Articles: Enable Knowledge in the community for SOP articles.
Submit Invoices & Bids: Use Visualforce tabs for invoice submission and bid processes.
Status Updates: Leverage Chatter or custom objects for notifications.

Secure & Scalable
Profiles & Permission Sets can restrict access as needed.
Sharing Settings ensure contractors/vendors only see permitted data.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect?
A. Build an external website & integrate with Salesforce → Overly complex; doesn’t leverage native Community Cloud features.
B. Provide internal org access → Security risk; violates Salesforce best practices for external users.
C. Site.com Template → Doesn’t support Visualforce pages natively; less flexible for custom bid processes.

Implementation Steps:
Template Selection: Choose "Salesforce Tabs + Visualforce" in Community Builder.
Add Tabs:
Knowledge Tab → For SOP articles.
Custom Visualforce Tabs → For bid submission and invoice tracking.

Configure Access:
Assign Permission Sets to contractors/vendors.
Set OWD Sharing for custom objects (e.g., Bid__c).

Enable Features:
Activate Knowledge and Chatter for updates.

As part of its recent efforts to improve brand recognition, Universal Containers had upgraded all of its Communities to use Lightning templates. The next step will be to unify the branding across all of these Communities. What is an efficient way to accomplish this?
Select one or more of the following:


A. Use a shared Bootstrap CSS file in all of the Communities


B. Ensure that all Communities are only using standard Lighting Components


C. Create a standard theme that is used in all of the Communities


D. Ensure that all Community managers use the same CSS standards in all pages





C.
  Create a standard theme that is used in all of the Communities

Explanation:

Universal Containers wants to unify branding across all its Salesforce Experience Cloud communities after upgrading to Lightning templates. The goal is to achieve consistent branding efficiently. Let’s evaluate each option to determine the most effective approach.

A. Use a shared Bootstrap CSS file in all of the Communities: Incorrect. Salesforce Experience Cloud uses Lightning Web Components (LWC) and its own styling framework (Salesforce Lightning Design System, SLDS). Bootstrap CSS is not natively supported and would require custom development, which is inefficient and not recommended for maintaining consistent branding in Lightning templates. Custom CSS can be applied, but a shared Bootstrap file is not a standard or efficient approach.

B. Ensure that all Communities are only using standard Lightning Components: Incorrect. While using standard Lightning Components ensures consistency in functionality and compatibility, it does not directly address branding (e.g., colors, logos, fonts). Components handle functionality, not visual styling, so this approach doesn’t efficiently unify branding across communities.

C. Create a standard theme that is used in all of the Communities: Correct. The most efficient way to unify branding across multiple Experience Cloud communities is to create a standard theme in Experience Builder. Themes allow you to define consistent branding elements like colors, fonts, logos, and styles that can be applied across all communities. You can create a theme once and apply it to multiple communities or export/import theme settings, ensuring consistency with minimal effort.

D. Ensure that all Community managers use the same CSS standards in all pages: Incorrect. Manually enforcing CSS standards across pages by community managers is inefficient and error-prone. It requires extensive coordination and custom development, whereas using a standard theme (option C) centralizes branding control and reduces manual effort.

Why Option C?
Using a standard theme in Experience Builder is the most efficient way to unify branding. Themes allow centralized control over visual elements (e.g., colors, fonts, logos) and can be applied consistently across multiple communities. This approach minimizes manual effort, ensures scalability, and aligns with Salesforce’s best practices for Experience Cloud.

Exam Tip:
For the Salesforce Experience Cloud Consultant exam, focus on Templates and Themes (10% of the exam). Understand how to use Experience Builder to manage themes for consistent branding. Practice creating and applying themes in a Trailhead Playground to grasp their impact on community appearance.
