Fix Missing Catalogs Tab in Optimizely Commerce

Problem

After installing Optimizely Commerce, the Catalogs tab is missing from the CMS Assets Pane, despite:

• EPiServer.Commerce.UI package being installed
• User having CommerceAdmins role
• Commerce database configured properly
• All Commerce features working

Solution

Reset the UI views (takes 30 seconds):

1. Go to /episerver/cms
2. Click Settings icon (⚙️) in top-right
3. Find Display Options or View Settings
4. Click Reset the views
5. Click Save
6. Refresh browser (F5)

Result: Catalogs tab appears immediately.

Why This Works

When Commerce is installed after CMS:

• CMS caches UI configuration
• Commerce adds new tabs/gadgets
• Cache doesn't auto-refresh
• Resetting clears cache and reloads all available UI components

When This Happens

• Installing Commerce after CMS setup
• Upgrading Commerce packages
• Adding custom UI modules
