In Website Settings, Product Groups have the option to specify layouts but do these layouts need to be parsed in Designer Launch?
For instance, if “featured” is entered into the Group Layouts field, where do we create the “featured” layout and does it need to be parsed?
Thanks!
Unfortunately, product group layouts do not have a Designer Launch section for parsing - not in Base2 anyways. Base3 has this implemented quite nicely 
You’ll need some help from Vin65 if you want to add a custom product group because they are CFM files that used the parsed version of the designer launch tags (<v65:product:addToCart></v65:addToCart> is <cf_product_addToCart> when parsed), and we don’t have that permission as outsiders to upload those.

Hi Jared,
Thank you for the reply!
All we’re looking to do here is add the product teaser to the layout. When we look at the rendered HTML, we can see open and close comment tags for this product tag. How can we activate the product teaser for this product group?

Thanks again for your help,

Unfortunately there’s no switch to turn tags on or off - you have to create a layout with all the markup.
Vin65 lists all the tags you can use in product group layout here - https://documentation.vin65.com/Designer-Launch/Products-V3/Product-Group
Keeping in mind the tags that can be used, plus the code for the parsed versions of the tags, you’ll want to email support a file called ‘featured.cfm’ that has the following content so they can upload it for you.
<cfoutput> <cf_product_photo> <cf_product_title> <cf_product_subtitle> <cf_product_teaser> <cf_product_actionMessage> <cf_product_reviewStats> <cf_product_addToCart> </cfoutput>
Hi there Jared,
Thanks for your instruction on this topic. We’ve filed a support ticket (#70403) and hopefully we’ll have this new layout available shortly.
Cheers,
