To change a content slot that displays top sellers to render a specific content asset, which two actions are necessary?

To modify a content slot that displays top sellers to render a specific content asset, changing the rendering template in the slot configuration is a key action. The rendering template is responsible for defining how the content within the slot is presented, making it crucial to update it to reflect the new content asset you wish to display.

By updating the rendering template, you can specify the new format and visual representation for the content asset intended to replace the existing top sellers display. This method is efficient and allows for the smooth transition to showcasing different content without needing to delete or recreate content slots entirely.

Altering the default setting or the content type would not specifically address the need to change what the slot renders to a specific asset. Deleting and recreating the content slot is also an unnecessarily complex approach when simply altering the rendering template will achieve the desired outcome effectively.
