insite:slotlist

Streams additional widgets allowing content contributors to edit multivalued asset reference fields.

Syntax

<insite:slotlist 
      [tname="Template name"]
      [slotname="name of slot"]
      [variant="regular expression"]
      [field="the name of the edited asset reference field"]
      [assetid="the id of the edited asset"]
      [assettype="the type of the edited asset"]
      [context="context override"]
      [style="pagelet|element|embedded"]
      [ttype="Template|CSElement"]
      [clegal="comma-separated list of allowed types and subtypes"]
      [emptytext="Text displayed when the slot is empty"]
      [roles="List of roles allowed to edit this slot"]
      [title="overrides the default slot title"]
	  [buttons="buttons"]
      [countervar="name of variable containing current list index"]>
  [<insite:calltemplate ... />
  <insite:calltemplate ... />
  ...]
</insite:slotlist>

Parameters

countervar

Designates a variable containing a 1-based index. This attribute is used when insite:slotlist is combined with nested insite:calltemplate tags and the asset references are rendered in an order which doesn't match the field ordering.

Alternatively, the index attribute of each nested insite:calltemplate tag can be used for the same purpose.

Description

insite:slotlist typically wraps an area rendering a multivalued asset reference field. It can be used:

• in conjunction with nested insite:calltemplate tags, allowing nested values to be edited in-context
• or on its own, without nested insite:calltemplate tags. This is particularly useful when field values are not directly editable on the web page. For instance, the multivalued field could contain a list of Image assets used to populate a javascript-based image gallery.

In editing mode, the tag generates a toolbar, displayed when the content contributor hovers over the wrapped area. This toolbar allows contributors to access a dedicated popup window showing all field values. In this popup, contributors can edit field values, but also add, remove and reorder them.

In any other rendering mode, this tag does not generate any markup.

Notes

• Nested insite:calltemplate tags inherit attribute values from the parent insite:slotlist tag.
• This tag is only applicable to asset reference fields. See insite:list for more details on editing multivalued fields containing other data types.

Example

The following example enables editing the multivalued relatedStories field of the asset determined by the c and cid variables:

<insite:slotlist field="relatedStories"<
  <ics:listloop listname="relatedStories"<
    <ics:listget 
      listname="relatedStories" 
      fieldname="value" 
      output="articleId" /<
    <%-- Note that the field attribute is inherited from the parent tag --%>
    <insite:calltemplate
      tname="Summary/SideBar"
      c="AVIArticle"
      cid='<%=ics.getvar("articleid")%>' /<
  </ics:listloop<
</insite:slotlist<
