Properties
View SourceAllowedTemplates
Gets or Sets a list of Templates which are allowed for the ContentType TODO: This should be ignored from cloning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- but to do that we have to implement callback hacks, this needs to be fixed in v8, we should not store direct entity
Declaration
[DataMember]
public IEnumerable<ITemplate> AllowedTemplates { get; set; }
Property Value
Type | Description |
---|---|
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<ITemplate> |
DefaultTemplate
Gets or sets the alias of the default Template. TODO: This should be ignored from cloning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- but to do that we have to implement callback hacks, this needs to be fixed in v8, we should not store direct entity

[IgnoreDataMember]
public ITemplate DefaultTemplate { get; }
Property Value

ITemplate |
HistoryCleanup
Declaration
public HistoryCleanup HistoryCleanup { get; set; }

HistoryCleanup |
SupportsPublishing
Gets a value indicating whether the content type supports publishing.
Declaration
public override bool SupportsPublishing { get; }
Property Value
Type | Description |
---|---|
System.Boolean |
Remarks
A publishing content type supports draft and published values for properties. It is possible to retrieve either the draft (default) or published value of a property. Setting the value always sets the draft value, which then needs to be published.
A non-publishing content type only supports one value for properties. Getting the draft or published value of a property returns the same thing, and publishing a value property has no effect.
