[opencms-dev] Selective display of Structured Content

[Steve Bryan]

Hi Stephane

The proper way here is to create your own collector.

You can manually add edit links, example code below - but this is not part
of the OpenCms API and may well break for future versions of OpenCms - I
doubt the developers would like it! I would at least encapsulate this in a
single function so you can easily change it in future.


<%

// sPath = the path of the XML object
// sThisResourceName = the path of this page (ie the page with the list)

// Edit link
String sLink = "/system/workplace/editors/editor.jsp";
sLink += "?resource=" + sMetadataPath;
sLink += "&backlink=" + sThisResourceName;
sLink += "&directedit=true&redirect=true";		
pageContext.setAttribute("Link", sLink);

%>

<c:out value="${Title}" />
<a href="<cms:link><c:out value='${Link}' /></cms:link>">Edit</a>
<br />

Hi,

I have structured content for "stories" on my site. I have a field in the
xml for the "type" of story. I want to use contentload to pull all the
stories in of a certain type (or types), but when I use the code below I get
a bunch of "direct edit" images/code on my page for items I chose not to
show. Is there ANY way (outside of building my own collector) to get this to
work properly?

Is there a way I can remove items from a I_CmsXmlContentcontainer?
Is there a way I can manually put the "direct edit" buttons in if I set the
contentload value for editable to "false"?

<%
CmsJspActionElement cms = new CmsJspActionElement(pageContext, request,
response);
CmsJspXmlContentBean cmsXmlBean = new CmsJspXmlContentBean(pageContext,
request, response);

                I_CmsXmlContentContainer container =
cmsXmlBean.contentload("allInFolderDateReleasedDesc",
cms.getRequestContext().getFolderUri() + "story_%(number).html|story",
cms.getRequestContext().getLocale(), true);

while(container.hasMoreContent()) {
                if (cmsXmlBean.contentshow(container, "Type").equals("1")) {
                                out.print(cmsXmlBean.contentshow(container,
"Title"));
                }
}
%>

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
