[opencms-dev] understanding Opencms 9.5.0 properties of folders vs. other items

[Paul-Inge Flakstad]

Hi Chris,

The complete set of properties applies to all resources in OpenCms. It's all about "views" - how the set of properties is presented to you. 

OpenCms splits the complete set of properties into subsets, and shows them to you like that: 

 * "Basic properties" = the "most commonly edited" properties
 * "Complete properties" = all properties
 * "Used / unused properties" = differentiates between properties with/without values

The "individual/shared" thing is just an attribute of a single property value. (It has to do with siblings, I think - whether or not that value should be shared between them or not. And since folders can't have siblings, they don't have the individual/shared stuff.)

HTH :)

Cheers,
Paul

Subject: [opencms-dev] understanding Opencms 9.5.0 properties of folders vs. other items

I found while studying properties of various items in the Opencms 9.5.0 Demosite (overview), that structured content (like index.html) have "indivual properties" and "shared properties" and they inherit these from folders and the folders have"Basic properties" and "Complete properties".

Can somebody explain the idea behind that?
