[opencms-dev] function detail page

Tue Aug 18 09:48:17 CEST 2026

Hi Laurent,

your workaround was the best way. You may also work with permissions to 
allow only certain users to add the function to a page instead of 
excluding it from search.

The mechanism with container.info will not work for nested containers. I 
assume your maincontainer is a nested one. So I'd suggest to view the 
function detail page just as a kind of "named page" that you can link to 
by the name.

Best, Daniel.
