Authenticated

Indicates if you are logged in to the CMS Explorer. See Also:

CacheInterval

Sets the amount of time the server control’s data is cached.
The default is 0 (zero). This is the amount of time, in seconds, a control’s data is cached. For example, if you want to cache the data for five minutes, set this property to 300 (three hundred). See Also: Caching with Server Controls

ContentIds

A comma delimited list of content block IDs.

See Also: : Using the ContentID Property to Display a Content List

DefaultContentID

Set content ID value. Once set, content IDs are generated from the MetaTag value for this content.

See Also: : MetaTag

Using Metadata to Display an Associated Content List

DisplayXslt

Determines how information on the page is displayed.

None - databind only

ecmNavigation - lists the title of each content block See Also: Using the Collection Server Control

ecmTeaser - lists the title of each content block plus the content summary

See Also: Using the Collection Server Control

ecmUnOrderedList - sorts the list in no particular order. Shows the title and content summary

Path to Custom Xslt - Enter the path to an XSLT that determines the display of the page

Warning! If you specify an external file, it is strongly recommended that you do not store this file in your site's Workarea folder. If you store this file in the Workarea folder, the file will be lost when you upgrade.

Warning! If you enter a valid EkML file at the MarkupLanguage property, the Displayxslt property value is ignored.

DoInitFill

By default, Fill occurs during the Page_Init event. Set to false if you want to postpone the fill-action until later. In this case, FIll is automatically called during the Page Render event.

You might do this if you need to set or change a property on the control in codebehind and have it render with your changes shown.

DynamicParameter

Uses the QueryString parameter to read a content ID dynamically.

None - Use Default - use the default content ID list.

ID - reads a content block’s ID dynamically.

ekfrm - reads a form block’s ID dynamically.

Set this property to True if you want the following information for each content in the list.

Returns Content View Count, Content Rating, Content Rating Average.

Create your own XSLT styles to display this data.

Warning! This property only provides reliable data when the Business Analytics Feature is on. Enabling the Business Analytics Feature.

GetHtml

Set to True if you want to retrieve and display content (html body) for all content blocks in the list summary. For example, to display content inside a web server control such as a GridView.

True = Get and display HTML for each content block in the list summary

False = Do not get and display HTML.

Hide

Used to hide output of the content list in design time and run time.

True = Hide results

False = show results

IncludeIcons

Choose whether to display icons next to the content list’s links.

Warning! This property only works when ecmSummary or ecmTeaser are used in the DisplayXslt property. When the [$ImageIcon] variable is used in an EkML file and that file is assigned to the MarkupLanguage property, this property acts as True.

Language

Set a language for viewing the list summary. This property shows results in design-time (in Visual Studio) and at run-time (in a browser).

LinkTarget

Defines the way a link acts when a link is clicked.

_blank - This target causes the link to always be loaded in a new blank window. This window is not named.

_self - This target causes the link to always load in the same window the anchor was clicked in. This is useful for overriding a globally assigned base target.

_parent - This target makes the link load in the immediate frameset parent of the document. This defaults to acting like “_self” if the document has no parent.

_top - This target makes the link load in the full body of the window. This defaults to acting like “_self” if the document is already at the top. It is useful for breaking out of an arbitrarily deep frame nesting.

MarkupLanguage

Identify the template markup file that controls the display of the content list. For example, mycontentlistmarkup.ekml.

If the *.ekml file is located in the same folder as the Web form containing the server control, just enter its name. If the file is in another folder, enter the path relative to site root. For example, ..\workarea\customfiles
\markup\mycontentlistmarkup.ekml.

See Also: Controlling Output with Ektron Markup Language and contentlist.ekml

Note: If you enter a valid EkML file, the DisplayXslt property value is ignored. If the EkML file contains the [$ImageIcon] variable, the IncludeIcons property acts as True.

MetaTag

Specify a Metadata definition whose type is Content Selector. When you do, the associated list of content items will appear where you place the server control.

Warning! You cannot insert other metadata types.

This works with the DefaultContentID property.

See Also: : DefaultContentIDUsing Metadata to Display an Associated Content List

For more information about using metadata to assign a list of related content to a content item, see Related Content Metadata.

OrderByDirection

Determines which direction to sort content determined by the OrderBy property.

ascending - items are arranged A, B, C or 1,2,3.

descending - items are arranged. Z,Y,X or 3,2,1.

If sorting by date, descending puts the most recent first.

When ascending is selected and the OrderBy property is set to OrderOfTheIds, the order of the IDs are preserved. When set to descending, the order is reversed.

Datatype:
Ektron.Cms.Controls.CmsWebService.
ContentListOrderByDirection

OrderBy

Sort the list by one of these values:

Title - the order of the content’s title.

DateModified - the last date the content was modified.

DateCreated - the date the content was created.

LastEditorFname - the last editor’s first name.

LastEditorLname - the last editor’s last name.

OrderOfTheIds - preserves the content ID order based on the list in the ContentIds property.

ContentRatingAverage - Business Analytics Content Rating

ContentViewCount - Business Analytics Content Views

Datatype:
Ektron.Cms.Controls.CmsWebservices.
ContentListOrderBy

(must be one of the values)

Random

Set to True if you want to randomly display one content block link from the content list. The content changes each time a user views the page.

True - randomly display one content block in the specified folder.

False - display the content list normally.

Note: If you use a custom XSLT or EkML file, the type of content displayed can be manipulated. For example, if you use an EkML file that has the [$Html] variable in it, the actual content is displayed instead of a link. See Also: Controlling Output with Ektron Markup Language and [$Html]

SuppressWrapperTags

This property is set to false because Ajax uses <div> tags to rewrite the region around the tag. You cannot change the value to true.
