FS_REFERENCE
Contents |
for example |
to the methods: TargetReference |
The new input component FS_REFERENCE is for holding any reference.
The type of referenced object is not defined directly via the input component: references to media (pictures and files), to page references (Site Store) and to every other Store can be selected and e.g. to folders.
The selection options for the editor can be limited to such an extent that only specific references can be selected, the selection of other references is prevented or a selection can only be made from certain Stores or folders. For example, the component can be configured so that the editor can select pictures and files, but not page references.
The input component shows a selected reference with release state, time and author of the last change. If a page or a page reference has been selected as reference, a combobox will be displayed additionally, which can be used for selecting a section of the respective page.
Access-API example use case
The exemplary implementation ReferenceEditorValueExample shows some simple examples of use for the reading, writing and creating access to the data object (ReferenceEditorValue) and its inner data container (TargetReference) of the input component by means of the FirstSpirit Access-API.
- Example of use: ReferenceEditorValueExample
- Data object: ReferenceEditorValue
- Container type: TargetReference
The input component FS_REFERENCE is also supported in FirstSpirit ContentCreator. For information about restrictions see Chapter Restrictions in ContentCreator. |

Parameter
The following table gives the parameters of the REFERENCE input component.
name
The attribute "name" is the variable name of an input component with which the the result object of the input component can be used in the templates - with the help of $CMS_VALUE()$ - or the content can be output.
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
name* | Yes | 3.1 | Designator | None |
allowEmpty
The "allowEmpty" parameter is used to specify whether a value has to be entered for an input value or not.
If allowEmpty="YES" input is not mandatory; however, it is if allowEmpty="NO".
Input components with allowEmpty="NO" are also called mandatory input components.
The default value for allowEmpty is YES.
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
allowEmpty | No | 3.0 | YesNo | YES |
convertEntities
The "convertEntities" attribute is used to convert special characters entered in the input components for output in HTML characters.
There are three forms:
- convertEntities="NONE" (standard)
- convertEntities="STANDARD"
- convertEntities="QUOTE"
With the NONE form, no conversion rules whatsoever are applied.
If STANDARD is given the conversion rules in the "convert" area of the selected conversion rule of the presentation channel are applied.
The form QUOTE explicitly includes STANDARD too. However, the "quote" area of the conversion rule is also applied.
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
convertEntities | No | 2.0 | ConvertEntity | NONE |
hFill
An input component is always displayed with a pre-defined width.
However, if the input component is to use the full available display width the parameter hFill must be given with the value YES .
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
hFill | No | 2.0 | YesNo | NO |
hidden
With the "hidden" parameter an input component can be hidden from the editor.
If hidden="YES" the input component is not visible for the editor, if hidden="NO" it is visible.
The default value for hidden is NO.
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
hidden | No | 4.0.44 | YesNo | NO |
imagePreview
The imagePreview parameter can be used to display an image preview of a picture in the input component.
No image preview is displayed as a default.
To allow image preview it is necessary to specify the value YES (...imagePreview="YES"...) .
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
imagePreview | No | 4.2 | YesNo | YES |
noBreak
The noBreak parameter can be used to suppress automatic line break after an input component.
The noBreak parameter must be given with value "YES" (noBreak="YES") to suppress the automatic line break.
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
noBreak | No | 2.0 | YesNo | NO |
preset
Using the preset attribute the handling of default values in an input component can defined (see also chapter Default values). If preset="default" is set, the fall-back value defined in the form is used. If this value in the form is changed later on, these changes will be affect all usages of this default value in the input components maintained by the editor, as long as a value will be set manually in the input component. This is the default setting. If preset="copy" is set, the value entered by the editor is copied directly into the input component. Subsequent changes to the default value in the form do not have any effect on the usages of this default value in the input components maintained by the editor.
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
preset | No | 4.0 | Preset | DEFAULT |
sections
The sections parameter can be used to influence or define the behavior of the reference selection for sections.
By default, sections can be selected in the input component in the case where a page from the Page Store, a page reference or a Global content page has been selected. This behavior corresponds to sections="YES".
By giving NO as the value for the parameter, the selection of a target section is prevented.
If ONLY is given, it is only possible to select sections from the current page.
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
sections | No | 4.2 | SectionMode | YES |
upload
The upload parameter can be used by the template developer to enable the editor to upload a medium via the input component.
The editor can either enter the picture in the media store dialog-controlled using the relevant button or directly add it to the input component using drag & drop.
The function is deactivated as a default; it is activated by specifying the parameter with the value YES (...upload="YES"...) .
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
upload | No | 4.2 | YesNo | NO |
useLanguages
The useLanguages parameter can be used to specify whether or not an input component is to store different or deviating values for different languages (multi-lingual maintenance).
If the parameter is not given, deviating values are stored for the different languages as a default.
If NO (...useLanguages="NO") is specified, one value is stored for all languages.
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
useLanguages | No | 2.0 | YesNo | YES |
FILTER
Using this tag the view and functionality of the selection dialogue can be changed on the basis of specifying element types.
If no FILTER tag is specified the selection dialogue in SiteArchitect shows on the navigation tab by default
- left column: shows in principle the tree structure of the project up to the folder level (independent from restrictions defined by the tag FILTER). This column serves for navigation through the project.
- middle column: shows the level below the node selected in the left column. So it provides another possibility for navigation. The desired object can be – depending on the type – taken over by default into the input component using the button "Select" ("selection").
- right column: shows the object which is marked in the middle column with its properties.
The search tab shows deviating from this in the middle column the search results.
The following element types are shown in the selection dialogue by default if no FILTER tag is set and can – with few exceptions – be taken over into the input component:
Page Store
- PAGEFOLDER (folders)
- PAGE (pages)
Content Store
- CONTENTFOLDER (folders; no selection!)
- CONTENT2 (data sources)
Media Store
- MEDIAFOLDER (folders)
- PICTURE (pictures)
- FILE (files)
Site Store
- PAGEREFFOLDER / SITESTOREFOLDER (menu levels)
- PAGEREF (page references)
- DOCUMENTGROUP (document groups)
Template Store
- TEMPLATE (templates, scripts, database schemata, workflows)
- SECTIONTEMPLATE (section templates)
- LINKTEMPLATE (link templates)
- FORMATTEMPLATE (format templates)
- TEMPLATEFOLDER (folders; no selection!)
- LINKTEMPLATEFOLDER (link template folders; no selection!)
- FORMATTEMPLATEFOLDER (format template folders; no selection!)
Globale Settings
- GCAFOLDER (folders; no selection!)
- GCAPAGE (global page)
Using the tag HIDE element types can be defined which are to be hidden from the middle column of the selection dialogue. Irrespective of the configuration using HIDE the tree structure up to folder level in the left column always remains unchanged and can always be used for navigation. The navigation using the middle column can be restricted by the configuration with HIDE. To hide elements, the above listed element types are used.
If the FILTER tag is not given all element types can be selected (i.e. taken over into the input component) by default – except for the types listed above. The ALLOW tag can be used for restricting the amount of selectable types. For this purpose the above listed element types are used, too. To make a type selectable an ALLOW tag must be given. When an ALLOW tag is given, only the type/s which is / are specified explicitely can be selected.
For an easier configuration of the selection dialogue the following, special types (wildcards) can be used additionally:
- MEDIA for all media (pictures and files)
- FOLDERS for all folder types which are enlisted above (excepted for the ones with addition "no selection!")
- ALL for all element types which are enlisted above (excepted for the ones with addition "no selection!")
Combinations of HIDE and ALLOW and specifying FOLDER:
- Each element type should be used only once within the form of the input component: either with the tag ALLOW or with the tag HIDE. If an element type is used with both tags only the ALLOW tag is taken into account for this element type.
- If the tag ALLOW is given for a type, which belongs to a subset of this type, which is hidden by means of HIDE, only the ALLOW tag is taken into account for this type.
Example: If <HIDE type="all"/> and <ALLOW type="folders"/> is given the middle column of the selection dialogue is available for navigation. Thus, the HIDE tag is overriden for the type FOLDERS. - Since the left column of the selection dialogue is always available for navigation, independent of a definition of FILTER, it is irrelevant for the selection of an element type, if the HIDE tag is given for a superordinate element type (in general: folders).
Example: If <HIDE type="pagefolder"/> and <ALLOW type="page"/> are given the folders of the Page Store are hidden in the middle and right column of the selection dialogue, but pages can be selected nonetheless. In this case the middle column is not available for navigation, other levels can be be accessed furthermore by using the left column. - The definition of the element type by means of the FILTER tag can be restricted additionally by the definition of selectable folders and stores, specified by the FOLDER tag. For example: <ALLOW type="page"/> does not have any effect on the selection dialogue if <FOLDER name="root" store="mediastore"/> is given as a restriction to the Media Store.
Example for the selection of all folders of all stores
<FILTER>
<HIDE type="ALL"/>
<ALLOW type="FOLDERS"/>
</FILTER>
In ContentCreator the selection is accomplished using a list, no navigation by means of a tree structure is required here. This list only shows elements which can be selected. If no restriction is made by using HIDE, ALLOW or FOLDER, all element types will be visible in this column and they can be taken over into the input component. In the left area of the dialog there are different options available for limiting the number of elements available for selection (for example by search term, store or folder).
Restrictions made by using FOLDER are reflected by the filter "Search in".
HIDE
Using the HIDE tag element types can be defined which are to be hidden in the selection dialogue (exception in SiteArchitect: left column). As a result these object types can no more be selected.
For each type one HIDE tag must be specified. Within this tag the object type must be specified via the parameter type in quotation marks.
<FILTER>
<HIDE type="file"/>
<HIDE type="pageref"/>
</FILTER>
In this example files (Media Store) and page references (Site Store) are suppressed from the selection dialogue. These types can not be selected in the selection dialogue.
The HIDE tag can not restrict an ALLOW tag which is specified for subordinate element types (see examples indicated at the FILTER tag). |
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
type* | Yes | 4.2 | FilterType | None |
type
The parameter type specifies the element type (in quotation marks) which is to be hidden in the selection dialogue.
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
type* | Yes | 4.2 | FilterType | None |
ALLOW
Using the ALLOW tag element types can be defined which are to be allowed to be selected in the selection dialogue. If the tag is specified for one type all other types can no more be selected. If ALLOW is not given all types can be selected.
This tag is depending on the definition of the tag FOLDER: only those types can be taken into account which are located within stores which are defined by the FOLDER tag(s). |
One ALLOW tag must be specified for each type. Within this tag the element type must be given using the parameter type in quotation marks.
<FILTER>
<ALLOW type="file"/>
<ALLOW type="pageref"/>
</FILTER>
In this example files (Media Store) and page references (Site Store) can be selected from the selection dialogue, but only if the Media Store and the Site Store are taken into account by the tag FOLDER. All other types can not be selected.
The ALLOW tag can override the HIDE tag since ALLOW is always evaluated preferentially (see combination examples indicated for the FILTER tag). |
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
type* | Yes | 4.2 | FilterType | None |
type
The parameter type specifies the element type (in quotation marks) which is should be selectable in the selection dialogue.
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
type* | Yes | 4.2 | FilterType | None |
LANGINFOS
Using the tag LANGINFOS language-dependent information can be defined for each input component, e.g. which title is to be used for the input component in the different project languages (parameter label), which tooltip is to be displayed (parameter description) etc. For reasons of clarity, definitions which are identical in multiple languages will be merged. For example,
<LANGINFOS>
<LANGINFO lang="*" label="Datum"/>
<LANGINFO lang="DE" label="Datum"/>
<LANGINFO lang="EN" label="Datum"/>
</LANGINFOS>
will be merged to
<LANGINFOS>
<LANGINFO lang="*" label="Datum"/>
</LANGINFOS>
after saving.
Up to and including FirstSpirit version 4.2R2 language definitions will be deleted only in the case if the values are identical in all languages (as in example above). Furthermore, only the parameters lang, description and label are taken into account when merging.
Since FirstSpirit version 4.2R4 all parameters are taken into account (e.g. format and length). Furthermore, language definitions are also merged within LANGINFOS tags, if they are identical in at least two languages. For example,
<LANGINFOS>
<LANGINFO lang="*" label="Date" format="dd.MM.yy"/>
<LANGINFO lang="DE" label="Date" format="dd.MM.yy"/>
<LANGINFO lang="EN" label="Date" format="MM/dd/yy"/>
</LANGINFOS>
will become
<LANGINFOS>
<LANGINFO lang="*" label="Date" format="dd.MM.yy"/>
<LANGINFO lang="EN" label="Date" format="MM/dd/yy"/>
</LANGINFOS>
after saving.
The definition for the fallback value (*) will not be deleted in any case. If there are two or more language definitions with identical values the first one will be maintained, the other will be deleted.
IMPORTANT: Up to and including FirstSpirit version 4.2R2 at least one definition for the fallback labelling ("*") must be given:
<LANGINFOS>
<LANGINFO lang="*" label="TEXT"/>
</LANGINFOS>
From FirstSpirit version 4.2R4 the fallback definition can be omitted. In this case, the language which is defined first will be used automatically as fallback value. For example,
<LANGINFOS>
<LANGINFO lang="EN" label="Date"/>
<LANGINFO lang="DE" label="Datum"/>
</LANGINFOS>
will become
<LANGINFOS>
<LANGINFO lang="*" label="Date"/>
<LANGINFO lang="DE" label="Datum"/>
</LANGINFOS>
after saving.
LANGINFO
The LANGINFO tag is used to give values or attributes for a language as well for use as fallback values.
In order to state values or attributes for a language it is necessary to give the abbreviation of the project language in the lang parameter:
...
<LANGINFO lang="DE".../>
...
Fallback values are given with the special language abbreviation * ("for all languages"):
...
<LANGINFO lang="*".../>
...
The lang parameter is a mandatory parameter.
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
lang* | Yes | 3.1 | LanguageAbbreviation | None |
description | No | 3.1 | String | None |
label | No | 3.1 | String | None |
lang
The lang parameter is used to give the language abbreviation which is entered in the server properties see , Chapter "Language templates") to specify for which project languages the definitions are to apply, e.g. DE for German, EN for English, FR for French etc. The following characters can be used as often as required: -, _, 0-9 and A-Z. Lower case letters are transformed automatically into upper case letters after having saved the template. In addition * can be used for fallback values.
Parameter | Mandatory | Since | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
lang* | Yes | 3.1 | LanguageAbbreviation | None |
description
The description parameter can be used to give a description which is used to display a tool tip (mouse-over).

label | No | 3.1 | String | None |
PROJECTS
The tag PROJECTS can be used to define the projects (local and/or remote) from which references are allowed to be selected.
Remote projects are specified usind the tag REMOTE, using the tag CATEGORY one or more remote category/categories can be defined. The actual project is specified by the tag LOCAL. Any number of projects can be defined here.
Moreover, for each project the tags SOURCES and FOLDER can be given. They define from which folders a reference is allowed to be selected.
The sorting of the project definitions has an impact on the order of projects in the selection and in the upload dialogue (the local project is excepted from this sorting).
For restrictions of using remote media in ContentCreator please see page Restrictions. |
REMOTE
Using this tag one or more remote projects can be defined which is/are to be taken into account. For each remote project one REMOTE tag must be given.

Using autoReleaseAfterUpload="YES" you can define that media, which are uploaded by this input component, will be released directly. If autoReleaseAfterUpload="NO" is given auto release will be disabled.
This parameter is only taken into accoung if the upload is enabled for this input component via upload="YES" and if a valid target folder is defined by the parameter uploadFolder.
Auto release can only be used if the user has got the necessary rights. If the user has no release rights in the project into which the object is to be uploaded, the object will be uploaded anyway, but not released. |
