Template set tab

A unique tab is displayed for each template set or presentation channel added by the administrator for a project in the ServerManager. The entries from the Page Store can be checked, processed, and evaluated in these presentation channels. The HTML source code, which defines the appearance and content of the website, is entered in the “HTML” presentation channel.

Line numbering can be shown or hidden using the icon in the top right-hand corner.

Search in templates

 

The following icons are used to run searches in templates:

Find (Ctrl+F): Opens a window in which the user can search for text.

Replace (Ctrl+R): Opens a window in which the user can search for and replace text.

Next occurrence (F3): Jumps to the next search result.

Previous occurrence (Shift+F3): Jumps to the last search result.

Undo (Ctrl+Z): Undoes the last change.

Redo (Ctrl+Y): Restores changes that have been undone.

Presentation channel

The HTML output can be divided into two different areas: a CMS_HEADER area and an area strictly for HTML:

In the <CMS_HEADER> tags:

  • functions are defined.
  • the content area of a page template is specified. In these areas sections can later be added to the Page Store.
  • $CMS_...(...)$ expressions are not resolved. This property is one of the main sources of errors in template development!

The entire HTML output is defined within the <HTML> tags.
$CMS_...(...)$ instructions are only resolved here.
