META -- displays meta-data
- Provided mainly for use in templates, this variable generates the parts of the topic view that relate to meta-data (attachments, forms etc.) The
formfield item is the most likely to be useful to casual users.
- Syntax:
%META{ "item" ...}%
- Parameters:
| Item | Options | Description | "formfield" | name="...": name of the field. The field value can be shortened as described in FormattedSearch for $formfield.
newline="...": by default, each newline character will be rewritten to <br /> to allow metadata that contains newlines to be used in tables, etc. $n indicates a newline character.
bar="...": by default, each vertical bar is rewritten to an HTML entity so as to not be mistaken for a table separator.
encode="type": have the value encoded in the specified type. Possible types are the same as ENCODE's. If this is specified, newline and bar options are ignored.
topic="...": Get meta info of "Topic" or "Web.Topic"; default "%BASEWEB%.%BASETOPIC%". | Show a single form field | "form" | topic="...": Get meta info of "Topic" or "Web.Topic"; default "%BASEWEB%.%BASETOPIC%". | Generates the table showing the form fields. See Form Templates | "attachments" | all="on" to show hidden attachments.
title="..." to show a title - only if attachments are displayed.
template="..." to use a custom template for the rendering of attachments; default attachtables is used.
topic="...": Get meta info of "Topic" or "Web.Topic"; default "%BASEWEB%.%BASETOPIC%". | Generates the list of attachments | "moved" | topic="...": Get meta info of "Topic" or "Web.Topic"; default "%BASEWEB%.%BASETOPIC%". | Details of any topic moves | "parent" | dontrecurse="on": By default recurses up tree, this has some cost.
nowebhome="on": Suppress WebHome.
prefix="...": Prefix that goes before parents, but only if there are parents, default "".
format="...": Format string used to display each parent topic where $web expands to the web name, and $topic expands to the topic name; default: "[[$web.$topic][$topic]]"
suffix="...": Suffix, only appears if there are parents; default "".
separator="...": Separator between parents; default " > ".
topic="...": Get meta info of "Topic" or "Web.Topic"; default "%BASEWEB%.%BASETOPIC%". | Generates the parent link |
- Attention: The base topic, not the current topic, is used if
%META{}% is placed in an included topic. Add a topic="%WEB%.%TOPIC%" parameter if you need meta info of the current topic.
- Note: Formatting tokens can be used for
newline, prefix, format, suffix and separator options, such as separator="$n * "
