MetaData

In addition to the reserved attributes presented below, any attributes can also be defined. These are then available in the template code.

Title

title: The title.

Render template

The template to be used to render this page.

template: blog-entry.html

Excerpt

The content excerpt is used wherever the Query or NodeList function is used in templates.

excerpt: Short excerpt of the content.

Visibility

In the standard system, a page is considered published as soon as it has been created.

published: false

Publish from a certain date

publish_date: 2023-12-01

No more publishing after a certain date

unpublish_date: 2023-12-31

Menu

If menus are created using the navigation function, these attributes can be used to control whether a page appears in the menu, where it appears and what title it has.

Visibility in menus

menu:
    visible: true/false

Position in menus

The menu items are displayed in ascending order by position; if no position attribute has been assigned, the standard 1000 applies. If items are assigned more than once, they are sorted alphanumerically.

menu:
    position: 50

Title used in menus

If the value in the title attribute is too long and therefore not suitable for the menu, it can simply be overwritten.

menu:
    title: Short title

Redirects

The redirect attribute can be used to redirect pages to external URLs.

redirect:
    status: 301
    location: https://google.de

Content-Type

Other text-based formats can also be created by setting the content type. The default content type is text/html and does not have to be specified explicitly.

content:
    type: "application/json"

Views

Using views (type: view), queries can be specified directly in the metadata and processed in the template using ${page.items}.

template: views/test.html
type: view
content:
  query:
    from: "/"
    excerpt: 250
    order_by: title
    order_direction: asc
    conditions: 
      - name: where
        operator: =
        key: template
        value: content.html
