What's the difference between contentValues and objectValues? I've created
a customized version of folder_contents in my new skin, and it's doing
something odd. When I first ran it, it didn't show the folders that were
in organizing/healthcare, even though they showed up in /manage. I added
some folders & content via folder_contents, and it showed up, but not the
folders that had been created by /manage.
I looked at the code and found that folder_contents called contentValues,
for which I couldn't find documentation. Just for the hell of it, I
switched it to objectValues:
---------------------------
<dtml-in expr="objectValues()"
sort="id" size="19" start=qs>
------------------------------
Now everything shows up. So, what's the difference between contentValues
and objectValues?
I'm wondering whether my confusion is really over the difference between
members and users. I know members have abilities that users don't, such as
the ability to choose which skin they want. But what's the relationship
betwixt the two? To create a member, do you first create a user? And
where do I find documentation on this? I couldn't sort it out from
Beehive's otherwise quite helpful documentation.
Thanks,
