Placeholder for content type?

Is there a placeholder that can be used for WayFinder or GetResources where you can populate the content type of the resources (or Static Resources) being summarized?

Try [[+content_type]]

hmm, this output the ID of the content type. So for HTML content types it will output 1, for CSS it will output 4, etc.

Well... that’s a start. I could write a custom output filter that did a lookup of the content_type id and output the Content type name...

Thanks!

Yeah, that’s what i was thinking but haven’t worked enough with output filters to make any suggestions/ I guess a snippet could do it too. If you come up with a workable solution please do share it

[[+contentType]]

[[+contentType]]

Thanks Shaun . This outputs the mime type, so in the case of HTML it outputs text/html. Is there a way to output the content type name, e.g. HTML?

Ah, no. That would require a custom output filter.

Is this documented anywhere?

Ok, here’s the little custom Output Filter Snippet I wrote, named lookupContentType:



I’m using it in a Wayfinder call, e.g. here’s my rowTpl Chunk:



is there a placeholder for content disposition?
