The ID number of the content class which the object is an instance of. |
is_published |
string |
Yes. |
Either 1 or 0. 1 means that the object has been published. 0 means that the object has not yet been published. |
published |

Yes. |
The sum of the ID numbers of the languages in which the last published version of the object exists. Please note that the ID numbers are powers of 2. 1 (2^0) is reserved for marking objects that should always be available. Objects that are always available will be fetched even if they do not exist in any of the site/prioritized languages (the initial/main language of the object will be used). |

related_contentobject_array |

related_contentobject_count |

reverse_related_contentobject_array |
array |
No. |
An array of ezcontentobject objects that make use of this object (reverse relations). This attribute is deprecated. It is recommended to use the " reverse_related_objects" fetch function instead. |
reverse_related_contentobject_count |
string |
No. |
The number of objects that are using this object. This attribute is deprecated. It is recommended to use the " reverse_related_objects_count" fetch function instead. |
can_read |
boolean |
No. |
Returns TRUE if the current user has read access to the object, FALSE otherwise. |
can_pdf |
boolean |
No. |
Not documented yet. |
can_diff |
boolean |
No. |
Not documented yet. |
can_create |
boolean |
No. |
Not documented yet. |

boolean |
No. |
Returns TRUE if the current user has permissions to remove the object, FALSE otherwise. |
can_move |
boolean |
No. |
Not documented yet. |
can_move_from |
boolean |
No. |
Returns TRUE if the current user has permissions to move the main node of the object, FALSE otherwise. |
can_view_embed |
boolean |
No. |
Not documented yet. |
data_map |
array |
No. |
Array of ezcontentobjectattribute objects representing the actual attributes of the content object. |
main_parent_node_id |
string |
No. |
The ID number of the main node of the object encapsulated by the parent node. |
assigned_nodes |
array |
No. |
Array of nodes (as ezcontentobjecttreenode objects) that encapsulate the object. |
parent_nodes |
array |
No. |
An array of ID numbers of the parent nodes (as strings). |
main_node_id |
string |
No. |
The ID number of the object's main node. |
main_node |
object |
No. |
The object's main node (as ezcontentobjecttreenode). |
default_language |
string |
No. |
The default language for content objects (see ContentObjectLocale) if it is set or the most prioritized language (i.e. the first element of the "SiteLanguageList" array). |
content_action_list |
array |
No. |
An array of hashes revealing information about the content actions that can be performed on the object. The keys "name" and "action" contain the actual name (for example "Add to basket" - which should be value of the HTML input tag) and the action itself (for example "ActionAddToBasket" - which should be the name of the HTML input tag). The array is generated by a function that examines the object's attributes. If a datatype used to represent an attribute provides support for content actions or if the attribute is an information collector, the supported actions will be added to the "content_action_list" array. This array can be used to automatically generate action buttons (standard HTML buttons) for content objects that either make use of special datatypes or have attributes that are marked as information collectors. |
class_identifier |
string |
No. |
The identifier of the class which the object is an instance of (for example "consumer_product"). |
class_group_id_list |
array |
No. |
An array of ID numbers of the class groups which the class (that the object is an instance of) belongs to. |
name |
string |
No. |
The actual name of the object in the current language (for example "Liver sandwich"). |
match_ingroup_id_list |
array |
No. |
The ID numbers of the class groups that the class (which the object is an instance of) belongs to. This variable is connected with a feature that makes it possible to create template overrides based on class groups. By default the "match_ingroup_id_list" always returns a boolean FALSE value because the class group override feature is turned off. It can be turned on by setting the "EnableClassGroupOverride" directive in the [ContentOverrideSettings] block of a configuration override for "content.ini" to "true". |
current_language |
string |
No. |
Not documented yet. |
current_language_object |
object |

initial_language_code |
string |
No. |
The code of the initial/main language (for example "eng-GB"). |
available_languages |
array |
No. |
The languages in which the last published version of the object exists (as an array of locale codes). |
language_codes |

language_js_array |
string |
No. |
Not documented yet. |
languages |
array |
No. |
The list of languages the object exists in, ordered by their priority (as an array of ezcontentlanguage objects). |
can_edit_languages |

Not documented yet. |
can_create_languages |
array |
No. |
Not documented yet. |
always_available |
boolean |
No. |
Returns TRUE if the object is marked as "always available" (i.e. the object will be fetched even if it does not exist in any of the site languages), FALSE otherwise. |
* Indicates whether the attribute provides a pre-fetched value or if it needs to be computed upon request.
