Provides a behavior for using plone.app.iterate with dexterity content types

None

Project description

Introduction

The IStagingSupport behavior is used for enabling the plone.app.iterate functionality for Dexterity content. It allows you to perform the checkout and checkin operations to work on a copy of your original content.

Usage

Just use the behavior plone.app.stagingbehavior.interfaces.IStagingSupport in your Dexterity content-type.

In your profiles/default/types/YOURTYPE.xml add the behavior:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<object name="example.conference.presenter" meta_type="Dexterity FTI"
   i18n:domain="example.conference" xmlns:i18n="http://xml.zope.org/namespaces/i18n">

 <!-- enabled behaviors -->
 <property name="behaviors">
     <element value="plone.app.stagingbehavior.interfaces.IStagingSupport" />
 </property>

</object>

The IStagingSupport behavior just adds the refered staging support to your content-type, but it does not enable it.

You have to set the “versioning” option in the Plone types control panel (/@@types-controlpanel) to either “Manual” or “Automatic” for activating versioning.

More Information
