Quick Attribute View block placement

Place the Quick Attribute View block anywhere on the page.

Place the block on just the page you are interested in, or in a global area to make it available across the front end of a site.

Take care not to leave this block publicly available on a live site.

Select who can use it

In any Quick Attribute View block the user(s) eligible to view the information can be selected from:

  • Anyone
  • The owner of the page
  • A single user
  • A group of users
  • Any registered user

Users that don’t have access simply don’t get to see the block and no attribute data will be included in the page.

Users with admin access to a page will always be eligible to view the information (unless access is set to nobody).

Select what information to show

Tick checkboxes to select what attribute information to view:

  • Page/Collection attributes
  • User attributes for the page owner
  • User attributes for the current user
  • Show unused attributes

Options

Show unused attributes

Normally only attributes that have been set will be shown. Selecting this will show all attributes, including those that have not been set.

Hide while rendering

Attribute information is hidden while the page is rendering. When un-checked, will allow the information to show while the page is being rendered. If php or script errors break the page this may still enable some attribute information to be seen.

Use toggle control

Show a toggle control for the information. When un-checked, will always show the information to eligible users.

AJAX update

The included Blocks by AJAX template can be used to refresh the view without having to refresh the page (requires Blocks by AJAX to be installed).
