Smartsite 7.4
As of Smartsite 7.4, the linkinput control also includes a YouTube button, which allows the user to select a video using YouTube.
The linkinput control is in fact a base control now for linking content, an image, a file or a YouTube video, which renders as a textbox with a series of buttons.
Which buttons to show can be manipulated using a different control type name:
- fileinput: only the file explorer button is shown.
- iteminput: only the item-related buttons (Content tree, Content and Media) are shown (if the user has access to the underlying useraction).
- youtubeinput: only the YouTube buttons is shown.
- linkinput: all buttons are shown.
cms:showbuttons
As of Smartsite 7.8, you can set the cms:showbuttons ctfp to specify which buttons should be displayed. The value of this ctfp should list the buttons to show, comma-separated, e.g. "contenttree, contentlibrary".
The available buttons are:
- contenttree
- contentlibrary
- medialibrary
- fileexplorer
- youtube
When this ctfp has not been set, which buttons will be shown depends on the control type, as listed above.
