Hi,

I want to retrieve the value of MetaDataArray[keywords] and I can't find how !

This is what I did, but this doesn't seem to work:

{def $tab=ezini('SiteSettings','MetaDataArray')}
{$tab.keywords}
{/def}

Your help is welcomed,

K.

What do you get with:

{$tab|attribute(show)}

?

No that's not the good solution as it returns all the attribute of an array and other details like attribute name and type.

Thanks for your help,
K.

Kristof wants to know what output you get when you run

{$tab|attribute(show)}

That way it is possible to determine what the correct call would be to get MetaDataArray[keywords] directly.

Ok, sorry, made a long time I did not use my English :)

So with the following code

{let $meta_data=ezini( 'SiteSettings','MetaDataArray' ) }
 {$meta_data|attribute(show)}		
{/let}

I get the following result

Attribute / type / Value
author string 'author'
copyright string 'gpl
description string 'Exponential cms'
keywords string 'cms, publish, Exponential, Exponential'

Then I did :

{$meta_data.keywords}

And it works now ... I might have done something wrong ...

Thanks for your help

I suddenly see what you did wrong: you must not close the </i>def</i> function with <b>{/def}</b>.

To destroy the variable you've created, you can use <i>undef</i> (see http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/3_6/reference/template_functions/variables/undef).
