Warning ⚠️: New Docs Available

These are old docs and we haven't found the time to completely move them. You will find comprehensive new docs on docs.2sxc.org.

Introduced in Version 06.00.00

Apps now have typed settings. These are configured in the app-configuration like you would configure any other entity. You can access these values as follows:

  • [App:Settings:ListSize] or [App:Resources:IntroText]
  • @App.Settings.ListSize or App.Resources.IntroText

Guideline when to use Setting vs. Resources

In general, settings are configuration values. For example, how many of something to show, filter-parameters and similar. Settings usually don't change from language to language (usually don't but they can). 

Resources are used for labels, introduction texts, copyrights and images - things than look a bit like content, but are used site-wide and often vary from language to language.
