Settings in 2sxc

Settings allow your code to use predefined settings across all apps and sites. And they allow you to overide a setting at any level of the application. You can read more about the settings in the docs 📕.

The samples can differ based on your Razor base class or if you're running an old version.
Selected: Typed (2sxc 16+) Switch to Dynamic (Razor14 or below)

  It ensures it's safe for use in attributes or as a definite integer.

Settings Stack

Global and local settings are merged together, so you can access them no matter where they were defined. 

This demo app will be installed on many sites which don't have any settings, so there is no code to demo this.
