Hello ...
I'm newbie in eZ publish ....
Anybody knows how to read author item like id, name and email address ?
I already try the following code, but it's not work...

{section name=Child loop=$children}
{section name=Author loop=$Child:item.data_map.author.content.author_list}
{$Author:item.id}: {$Author:item.name|wash}-{$Author:item.email|wash} <br>
{/section}
{/section}

Another thing...... in which table in database the content data of class attributes are recorded ?

Thank you....

I would try the following to access the different attributes:

{$:item.id}

or

{$Child:Author:item.id}

The Author namespace is inside the Child namespace. If you want to access a variable in the namespace, you have to specify the parent namespace(s). The $: in the first example refers to the current namespace, but I'm not sure if that operator also works in nested namespaces.
