attribute_filter doesn't work

Friday 30 January 2009 10:29:40 am

I extended the article class by adding the attribute 'possition' (datatype: select).
I did this because I have to define in which of three columns the created object should be placed.

in my design template i have to examine whether there is an article which I have to place in column1. therefore i use this code

{def $contlist = fetch('content',
	'list_count',
	hash('parent_node_id', 2, 
		'class_filter_type', 'include',
		'class_filter_array', array('article_standard'),
		'attribute_filter', array(
			array('article_standard/position','=','column1'),
		)
         )
)
}

Although I have placed an article of the class 'article_standard' under the parent node 2
into Column1, the output of $contlist is 0.

Leaving the attribute filter away:

 {def $contlist = fetch('content',
	'list_count',
	hash('parent_node_id', 2, 
		'class_filter_type', 'include',
		'class_filter_array', array('article_standard'),
		
         )
)
}

In this case code results the expected 1. What is my mistake?

Thank you. You're right. I changed the code to:

{def $contlist = fetch('content',
	'list_count',
	hash('parent_node_id', 2, 
		'class_filter_type', 'include',
		'class_filter_array', array('article_standard'),
		'attribute_filter',array('and',
			array('article_standard/position','=',0),
			array('article_standard/title','like','*Test*')
		)
	)
)}

and now it works.
