5.7 error when viewing content item

Rhythmyx Technical Discussion
1

I get the following error when ever I try to open a specific type of content items. This started when I was editing the content editor and I changed the setting for “shared/DefautVariantid” and checked the “mayContainIDs” option. I started to get this error, I changed it back and the error does not go away. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Ken

Hi Ken

Whenever you configure the default_variantid shared field you also have to add the contenttype id to the controls choice’s applications settings.

Thanks, James… could you explain how that is done?

Hi Ken

I’ve attached a screen shot which should tell you how to do it. It is taken from a 6.5.2 system which still uses XSLT templates.
