6.3.1 Default-Teaser

The default-teaser brick provides templates and basic CSS styles for default teasers. Templates exist for all kinds of CMTeasable and as special variants for certain other types, such as Commerce Objects, Pictures, Downloads etc.

Using the Brick

As shown in the example below, a default teaser can be displayed by including the corresponding content type with the teaser view. You can also pass additional CSS classes as parameters to apply custom styling to your default teasers.

  <@cm.include self=self view="teaser"/>
  

The teaser view template works with all types and subtypes of type com.coremedia.blueprint.common.contentbeans.CMTeasable. The following special views exist:

  • CategoryInSite.teaser.ftl

  • CMDownload.teaser.ftl

  • CMGallery.teaser.ftl

  • CMHTML.teaser.ftl

  • CMPicture.teaser.ftl

  • CMSpinner.teaser.ftl (part of the 360-Spinner Brick)

  • CMTeasable.teaser.ftl

  • LiveContextExternalChannel.teaser.ftl

  • LiveContextProductTeasable.teaser.ftl

  • ProductInSite.teaser.ftl

To configure the behavior of the template you can add the following parameters to the cm.include tag:

Parameter Type Default Description
blockClass String "cm-teasable" A base name that will be used for CSS classes attached to the elements rendered by the template.
additionalClass String "" An additional CSS class that will be added to the outer div of the teaser.
