Useful Page Properties

The following are some basic properties and methods of the Page class that you will find useful.

• Setting the OutputCacheDuration property to anything greater than 0 (seconds) will cache its rendered output for performance considerations (use when appropriate).
• The AttributeValue(attributeName) method can be used to get the value of any attribute associated to the instance of the page.
• The CurrentPerson property represents the currently authenticated (logged in) person and the CurrentPersonId is that person's ID.
• DisplayInNavWhen – Determines when a page should be listed in navigation. Valid values are:
• WhenAllowed (0) - Only shows in nav when security allows (default).
• Always (1) - Always shows up. If you don't have security when you click it, it will ask you to log in. This keeps you from having to make redirect pages.
• Never (2) - will never show up in the navigation.
• MenuDisplayDescription – Tells the drop down menu to add the description to the page's listing.
• MenuDisplayIcon – Tells the drop down menu to add the icon to the page's listing.
• MenuDisplayChildPages – Tells the drop down menu to add a list of child pages to the page's listing.
