A customizable dashboard for Umbraco documents, e.g. so "container" types can show something useful when selected in the Content tree.
This is implemented as a simple XSLT macro by using the uComponents RenderMacro DataType, so you need uComponents installed for it to work.
- Install the package as any other package, from the Developer section of Umbraco
- Add a property to any DocumentType you want using the "Document Dashboard" DataType installed, and you can have a custom dashboard for them
You can use XSLT's awesome templating mechanism to create custom dashboards for your specific types of documents, just
by adding them to the _Dashboards.xslt
file — there's a simple demo of an images mode to show how you can
create a wall of images, e.g. for a People
container showing an image from all the child nodes.
