The CMSViewer control allows you to display document data from the Kentico CMS database based on XSLT transformations without the need to write any additional code.

 

The content is specified using its Path, MaxRelativeLevel, ClassNames, CultureCode, WhereCondition and OrderBy properties. Data is retrieved using the SelectDocuments query of the specified document type. These queries can be found at Kentico CMS Site Manager -> Development -> Document types -> ... Edit specified document type ... -> Queries.

 

The portal engine equivalent of the CMSViewer control is the Listings and viewers -> Documents -> XSLT viewer web part.
