The Development section allows you to create document templates, define data structure, editing forms, transformations, queries, permission names and allowed child templates of each document template.

Important - Refreshing Configuration Metadata
All configuration settings (metadata) are cached into the memory when they are first requested. When you need to update them manually, you need to press the Reload Metadata button in the Kentico CMS Desk, in the Development menu. If you need to update them in your application's memory, you either need to restart the application (e.g. by modifying its web.config file) or to call the MetadataProvider.ClearMetadata method in your code.
The metadata modified in the Development section are updated in the memory automatically. |
Here's an explanation of used terms:
Application represents a "namespace" or "group" for organizing your document templates. | |
Document template represents a type of document stored in the tree structure, such as news, article, product description, etc. | |
Each document template can contain only allowed child templates as its sub-items in the tree structure. | |
Module is either a part of Kentico CMS or your custom module. It has its own permission matrix. E.g. "CMS Administration" is a module and it has its own permission names specified. You can define your own modules. | |
Permission name represents an access right that can be assigned to a role. It's always bound to some particular document template or module. | |
Page templates are common ASP.NET pages that receive path of the document to be displayed through the Request.Querystring("AliasPath") parameter. | |
