Fetch data stored in table of Page type in Uni Selector source

Hi,

Do you want to retrieve all your custom page types? Or what are you trying to achieve? For example if you want all page types of a specific website you could use the following UNI selector properties:

• Object type: cms.documenttype
• Return column name: ClassName
• Object site name: sitename
• Selection mode: Single drop down list

Each page type has a code name that was automatically given when you created the page type. You can see the page type's code name when you go to the Page Types application. Use that code name for the object type.

@Dat Nguyen, I know the code name for the Page Type and I did try to put that code name in Object Type field and then I put one of the field names in the Return Column Name field for uni selector but when i try to add new record in Data tab, i get error message then the New Record page does not display at all, instead An error occurred and your request couldn't be completed.. displays on the page.

Can you please give a working example of how to put the Page Type name in Object Type? I was thinking that since the syntax for Custom table was such as customtableitem.<customtableCodeName> so similarly i have to use some kind of reserve word before putting the code name for page type..

@Arjan, basically i added a Uni selector field inside a custom table, the data of which should be fetched from a PageType. The name of the pagetype is AIM_Congress_Speakers. so, how do i put use this in Object Type?

@Walid Farghal

Then you could use the WHERE on the UNI selector. ClassName = 'AIM_Congress_Speakers'. The next thing is getting the return column right. What do you need there?

Hi Walid. According to this answer Similar questions you should specify parameters as on screen below

Uni selector settings

You can also use cms.document.pagetypeCodeName format to select only given page type pages.
