The OEmbed Template Root
The template root name oembed
is reserved for a
special purpose. If your installation includes Live
Center (a Content Engine plug-in for editing and managing
live blogs), then you can use the oembed
root to
hold a special set of article
templates for
rendering content items that have been embedded in Live Center
event entries. For general information about
displaying Live Center event entries, see
Display Live Blog Entries. Note that
oembed
templates will only work with
Live Center version 1.4 or
later.
Live Center allows live bloggers to embed
Escenic
content items in their blog posts (or event
entries). When a
Live
Entries view is used to render event entries, any embedded
content items are rendered using
config.oembed.article
templates rather than
config.default.article
templates.
You should only include article
templates under
the oembed
template root: if you include
section
templates they will not be used.
The root group of all config.oembed.article
templates must be an
OEmbed
config group. This group is a simplified version of the
Config
group that forms the root of
config.default.article
templates.
OEmbed templates are selected in exactly the same way as default
templates. If, for example, you want all your content items except
Picture
to be rendered by the same template, then
you can achieve this with the following oembed
template hierarchy:
config
config.oembed
config.oembed.article
config.oembed.article.type.picture
