Block Types

Content Types

By default, OnlyHtml assumes that all template tags are text, and will generate text field inputs in the dashboard. You can easily change the type of dashboard input by specifying one of the types below.
{{oh intro type="html"}}
Additionally, template tags accept any number of parameters, which can tell OnlyHtml how to render the content, or how to further configure the dashboard input. Each content type below has a corresponding table which describes its parameters.

Reference

This feature is unstable
What if we have a a blog where each post has one author. We could set up a field of a post to be the author name and author picture, problem is it feels we are repeating ourselves. Instead we can use reference fields.
For example, lets look at this blog post
<main>
{{#collection_item post}}
<h1>{{oh title}}</h1>
{{declare author type="reference" target="author"}}
{{#with author}}
<span>{{name}}</span>
{{/with}}
{{/collection_item}}
</main>
Parameter Name
Default Value
Possible Values
Description
target
any collection name
the collection we want to reference
multiple
false
true | false
allow selecting more than one item
