multiedit

Available since Exponential 6.0.15 (in development, not in a release yet).

Summary

Editing the full attribute set of several objects in one form.

The one thing that makes this possible without touching a single datatype: every datatype edit template names its inputs after the content object attribute id -

  name="{$attribute_base}_ezstring_data_text_{$attribute.id}"

- and that id is unique per object, per version, per language. So one form can carry the attributes of any number of objects with no name collisions, and fetchInput()/validateInput()/storeInput() are called per object exactly as content/edit calls them for one. A datatype that works in the normal editor work
