Adding EPiFields Support to Non EPiFields Page Types

Versions: 4.40, FAQ number: 206, Old FAQ number: 2866

EPiFields is an add-on function to EPiServer, which gives editors/authors the possibility to insert variable data into the Editor. This is especially useful when you want to show data from other systems on a normal EPiServer page.

After installing EPiFields, you can only use EPiFields in the Editor in EPiFields - Ordinary Page page types. To add EPiFields support to other page types, e.g. ordinary Web pages, follow the instructions below.

  1. Go to Admin mode and, from the Page types section, select the page type that you want EPiFields to be available in, e.g. Ordinary Web page.
  2. Click the MainBody property, which will open the Edit property window. Change the Type field so that it has property EPiServer.Fields.LongString. Click Save.
