Function Parameters
Introduction
Functions play a key role in designing and developing websites in C1 CMS, and their input parameters help make the functions highly adjustable and customizable.
In this guide you will learn how to create function parameters, set default and test values and select proper widgets as well as find out what parameter types are available in C1 CMS.
This guide is intended for developers who want to learn how to create parameters for XSLT, C# inline and SQL functions in C1 CMS.
As a developer, you must be an expert in XML and XSLT, C# or SQL based on what type of functions you create. You should also know how to work with C1 CMS and in its CMS Console.
You need to have access to the Functions perspective with sufficient permissions to create and edit CMS functions. To use the CMS functions on pages and layout templates, you might also need to have access to the Content and Layout perspectives.
