As an experienced website operation expert, I fully understand your rigorous attitude towards accurately calling and managing page elements when using AnQiCMS for content creation, especially for visual components like Banner.bannerListThe label plays an important role in the visual presentation of the website, and accurately obtaining itTitleis the key to achieving refined operation.

AnQiCMS中Banner内容的管理与调用：一场探索之旅

In AnQiCMS, the management of Banner is slightly different from the traditional concept of 'independent content module'. It does not exist independently under a module named 'Banner Management', but is ingeniously integrated into other core content types -Categoryandsingle pageThe management system. This design philosophy reflects AnQiCMS's pursuit of simplicity, efficiency, and content-centricity.

Where can I find the 'true face' of Banner in the background?

When we talk about Banner'sTitleThe field and its corresponding relationship in the background, we need to focus on the content management core of AnQiCMS:Categorize managementandSingle Page Management.

  1. Banner in category management:

    • Enter AnQiCMS backend, navigate to“Content Management”-Document Classification.
    • Select any category you need to edit (such as "Product Category
    • Scroll down, you will see an area namedOther Parameters. Expand this area to find"Banner Image"Options.
    • Here, you can upload one or more images as the Banner slideshow for this category. Each image, in addition to the file itself, can also be setLink Address(Link),Introduction(Description) AndImage Alt(Alt).
    • The key point is:Here, AnQiCMS does not provide a clear input box labeled as 'Banner Title'. Usually, we would be looking in图片AltFill in the description text related to the Banner image content here. This text can help search engines understand the image and also be used as the title or brief description of the image on the front end.

  2. Single page management Banner:

    • Similar to category management, exclusive banners can also be configured for independent single pages such as "About Us" and "Contact Us".
    • Navigate to“Page Resources”-"Page Management".
    • Editing a single page, just as inOther ParametersWithin the area, you can find"Banner Image"options with the same configuration and fields (link address, description, image Alt) as the Banner in the category management.

From the background configuration, the Banner itself does not have a directTitleField allows you to fill in.This usually means that in the design philosophy of AnQiCMS, the 'title' of a Banner is often an extension application of its 'Alt' attribute or 'Description' attribute on the front-end.

bannerListtagsTitlefield acquisition and practical strategy

Now, let's turn to the template level, and explorebannerListtags. According to the information you providedtag-/anqiapi-other/3498.htmlDocument:

  • bannerListThe usage of the label is{% bannerList 变量名称 %}for example{% bannerList banners %}...{% endbannerList %}.
  • It supports parameters includingsiteIdandtype(Used to distinguish different Banner groupings, the default is "default").
  • itemThe variable (each Banner item within the loop) has available fieldsId,Logo,Link,Description,Alt.

Here, you may have noticed a subtle but important issue: the listed in the documentitemThe field does not have a name calledTitleYou saw the usage example in the document code<h5>{{item.Title}}</h5>.

This document example and the difference from the field list are not uncommon in actual development. There are usually several possibilities:

  1. Smart mapping or alias:AnQiCMS's template engine may have performed an internal processing, when callingitem.Titleit will automatically try to useitem.Altoritem.DescriptionThe value as an alternative. In many scenarios, the alternative text (Alt) of a Banner itself is its most direct title description.
  2. Legacy or general code conventions:The example code may have followed a certain common template convention without strictly adhering to the specific field naming of Banner in AnQiCMS.
  3. Reserved for future features:It may also be added in future versionsTitleReserved for fields.

Then, as an operation expert, how should we safely obtain the 'title' of the Banner?

Consideringitem.AltIs a field explicitly provided by the backend, and its semantics are the alternative text description of the image, which is very important for SEO and user experience, therefore I strongly recommend that you inbannerListTag within, prefer usingitem.AltAs the Banner title or description information.

Here is a secure template call example:

{% bannerList banners %}
    {% for item in banners %}
    <a href="{{item.Link}}" target="_blank">
        <img src="{{item.Logo}}" alt="{{item.Alt}}" />
        {# 使用item.Alt作为Banner的标题或描述 #}
        <h5>{{item.Alt}}</h5>
        {# 如果需要更长的描述，可以考虑使用 Description 字段 #}
        {% if item.Description %}
            <p>{{item.Description}}</p>
        {% endif %}
    </a>
    {% endfor %}
{% endbannerList %}

Summarize:

  • In AnQiCMS background, Banner content is not managed independently, but integrated inCategoryandsingle pagethe editing interface.
  • The fields provided by the background for Banner mainly include the image itself, the link address,Image AltandIntroduction.图片Altwhich are most commonly used as the title or brief description of the Banner.
  • InbannerListTemplate tags, although examples may show{{item.Title}}, but it is safer and conforms to the current document specification to use{{item.Alt}}Get the Banner text description, which ensures that the data you call matches the backend settings clearly.

By this means, you can not only effectively display the Banner text information on the front end, but also ensure that your website performs well in search engine optimization, becauseAltThe text is crucial for image SEO.
