end

#cms_template_editor(method, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Renders a template editor that allows developers to edit the view used to render a specific block. Render both a ‘Handler’ select box (erb, builder, etc) and a text_area for editing. Will not display the editor if the underlying object is marked as ‘render_inline(false)’. This allows developers to edit the render.html.erb directly to update how the model displays.

For example, Portlets will often specify a :template to allow runtime update of their view.

Options:

:default_handler - Which handler will be the default when creating new instances. (Defaults to erb)
:instructions - Instructions that will be displayed below the text area. (Blank by default)
:label - The name for the label (Defaults to humanized version of field name)
