FieldRefs Element (ContentType)
Published: May 2010
Represents a collection of column references included in the content type.
<FieldRefs> </FieldRefs>
The FieldRefs element contains a collection of FieldRef elements. The FieldRef element is a reference to a column defined elsewhere, either at the site or list level. In the field reference, you can override a subset of the column properties, such as the following:
Display name
XML promotion and demotion attributes
Whether the field is read-only, required, or hidden
Changing these properties in the field reference only changes them as they apply to the specific content type that contains the field reference.
Note
|
|---|
The order in which FieldRef elements are listed determines the order of fields shown on NewForm.aspx. |
The DocumentTemplate child element is obsolete. Instead use the DocumentTemplate element that is a child of the ContentType element.
For more information about field references, see Fields and Field References.
The following example shows the field references collection for the Document content type.
