Apple cms calls related articles of the current column

To display videos within the current category in Apple CMS, you can use the template tag.{maccms:vod}的type="current"Parameter Implementation. The following outlines the specific steps and extended configuration instructions:

{maccms:vod num="12" type="current" order="desc" by="hits"}
<li class="clear">
  <a class="thumbnail-link"
      href="{:mac_url_vod_play($vo,1,1)}"
      rel="bookmark">
    <div class="thumbnail-wrap">
      <img src="{$vo.vod_pic}" />
      <div class="video-duration">{$vo.vod_year}</div>
    </div>
  </a>
  <div class="entry-wrap">
    <a href="{:mac_url_vod_play($vo,1,1)}"
        rel="bookmark">{$vo.vod_name}</a>
    <div class="entry-meta">
      <span class="entry-views">
        <i class="fa fa-eye"></i>
        <span class="view-count">{$vo.vod_hits}次观看</span>
      </span>
      <span class="sep"> &middot; </span>
      <span class="entry-date">{$vo.vod_time|mac_day}</span>
    </div>
  </div>
</li>
{/maccms:vod}

I. Basic Call Code

In template files (e.g.vodplay.htmlAdd the following code to the column page template:

{maccms:vod num="10" type="current" order="desc" by="time"}

• Parameter parsing：
  • num="10"Call 10 videos (can be customized as needed).
  • type="current"Limited to videos within the current section.
  • order="desc" by="time"Sort by publication date in descending order (latest videos first).

II. Extended Configuration Scenarios

1. Sort by view count (Popular Videos)

{maccms:vod num="10" type="current" order="desc" by="hits"}

2. Randomly play videos from this section

{maccms:vod num="10" type="current" order="rand"}

3. Only videos with a recommended value ≥ 5 will be displayed.

{maccms:vod num="10" type="current" order="desc" by="hits" level="5"}

(Please set the recommendation value in the video editing page in advance.)

4. Exclude the current video itself (to avoid duplicate recommendations)

{maccms:vod num="10" type="current" id="!{$maccms.vod.vod_id}"}

III. Front-end Display Example

<div class="current-videos">
  {maccms:vod num="10" type="current" order="desc" by="time"}
  <div class="video-card">
    <a href="{$vo.vod_play_url}">
      <img src="{$vo.vod_pic}" alt="{$vo.vod_name}">
      <h3>{$vo.vod_name}</h3>
      <p>更新至：{$vo.vod_serial}</p>
    </a>
  </div>
  {/maccms:vod}
</div>

<style>
.current-videos { display: grid; grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fill, minmax(200px, 1fr)); gap: 20px; }
.video-card img { width: 100%; height: 280px; object-fit: cover; border-radius: 8px; }
.video-card h3 { font-size: 16px; margin: 8px 0; }
.video-card p { color: #666; font-size: 14px; }
</style>

IV. Key Considerations

1. Column ID matching
   • Ensure that the template file is bound to the target section (for example, the section page template must correspond to the correct category ID).
   • When called on the playback page,type="current"It will automatically inherit the category to which the current video belongs.
2. performance optimization
   • When the video volume is large, it is recommended to run the process in the background. System → Planned Tasks Enable "Auto Generate Classification Cache".
   • Avoid excessive API calls on high-traffic pages (e.g., the homepage).numThe value should not be too large).
3. Cache cleanup
   • After modifying the template, please access the Apple CMS backend. Click "Clear Cache" in the top-right corner.Otherwise, the frontend may not be updated.

V. Advanced Application Scenarios

1. Combined Label Filtering

Retrieve videos from the current section that contain a specific tag (e.g., "4K" tag):

{maccms:vod num="10" type="current" tag="4K"}

2. Cross-column invocation (but prioritizes the current column)

If the current section contains fewer than 10 videos, additional data from other sections will be automatically supplemented:

{maccms:vod num="10" type="current,other" order="rand"}

3. Play sub-section video

If the current section has child categories, recursively call the videos for all child sections:

{maccms:vod num="10" type="current,child" order="desc" by="time"}

With the above configuration, you can flexibly meet diverse video invocation requirements for current sections – making it ideal for scenarios such as associated recommendations on playback pages or content populating on section pages.
