Question

I have a Dexterity-based content type with the IRelatedItems behavior enabled using:

<property name="behaviors">
  <element value="plone.app.relationfield.behavior.IRelatedItems" />
</property>

I want to render the list of related items on my template but I don’t know how to do it.

Any hints?

Answer 1

Found it: first the custom view has to be a display form, so it must derive from plone.directives.dexterity.DisplayForm:

class MyCustomView(dexterity.DisplayForm):
    grok.context(IMyContentType)
    grok.require('zope2.View')

Then you can use something like this on your page template:

<fieldset id="related-items" tal:condition="context/relatedItems">
    <legend i18n:translate="">Related items</legend>
    <tal:relateditems tal:content="structure view/w/IRelatedItems.relatedItems/render" />
</fieldset>
