Both the cmCampers and cmCamperDetail snippets work with the same data and allow you to include/exclude certain objects with properties. This page will give you an overview of the different placeholders you can use. In some chunks (eg tplImageItem) you should be able to use any of the parent chunks as well, for example camper details.

When using cmCampers, you should use the placeholders in your chunks CACHED to prevent weird behaviour. Example: [[+brand]] When using cmCamperDetails, you should use the placeholders prefixed with cm. (don't forget the dot), and make sure you are calling them UNCACHED. Example: [[!+cm.brand]]

Snippet specific: cmCamper

These are specific placeholders for the cmCamper snippet. Besides these, look at the object placeholders mentioned further down below to see what you can use from each object retrieved.

tplItem Chunk

Placeholder Description

owner Depends on your includeOwner property. When 1 it will output the result of the tplOwner property chunk, if not it will return the owner ID.
images Depending on the includeImages and numImages (>0) property this will be filled with the contents of the tplImageOuter property chunk, which in turn was filled with the contents of the tplImageItem property chunk for each image item.
