You can see your options in eznodeviewfunctions.php, they are:

$keyArray = array( array( 'object', $object->attribute( 'id' ) ),
                           array( 'node', $node->attribute( 'node_id' ) ),
                           array( 'parent_node', $node->attribute( 'parent_node_id' ) ),
                           array( 'class', $object->attribute( 'contentclass_id' ) ),
                           array( 'class_identifier', $node->attribute( 'class_identifier' ) ),
                           array( 'view_offset', $offset ),
                           array( 'viewmode', $viewMode ),
                           array( 'remote_id', $object->attribute( 'remote_id' ) ),
                           array( 'node_remote_id', $node->attribute( 'remote_id' ) ),
                           array( 'navigation_part_identifier', $navigationPartIdentifier ),
                           array( 'depth', $node->attribute( 'depth' ) ),
                           array( 'url_alias', $node->attribute( 'url_alias' ) ),
                           array( 'class_group', $object->attribute( 'match_ingroup_id_list' ) ),
                           array( 'state', $object->attribute( 'state_id_array' ) ),
                           array( 'state_identifier', $object->attribute( 'state_identifier_array' ) ),
                           array( 'section', $object->attribute( 'section_id' ) ),
                           array( 'section_identifier', $sectionIdentifier ) );
(...)
$keyArray[] = array( 'parent_class', $parentClassID );
$keyArray[] = array( 'parent_class_identifier', $parentClassIdentifier );

Plenty of possibilities ;)

André, thanks for the hint and link to the PHP source.

But i don't see, which of the options fits my situation here and how i should set up the block in the override.ini . Did i oversee an option? In particular, i dont' see, if e.g. "url_alias" can help me here.

By the way: Personally, i think, one should need need to find and read a PHP source code to find out how to "use" (in this case: configure & design) an ez Installation. The docs should be up to date and complete.

But, thanks anyway :)

They are, it's just easier for me to lookup the source code.
The doc on this is here under node/view/*.tpl.

As for your original question, it sound to me like you should create a new class. Even if it has the same attributes like some other class you obviously present it in another way, so a different object type makes most sense (IMHO) and probably makes it a lot easier for your editors to deal with this as well.

Class inheritance would help here, but I don't see us getting time to implement that anytime soon.

Are you willing to do a kernel hack for this?

I remember doing a hack to add sub_tree to the Match options but I'm not finding the code. If you're interested then I'll keep looking.

This is what I'm talking about:

Something similar can be done for name.

Hi,

Like André, the best approach would be to create custom class. In terms of design of content in eZ Publish, it's the best practice.

If really you do not want to do that, perhaps you can write some custom code in a content edit handler to assign a custom section or a custom object state depending on your condtions (the name News...) but it's longer to implement.

Cheers

There is a new and improved version of the hack mentioned by Steve. It's especially handy for multilingual sites.
