A content type in CONTENIDO is a place where authors can enter or select data to display on the frontend page.
CONTENIDO comes with several content types for different purposes. Content types are defined and set in the specific module and have two display modes: the output mode for the frontend and the edit mode for the backend.
Every content type has it's unique content ID. That gives you the possibility to use multiple same content types within the same article but with different content.
The module code parser detects content types by it's short notation. This is like accessing an array entry: CONTENT_TYPE[ID]. If you define the content ID twice or more, that content type will manage the same content.
Below you find a list with all content types. Content types are stored in database in the table "type".
