Access to the original bean from a Facetbean in freemarker?

[yvesv...@gmail.com]

Can I access (or retrieve) the original content bean from a facetbean in freemarker? Or do I also need to add the orignal bean to the request?

I want to use the profile picture, short description and fullname from the Author bean. But these don't seem to be available on the Author facetbean in freemarker. And I can't find to way to access the original Author bean in freemarker from the facetbean. E.g. ${item.canonicalBean} doesn't resolve to anything.

Thanks!

If in your content bean you have something like

public HippoBean getLinkedBean() {
return getLinkedBean("myproject:linkednodename", HippoBean.class);
}

then you can access it in FTL. 'myproject:linkednodename' depends on
your setup of course

HTH,
