Metadata inheritance - Fluid Topics - Latest

The topics included in an FTML map inherit the map's metadata. In the same way, child topics inherit metadata from their parent topics. If a topic inherits metadata that it already had, the topic takes on both values (its own and the inherited one).

In all cases, metadata keys beginning with the prefix ft: is not inherited. This includes the following metadata keys:

• ft:title
• ft:locale
• ft:baseId
• ft:clusterId
• ft:openMode
• ft:originUrl
• ft:editorialType
• ft:lastEdition
• ft:description
• ft:prettyUrl

Example

A topic has the metadata product=foo and inherits the metadata product=bar from the document. As a result, its new metadata is product=foo,bar.
