Content Type Attributes

You can specify the following attribute types for custom repository, custom user, and content type article properties. Knowledge Advanced uses the attribute name and description to label the resulting attribute field.

The following table describes the content type attributes.

Attribute	Description
Check Box	Select this to add a check box. For example, you could create a Subject Matter Expert node with check box attributes for each subject matter area that you define, and select those that are relevant when you define a new user.
Counter	Select this to increment a value for each instance of the attribute that you define, based on a specified prefix and start number. This is most commonly used for user and content type schema. For example, you could define a user attribute to assign an incremental value to each defined user based on the prefix `IQ` and the starting number `1000`. As users are defined, the application will automatically increment and assign the values, for example, `IQ1001`, followed by `IQ1002`.
