Hello there,
I have a situation in which I would like to change some content attributes' values directly in the database, without calling core eZ Publish functions. I'm talking about integer-type values, easy to manage, and cache clearing is not really an issue functionally, these values will have to take effect periodically, when cache expires, for sorting purposes.
Should I expect any anomalies when I directly change <b>sort_key_int</b> and <b>data_int</b> fields values in the <b>ezcontentobject_attribute</b> table for this given attribute?
Greets,Piotrek
