The view template body cascade is a cascade used by the default view template to choose the template for displaying the tiddler body.

The default view template body cascade consists of:

1. If the tiddler title starts with any of a list of known system tiddler prefixes, use the template $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/body/code to display the body as preformatted code
2. If the tiddler has the field plugin-type set to import then use the template $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/body/import which displays the custom import user interface
3. If the tiddler has the field plugin-type then use the template $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/body/plugin to display the plugin information badge
4. If the tiddler has the field hide-body set to yes then use the template $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/body/blank to hide the body
5. Otherwise, use the default template $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/body/default

You can see the current settings for the view template body cascade in $:/ControlPanel under the Info -> Advanced -> Cascades -> View Template Body tab.
