Kirby Hidden Fields
Version 0.1 - Changelog
This field will allow you to select fields that should be hidden. It's already possible to do this in the blueprint, but with this plugin you can have unique visible/hidden fields on each page.
Let's say you have a simple checkbox on your panel page somewhere and you are not sure if it should be checked or not. A checkbox only have two states, checked or unchecked. It's impossible to know if it's unchecked because it should be false, or if it's unchecked because we are not sure if it should be checked or not.
With this plugin we can flag it as a hidden field to simply say, "I'm not sure about this field". In a snippet we can display a question mark icon or just a "?" for unknown data.
Hidden fields are in this case "hero" and "title".
Installation instructions - Be aware, it's not tested with multi language sites
To your blueprint fields you need to add two new fields, hiddenfields and hiddenstyle. I prefer to put the on top, even before the title field.
fields:
hiddenfields: hiddenfields
hiddenstyle: hiddenstyle
title:
label: Title
type: title
- You should now see a structure field in the panel page. Click "Add" or "Add the first entry".
- Now you see a list of all the fields in the current blueprint. Check the checkboxes on which fields you want to hide.
- Click "Add" when you have selected the checkboxes
- Save the page.
The fields you checked should now be 50% transparent.
If you need to use this in your templates/snippets you could use a model. That way you can manipulate the output. For example, if a field is hidden, return an empty string, or a question mark icon or just "?".
Be aware that disabled fields and hidden fields, both uses 50% transparency on the element. You can still use both. To see if the field is disabled, just try to edit it. If it's possible to edit it and it's transparent, it's a hidden field.
