Question

Is it possible to render a meta type field as a choice field?

For example, I’d like editors to choose an option from a list of available items. There is no control like this, but I seem to be able to do this with a Data Reference type, but I don’t know where I need to add the values?

Answer 1

Use the Selector widget.

• When editing your field, go to the “advanced” tab.
• Click on the button to change the widget type, which currently contains “TextBox”.
• Delete the TextBox widget.
• Add a new widget, the Composite.Widgets.Selector.
• Specify a function to return the options.
