Poor customization possibilities on entry pages (Summary/Details...)
Expected behavior
TODO:
It would be perfect to have an equivalent of Smart Views, but for entry pages (like Summary/Details), and it seems it's not possible after some experimentation. Indeed right now I find Summary/Details very limited, as it's very hard to really customize it. The idea would be, when I click on an entry line in Table view, to be able to get crazy on Summary page, based on entry data.
For example, having a link with a text, based on entry data (<a href="http://some-link-computed-from-data.com">Some text from data</a>
) does not seem possible. I have to create to separate custom fields, set one into link, and display them both.
Or, create a completely custom form (for example, with inputs with default values computed from data, right now I am limited with custom actions fields, because their default value does not seem to be able to derive from data)
So something like multiple custom "Smart Widgets", (similar as Smart Views) that could be placed in Summary/Details pages, with entry data accessible in them, would be very nice.
##Â Actual behavior
"Smart Widgets" do not exist for entry details pages. There is only Smart Views to customize entries lists.
Hi @Clement-Bresson, thank you for the feedback. We really understand your needs, and we definitely want to provide more flexibility (especially in the Summary View). But I cannot give you an ETA for such improvements right now.
Hi @arnaudbesnier , thank you for this quick answer, I understand. Can you let me know when such a feature is available ? Keep up with this great work !
