Field types
Width
This lets you define the width of a block as well as left and right padding. This field simply outputs three sets of classes which can be defined when setting the field up.
Author Instructions
This lets you output markdown instead of a field, which is useful when you have a Matrix block that doesn’t have any fields.
Categories (multiple groups)
A Categories input that lets you select multiple Category groups.
Ancestors
An Entries input that only shows the ancestors of the current Entry.
Search Fields
Like the Tags input, but for Entries and Categories (without the auto-creation feature).
Disabled Fields
The same as regular fields, but disabled. Useful for situations where you want to integrate with a third party API and store that information in a field but don’t want the user to change it.
The following field types are currently supported:
- Entries
- Categories
- Lightswitch
- Number
- PlainText
- Dropdown
Widgets
Roll Your Own
A simple widget that lets you assign a template to load from your site templates folder. Go nuts.
Config variables

Default: true
Set this to true to force all instruction links to open in new a window/tab.
Miscellaneous
Download File
A controller action that will force download a file.
The id
parameter is required and must be a valid Asset id.
