New inputs configuration and more

November 25th, 2021 | Major

This release introduces configuration for inputs separate from the naming conventions. It's all backwards compatible, and we have a migration guide to start changing your sites over. There are a number of new inputs and options for each.

Features:

• Color inputs have new format and alpha options, falling back to the naming convention if these options are not set.
• Hiding inputs is now set with hidden in an _inputs entry rather than an option, since it’s available for any input type. This key also supports a string where the input is hidden based on the value of another input. This can start with a ! to reverse the value.
• Object structures are now supported. These allow you to configure objects between an empty state (null) and a selection of object formats. Useful if you have components with a limited number of sub-components.
• Two new inputs: Range number input and a Switch boolean input. These are only available with the new inputs config. More input types coming soon, contact support if you have specific requests.
• Comments now support a limited set of Markdown: links, bold, italic, subscript, superscript and inline code elements are allowed. Links in this block also support Editor Links.
• Better object previews with configurable text and subtext.
• Select and multiselect inputs now have the value_key option to set how values are saved, and the text_key option for setting how values are displayed.
• Added disabled input type for visible, uneditable text values.
• step, min and max options for number inputs.
• Configuration for changing the label and type of an input separate from the naming conventions.

Fixes:

• Number inputs are invalid if they don't contain numbers.
• Corrected the textarea input naming convention from text to textarea.
• Clone page is now hidden if _disable_add is true.
• Webhooks now fail if they have no site attached.
