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
.

_disable_add
is true
.
