Entries Fieldtype

Create relationships with other entries in one or more collections. It's not very much like online dating because you can create and link the entries on the fly without leaving the page.

Overview

Use this fieldtype to create a one-way relationship with entries of any collection in your site. It's delightfully simple.

Data Structure

This fieldtype will store an array of ids to the selected entries. They will be augmented in your Antlers templates to give you access to each entry's data.

related_entries:
- 12f9be1f-a12e-4680-b769-639d2d1f1d14
- ea48926d-bf67-4d45-9420-9627a31c37fb

Templating

Loop through the entries and do anything you want with the data.

<ul>
{{ related_entries }}
<li><a href="{{ url }}">{{ title }}</a></li>
{{ /related_entries }}
</ul>
<ul>
<li><a href="/look-at-this">Look at This!</a></li>
<li><a href="/look-at-that">Wait, Look at That!</a></li>
</ul>
