redaxo-mform

Building REDAXO module inputs with MForm – MForm::factory(), all add*Field() methods (text, textarea, select, radio, checkbox, link, media, hidden, headline, description, alert, html), wrapper elements (fieldset, column, tab, collapse, accordion, modal, inline, conditional), setters (setLabel, setAttributes, setOptions, setSqlOptions, setTooltipInfo, setFull, setSize, setMultiple, setDefaultValue), and how the form is rendered via show(). Use when the user writes or edits module INPUT PHP, uses MForm to build a backend form, or asks how to add a specific field type to a REDAXO module.

Dynamic list / repeater fields in REDAXO modules with MForm – addFlexRepeaterElement(), addRepeaterElement(), nested repeaters, supported widget types inside repeaters (custom-link, media, imagelist, medialist, linklist, radio, checkbox, color-swatch, modal), the __MFRID__ placeholder for unique IDs per row, reading repeater values in OUTPUT PHP with rex_var_custom_medialist / json_decode, and the full list of supported vs. unsupported widget types. Use when the user wants a dynamic list of rows in a module input, uses addRepeaterElement or addFlexRepeaterElement, or asks how to add an image gallery / team list / FAQ with variable rows to a REDAXO module.

Reading MForm field values in REDAXO module OUTPUT PHP – MFormOutputHelper::createLinkData(), normalizeLinkData(), normalizeRepeaterItems(), getCustomLinkUrl(), getCustomUrl(), prepareCustomLink(), decoding repeater JSON, working with customlink_url / customlink_text / customlink_target / customlink_class / type / article_id / metadata. Use when the user writes the OUTPUT section of a REDAXO module that uses MForm, processes link values, displays repeater rows, or needs to resolve redaxo:// URLs to actual hrefs.

Advanced MForm widget fields – Custom-Link (addCustomLinkField, addCustomLinkMultipleField, addMFormLinkField), Media picker (addMediaField, addMFormMediaField), Medialist, Imagelist, Linklist, ColorSwatch (addColorSwatchField). Covers all data-* attributes for controlling which link types are enabled (intern/extern/media/mailto/tel), ylink table links, media type restrictions, preview options, and how each widget stores and returns its value. Use when the user adds a link picker, media picker, image gallery, link list, or color swatch to a REDAXO module or YForm form.

Using MForm-provided YForm value types in YForm table definitions and YForm forms – custom_link, custom_link_multi, color_swatch, imagelist, medialist, linklist value types. Covers how to add these fields programmatically (rex_yform_manager_table_api::setTableField) and via tableset JSON, their stored value formats, how to read values via YOrm datasets, and ytemplates used for rendering in the backend. Use when the user adds a custom_link, color_swatch, imagelist, medialist, or linklist field to a YForm table, uses these field types in a YForm form, or asks how to render MForm widget values stored in a YForm database column.
