Creating a template ​

Templates are managed in the Templates view, accessible from the sidebar (super-admin required).

1. Select a table ​

Use the Table dropdown at the top to select which table the template applies to.

2. Create a new template ​

Click New template and enter a name (e.g. full-detail or compact). Names are lowercase, no spaces.

3. Edit the JSON ​

The template is a JSON object with a sections array. Each section has a label, optional plugin binding, and a content list of fields with widths.

json
{
  "sections": [
    {
      "label": "Identification",
      "collapsible": false,
      "content": [
        { "field": "sigla",   "width": "1/3" },
        { "field": "periodo", "width": "2/3" }
      ]
    },
    {
      "label": "Description",
      "collapsible": true,
      "collapsed": true,
      "content": [
        { "field": "descrizione",     "width": "1/1" },
        { "field": "interpretazione", "width": "1/1" }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Field widths ​

Valid width values: "1/1", "1/2", "1/3", "2/3", "1/4", "3/4". Fields in a section should ideally fill one row. A single full-width field uses "1/1"; two equal columns use "1/2"; three equal columns use "1/3".

Plugin sections ​

Set "plugin": "table_name" to render rows from a plugin sub-table instead of main-table fields.

Plugin fields in core sections ​

Plugin tables can be placed among core fields with { "plugin": "table_name", "field": "*", "width": "1/1" } ("*" = all plugin fields, or a single plugin field name). They are rendered as a multi-row table. See Print templates.

Accordion sections ​

Set "type": "accordion" to group fields into collapsible sub-panels within a section. Useful for tables with many fields:

json
{
  "label": "Scheda tecnica",
  "type": "accordion",
  "content": [
    {
      "label": "Localizzazione",
      "open": true,
      "fields": [
        { "field": "sito",     "width": "1/2" },
        { "field": "ambiente", "width": "1/2" }
      ]
    },
    {
      "label": "Definizione",
      "open": false,
      "fields": [
        { "field": "categoria", "width": "1/3" },
        { "field": "tipo",      "width": "2/3" }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Each panel has a label, an open flag (default true), and its own fields list with the same { field, width } format as a regular section. In the template editor, choose Accordion from the Section type dropdown and use Add panel to create sub-panels.

Editing the JSON directly ​

Use the Visual / JSON code switch in the editor header to paste or edit the whole template as JSON. Switching back to Visual requires valid JSON.

4. Save ​

Click Save. The server validates field names, plugin names and widths; any errors are listed above the editor. The template becomes immediately available in RecordView's Templates dropdown for that table.

5. Applying the template ​

In RecordView, click the Templates button in the header to switch the display layout to this template.
