A question about the objects field

Hi everyone; haven’t really had a play with the structured object field until now, and just wanted to run a few things past folks on here.

Firstly, am I right in saying that there’s no way to allow adding multiple objects for the one field?

And secondly, do we think that there is scope for an object field to have this feature, and to also take advantage of the ‘cards’ layout option currently available for pages? I have various projects where I need to add multiple data sets and keep a card layout for the client, but creating separate pages for this is unnecessary and a bloated approach. I think it’d be great to be able to use object blocks to achieve this which is visually much more accessible than using a structured field which can become too busy if there is a fair bit of data.

For this we have the Structure field: Structure | Kirby CMS

Card layout isn’t currently possible with the Structure field. It might be int he future. But it’s a hard line recreating every feature of subpages with structure fields. It leads to all kinds of problems, performance drag etc. where subpages would be the far superior way to deal with this kind of content.

And you can combine the structure field with the object field (instead of using a nested structure)

Thanks for the fast reply; yes I’m currently using the structure field, was just hoping to take advantage of the card layout and it seemed the object field might be an easier route for that.
I was just hoping to be able to display it all in one neat card (in this case we’re just talking a file and some text fields) but I understand there’s other complications to consider as you say.

Thanks, yes would allow me to add multiples, but wouldn’t give me the card layout unfortunately.
