Blueprint Form Field twice

Kirby 2 Solved ✅

hi,

i was just playing around with some formfields. I tried to display current content of a field and show the override content of a field seperated like this:

  update:
    label:    Last Edit
    type:     datetime
    width:    1/2
    readonly: true
  update:
    label:    Will be overwritten by
    type:     datetime
    width:    1/2
    default:  now
    override: true
    time:
      interval: 1

this does not work… only the second field is shown in the panel… i think it is not possible to show two fields with the same name at the same time?

but how to display content of a field beside the new values?

That’s right, you can’t use the same field name twice. The only way to achieve that would be to save the current content of the field on save to a new field with another name using a page update hook.

 update_original:
    label:    Last Edit
    type:     datetime
    width:    1/2
    readonly: true
  update:
    label:    Will be overwritten by
    type:     datetime
    width:    1/2
    default:  now
    override: true
    time:
      interval: 1
