Kirby 2 Solved ✅

Hi. As I would like a certain subpage page be the source of my query, I’d like to know if a variable can be passed in the query “page” of a select field like this :

item:
  label: My Items
  type:  select
  options: query
  query: 
    page: the-variable-page
    fetch: visibleChildren
    value: '{{uid}}'
    text: '{{title}}'

No, you can’t pass a variable. You can pass a relative path, but only upwards in the tree, not downwards.

okay that’s too bad — would love to know if this could be extended easily ?
