I am using Laravel Herd for my development platform. Just installed Kirby 4 and am following the YouTube presentation of the Kirby CMS Content folder. Following along with the YouTube presentation, I am using the plainkit sample to get familiar with the Content folder and the subfolders, i.e. Home, About, Contact, etc. I created a new About folder and a corresponding about.txt file and included several fields. Only the Title field is displaying:
I did some looking around and could not find another similar issue that others may have reported. Any help on troubleshooting this issue would be appreciated.
Kirby only renders what you tell it to render. It would not make sense to auto-render fields through some magic, because you alone will know how your content should be rendered.
The plainkit has only one template (default.php) and this template only renders the title.
In a real-world scenario, you would create different templates for page types with different fields.
You might want to check out the Starterkit to get a better understanding of how blueprints, content files and templates play together. Or watch a few more videos…
Thanks for your reply. I went back through the Content Folder video - and I did not see any examples of a browser page showing anything other than the title. I will continue checking out other videos, e.g. the Templates video to learn how this all fits together. Thanks for your guiidance.
