Grouping pages by select field

Kirby 3 Solved ✅

I group pages in a navigation by a select field (‘category_type’). <?= $group ?> displays the text, how can I display the value?

<?php
  $groups = $level1->children()->listed()->groupBy('category_type');
  foreach($groups as $group => $items):
?>
<ul>
  <li><?= $group ?></li>
  <?php foreach($items as $item): ?>
  <li><a href="<?= $item->url() ?>"><?= $item->title() ?></a></li>
  <?php endforeach ?>
</ul>
<?php endforeach ?>

Thanks!

Which value? $group is already the value stored in the content file?

Oh, sorry, should have posted the select field blueprint:

category_type:
  label: Art
  type: select
  options:
    category_type_1: Standard

It display “category_type_1”, not “Standard”.

I see, so the text label from the panel. But that is only available to you via the blueprint, or you create a category map (an array of key-value pairs) in your config, which would probably be preferable as you wouldn’t have to read the complete blueprint.

Getting it from blueprint:

Ah, ok. I thought I was missing something like $group->value().

That helped, thanks Sonja!
