Hi there,

I got a very long blueprint that I would like to structure into modules. However I just know that you can build fields to reuse in blueprints but I would like to pack a bunch of fields into a file and reuse that over different blueprints.

Is this possible?

Example: Blueprint Home

```yml
fields:
  headline:
    label: Überschrift
    type: text
  text:
    label: Text
    type: yakme
  event_location:
    label: Veranstaltungsort
    type: text
    icon: map-marker
    width: 1/2
  event_street:
    label: Strasse
    type: text
    icon: map-marker
    width: 1/2
  ...
  ..
  a lot more event infos...

```

Restructured into: event.yml and then I would like to use it as:

```yml
fields: 
   Eventinfo: event

```

Is something like this possible? I tried it out and get errors. If not then what is your approach to don’t lose track in blueprints. They can get very long and because indentation is important you get so much surface for indentation errors.

Have you tried using the [global definitions](https://getkirby.com/docs/panel/blueprints/global-field-definitions)?

I think that he knows and that that’s exactly what he 's talking about when saying:

Unfortunately, you can only have single fields, not a bunch of them. I think that’s a feature that has been planned for a while, but no ETA yet.

Okay thanks for letting me know ❤

When your blueprints gets longer it is really hard to not get lost ^^ looking forward to that feature

I understand the problem, using global single field definitions is at least better than nothing, though.
