Select image from children page - Kirby Panel

Kirby 2 Questions 🤔
1

Hello,

  homeimg:
    label: Home Image
    type: image

I’ve made a image select field in the parent page. But, I want to select an image that’s uploaded in one of the child pages. Is this possible?

Best wishes

If you only want to fetch the children of one particular page, you can use the query option.
If you need to query several subpages, you can use the JSON API

For both options, check out the docs: https://getkirby.com/docs/cheatsheet/panel-fields/select

Another option would be to create a custom Panel field: https://getkirby.com/docs/developer-guide/panel/fields

Or the Controlled List plugin: https://github.com/rasteiner/controlledlist

Thank you for your reply @texnixe

I now have made up this. But it’s not working. Do you have any idea how to get it working?

category:
 label: Category
 type: select
 options: query
 query:
  page: pages
  template: project-detail
  fetch: images
  value: '{{filename}}'
  text: '{{filename}}'

You can only pass a single page to fetch images from, not a collection, so pages is not a keyword you can use for the page option. That’s why I said, if you need to fetch images from more than one page, you will have to consider one of the other options I suggested above.
