CraftCMS - show category of entries fields in content-type

I'm making a website for a bicycleshop. The shop has different 'frames' and you can 'build' your own bike by choosing a frame and the components you want (groupset, wheel, pedals, ...).

In the back-end I have a content-type 'components' that exist of:

  • component-category
  • component-title
  • component-price

In the content-type 'bike-types' you can add multiple components to the bike-type (frame).

I was wondering whether it's possible to show the category of a component in the overview of the components in a bike-type entry. Because now it's confusing that you've 'shimano 105' in the 'group' category and 'shimano 105' in the 'pedals' category.

Thanks a lot! Karlien

Solution

  • You could update that components title to be dynamic and have a secondary field for it's actual title.

    E.g. the title of the components could be {customTitle} - {category.title}

    You can do this when editing the entry type.
