Readme

Static Section

This extension is deprecated, and has been superseeded by limitsectionentries

Version 1.8.1

Static Sections simplify the process of editing field collections that should only exist once (or a limited number) in Symphony.

Installation

  1. Upload the 'static_section' folder found in this archive to your Symphony 'extensions' folder.

  2. Enable it by selecting the "Static Section" extension, choose Enable from the 'With Selected' dropdown menu, then click Apply.

  3. Bluprints > Sections and edit some section that you'll "Make this section static (i.e a single entry section)".

  4. (Optional) You can specify a different limit for you static section (i.e. limit the input to 4 entries)

Important Notes

  1. When adding to a previously created section, please ensure that the section contains only one entry.
    If added to a section that contains multiple entries, only the first entry in that section will be
    available to edit until the "Static Section" flag is removed from the section

  2. This extension does not modify the section data source output.
    As such if there are additional entries (more than one) in the section, these additional entries
    will still be output by Symphony when selecting the section as a data source.
