Tip: An Overlooked Way to Order Fields
Clicking on the group name will show the list of fields assigned to this group.
Fields groups have following properties:
- Name – Name of field group displayed in Control Panel
- Short Name – The short name of field group, used in Fluid fields when looping through the group’s fields
- Description – Description of field group
- Fields – The fields can be reordered by drag and drop, and the fields order will be respected on Entry Publish page (unless Publish Layouts are used) as well as in Fluid field custom field groups.
