Last updated: Dec 6, 2022
Any idea why this isnt working? I can add a image, but not title or subtitle
export default {
  title: 'Columns',
  name: 'columns',
  type: 'array',
  of: [
    {
      name: 'columnTitle',
      type: 'string',
    },
    {
      name: 'columnSubTitle',
      type: 'subTitle',
    },
     {
      name: 'columnImage',
      type: 'image',
    },
  ],
};

Hey!

I think you should try doing string instead of "SubTitle"
Dec 6, 2022, 11:47 AM
And tell me if it works or not
Dec 6, 2022, 11:47 AM
even tho i have a object called 
subTitle
?
Dec 6, 2022, 11:47 AM
Ya, Object name doesn't matter

This didnt work

Data type is too important
Dec 6, 2022, 11:48 AM
export default {
  title: 'Columns',
  name: 'columns',
  type: 'array',
  of: [
    {
      title: 'Title',
      name: 'columnTitle',
      type: 'string',
    },
    {
      title: 'Sub Title',
      name: 'columnSubTitle',
      type: 'string',
    },
    {
      name: 'columnImage',
      type: 'image',
    },
  ],
};

Is there any specific reason for using array instead of Document?

Creating a “Page builder”
Dec 6, 2022, 11:49 AM
not really for the entire page, but a section where the user can customize themselves
Dec 6, 2022, 11:50 AM
Try doing document like this
Dec 6, 2022, 11:50 AM
The purpose of a page builder is a little different of what you sent!
Dec 6, 2022, 11:51 AM
Look i just want you to try
Dec 6, 2022, 11:51 AM
I tried it, it worked the way 
document
should work
Dec 6, 2022, 11:52 AM
So field type as a document is working, right?
Dec 6, 2022, 11:52 AM
Yes
Dec 6, 2022, 11:52 AM
Okk
Dec 6, 2022, 11:53 AM

Dec 6, 2022, 11:54 AM
