Hey guysI have two schemas marketing and adBanner in simple terms marketing is an array of adBanners. I have defined the schemas as bellow.
but when i compile and run i can only see adBanner but not marketing section. When i debug it says
Unknown type: adBanner. Valid types are: marketing, array, block, boolean, datetime, date, document, email, file, geopoint, image, number, object, reference, slug, string, telephone, text and url
Any explanation/fixes for this.
Cheers
_export_ default { title: "Marketing",
name: "marketing",
type: "array",
of: [{ type: "adBanner" }],};
_export_ default { title: "Ad Banner",
name: "adBanner",
type: "document",
fields: [
{ title: "Promo Banner type",
name: "promoType",
type: "string",
},
{ title: "Promo Heading",
name: "promoHeading",
type: "string",
},
{ title: "Promo Text",
name: "promoText",
type: "array",
of: [{ type: "block" }], },
{ title: "Affiliate marketing link",
name: "promoLink",
type: "url",
},
{ title: "Promo product image",
name: "promoImage",
type: "image",
},
],
};

Want to share your schema file?

import createSchema from "part:@sanity/base/schema-creator";
// Then import schema types from any plugins that might expose them
import schemaTypes from "all:part:@sanity/base/schema-type";
import story from "./stroy";
import author from "./author";
import chapter from "./chapter";
import artworks from "./artworks";
import adBanner from "./adBanner";
import marketing from "./marketing";
// Then we give our schema to the builder and provide the result to Sanity
_export_ default createSchema({ // We name our schema
name: "default",
// Then proceed to concatenate our document type
// to the ones provided by any plugins that are installed
types: schemaTypes.concat([
/* Your types here! */
story,
author,
chapter,
artworks,
adBanner,
marketing,
]),
});

for some reason simple schema which includes type array does not work its weird
_export_ default { title: "Marketing",
name: "marketing",
type: "array",
of: [{ type: "string" }],};got this straight from the docs still not working

hm yeh, I think that might need to be an object with an array inside it

i think i tried that too but not sure about the syntax entirely can you provide me an example using the above schema if no trouble?

Thanks for the help figured it out its due to nested arrays so wrapping it out in a object works. I didnt realise both schema types were arrays.cheers
