Define dependencies between fields based on their states and values. Conditional Fields is basically an user interface for the States API, plus the ability to hide fields on certain conditions when viewing content.
The Conditional Fields module allows you to manage sets of dependencies between fields. When a field is "dependent", it will only be available for editing and displayed if the state of the "dependee" field matches the right condition. When editing a node (or any other entity type that supports fields, like users and categories), the dependent fields are dynamically modified with the States API.
You can, for example, define a custom “Article teaser" field that is shown only if a "Has teaser" checkbox is checked.
Limitations and Known Issues
- Conditional Fields, for now, supports only core fields and widgets as dependee fields. Fields from other modules might work, but probably won't. Dependent fields, though, can be of any type.
- Install this module using the official Backdrop CMS instructions.
Users with the "administer dependencies" permission can administer dependencies at admin/structure/dependencies.
