Custom Types on Articles

Content Addition · Articles & templates · Created by KickedPrism1

Under the drop down menus for type on articles such as building, condition, conflict, etc., there should be an option to fill in a custom choice. 

   

I think having the option to type in your choices while still being allowed to select from the drop down menu if you desire will allow for more customization should people decide to do so.

The Team's Response

Hi! Custom types are already possible. Edit the article and under the "Sections" tab at the top, look for the custom sidebar fields. There, add the code --KEY::VALUE-- replacing it accordingly (for example: --Type::Cheese factory--).   That said, you're welcome to open a feature suggestion to add new types to the dropdown, and we'll be happy to look into it!

    Certainly don't want to lose the prompts, but allowing a free fill in addition could be helpful.

    Interesting suggestion. I use the article-specific prompts *a lot* and I would be lost without them, so I'm not sure how you would keep those in, but I suppose I'll wait and see.

    Someone said they though this was available with Grandmaster+ and I do not have that option, so that is not accurate.

    This is a good option for when no choice fits.

    It might be worth it, to have something like a cloud choice of previous choices used.

    I think that already is a feature with a grandmaster+ subscription, so I feel like we won't get that for free - understandably
