InputfieldSelector::set() method

Set property

  • Use this for setting properties like parent, collapsed, required, columnWidth, etc.
  • You can also set properties directly via $inputfield->property = $value.
  • If setting an attribute (like name, id, etc.) this will work, but it is preferable to use the Inputfield::attr() method.
  • If setting any kind of "class" it is preferable to use the Inputfield::addClass() method.

Example

// Set a value for a property
$item->set('foo', 'bar');

// Set a property value directly
$item->foo = 'bar';

// Set a property using array access
$item['foo'] = 'bar';

Usage

$inputfieldSelector->set(string $key, mixed $value);

“We were really happy to build our new portfolio website on ProcessWire! We wanted something that gave us plenty of control on the back-end, without any bloat on the front end - just a nice, easy to access API for all our content that left us free to design and build however we liked.” —Castus, web design agency in Sheffield, UK
