page reference, "new pages created from field", but filled out with more than just title?

[chcs]

In the page reference field, one can create new pages if they enable that option. However, the "new" page only gets the title field filled out.

Q: Is there a way to expand on this so a user can fill in more fields from the new page? Either in-line or via modal?

I think the only available way built in is to use ASM inputfield with page fields and the setting becomes available in the Input Tab in the field configuration.

Oh I didn't see that option in ASM, I've been using the typeahead. Not a bad, but requires a save before one can edit.

The Page Field Edit Links module supports this.

[OLSA]

If inside page field setup is checked "Allow new pages to be created from field", there is option to create new page in modal window using hook method inside "site/ready.php".
Please note to write page field name inside if statement.

// ready.php

$this->addHookAfter('InputfieldPage::renderAddable', function ($event){

	$inputfield = $event->object;

	// please note: inside if statement need to write page field name!
	if ($inputfield->name == 'your_page_field_name') //<= here
		{
		$link = $this->wire('config')->urls->admin . 'page/add/?parent_id=' . $inputfield->parent_id . '&modal=1';
		$out = '<p><a href="' . $link . '" target="_blank" class="pw-modal pw-modal-large">
				   <i class="fa fa-plus-circle"></i> Create New</a></p>';
		$event->return = $out;
		return $event->return;
		}
	});

Regards.
