Hide/expand individual FieldtypeFiles file entries meta in admin

[psy]

AFAIK, a PageFiles field shows all files, including file descriptions, tags, etc. The visibility option is for the entire field.

It would be helpful to minimise the file list in admin to filename or custom fields, eg {basename} {modified}, only in the admin area similar to repeaters. A down arrow could expand individual file meta.

When a page has lots of attached files, it's cumbersome to scroll through all the files with descriptions & tags when the field visibility is "Open".

Sounds good. In the meantime it's easy to do with a little custom CSS and JS.

.InputfieldFileData { display:none; }
.data-open + .InputfieldFileData { display:block; }

 

$(document).on('click', '.InputfieldFileInfo', function() {
    $(this).toggleClass('data-open');
});

And the final piece of the puzzle, again thanks to  @Robin S, in site/templates/admin.php, see this post:

 

$wire->addHookAfter('AdminTheme::getExtraMarkup', function(HookEvent $event) {
    $scripts = wire('files')->render('inc/admin-tpl-hook');
    $parts = $event->return;
    $parts['head'] .= $scripts;
    $event->return = $parts;
});

@psy in admin.php you can do this (important!) before the final require() statement:

$config->scripts->add($config->urls->templates . 'admin.js');

I think this should be the default: https://github.com/processwire/processwire-requests/issues/552

And if anybody created an admin tweak for it anybody could install it with a single checkbox: https://github.com/baumrock/RockAdminTweaks
