Include template name in admin page list

[Lance O.]

It would be great to have the ability to add the template name in the list of fields to display in the admin Page List. This would be helpful on sites where there are a lot of pages and templates.

I wonder if this feature could be easily added to this module:

So you are saying, something like this?: Edit: No. see next post for clarification.

Admin

Setup

Templates

basic-page

home

my-other-tpl

search-tpl

etc-tpl

Those would have to be child pages of Templates, I believe..The module would create a new child page under Templates in the Admin tree whenever a new template was created. Just thinking out loud here...

To clarify, viewing the list of pages within PW typically looks like this:

About Us 3 | edit | view | new | move

       Our Board edit | view | new | move

       Our Leadership edit | view | new | move

       Our Partners edit | view | new | move

I'd like the ability to add the template name next to the page title, using the List of fields to display in the admin Page List from the Advanced tab of template.

About Us (template-a) 3 | edit | view | new | move

       Our Board  (template-b) edit | view | new | move

       Our Leadership (template-c) edit | view | new | move

       Our Partners (template-d) edit | view | new | move

Aah, I see what you mean.

Have you tried adding "template" there? Works for me already. Doesn't look exactly like what you posted above, though, more like this:

About us, template-a 3 | edit | view | new | move

    Our Board, template-b | edit | view | new | move

    (etc.)

[Lance O.]

Facepalm. "template" didn't show up in the You may enter one or more of these fields listing, so I didn't even try, but it is exactly what I needed.

[kongondo]

Hehe, wanted to try that but since the form says "field" names...I thought nah

Yet another reason to love ProcessWire!

You can also use "subfields" like template.name, template.id ... maybe not a good example but you get the idea, most or all that can be also used in selectors like created_users_id etc.
