Sitefinity Page Custom Fields Choices

sitefinity | 2024-01-20

Problem

The Custom Fields - Choices for Sitefinity page has only 1 choice of interface widget in v14.4 by default.

It will auto select Checkboxes. We can't easily select others like dropdown or radio button.

Solution

You will need to go to Advanced setting to do so.

The path is

ContentView -> Controls -> FrontendPages -> Views -> FrontendPagesCreate -> Sections -> CustomFieldSection -> Fields -> <field_name> -> RenderChoiceAs

And you will need to do it for FrontendPagesEdit to complete both setup.

Finally

Go to Page -> (Select a Page) -> Title & properties, then you will see it is now Radio Button instead of Checkboxes!
