Print templates

Print templates define custom display layouts for individual records. They are useful for generating printable views or structured summaries of complex records.

Open Templates from the sidebar (super-admin required).

Structure

A template is a JSON object with a sections array. Each section contains a content list of fields with their display width:

{
  "sections": [
    {
      "label": "Basic information",
      "collapsible": false,
      "content": [
        { "field": "sigla",       "width": "1/4" },
        { "field": "periodo",     "width": "3/4" },
        { "field": "descrizione", "width": "1/1" }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Section properties

Property	Type	Description
label	string	Section heading
type	string	"accordion" to render sub-panels instead of fields (see below)
plugin	string	Set to a plugin table name to show rows from that sub-table
collapsible	boolean	true to allow the section to be collapsed (not used with accordion)
collapsed	boolean	true to render the section collapsed by default
content	array	For core/plugin sections: array of { field, width } objects. For accordion: array of panel objects

Field width

Width is a fraction string. Valid values: "1/1", "1/2", "1/3", "2/3", "1/4", "3/4". Fields in a section should ideally sum to one full row.

Accordion sections

A section with "type": "accordion" renders its content as a series of collapsible sub-panels. Each panel has its own label and field list:

{
  "label": "Scheda tecnica",
  "type": "accordion",
  "content": [
    {
      "label": "Localizzazione",
      "open": true,
      "fields": [
        { "field": "sito",     "width": "1/2" },
        { "field": "ambiente", "width": "1/2" }
      ]
    },
    {
      "label": "Definizione",
      "open": false,
      "fields": [
        { "field": "categoria", "width": "1/3" },
        { "field": "tipo",      "width": "2/3" }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Panel property	Type	Description
label	string	Panel heading
open	boolean	true (default) to render the panel open; false to render it collapsed
fields	array	Array of { field, width } objects, same format as section content

Accordion sections are ideal for tables with many fields: group logically related fields into panels so the form stays manageable without hiding data.

Creating a template

1. Select the target table from the Table dropdown.
2. Click New template and give it a name.
3. Edit the JSON in the editor panel.
4. Click Save.

Applying a template to a record

In RecordView, the Templates dropdown in the toolbar lets the user switch between available templates and the default view.

Renaming and deleting templates
