Make and apply changes to global view in UI across all content

Story:

As a content manager, I want to be able to make changes to the UI, such as widening columns and adding/removing columns

AND I expect these changes to be applied globally for all content views in all schemas

AND I expect these changes to be retained even if I log out


Issue description:

The Squidex UI currently seems to be missing an option that allows a user to save a view when they make changes to the UI in one content page. For example:

  • Adding / removing columns in the content view
  • Widening columns to show more details due to long content names

Although these changes can be made, they need to be made on each individual content page, rather than being changed globally for all content pages in all schemas.

Would it be possible to have an option which allows users to modify and save their content view as described above?

if you go to the settings in the schema you can define the fields globally for all users (but not their width).

You can also remove or add fields by yourself for a specific schema (there is a small gear icon) and the column width is also saved in the settings. There could be a bug, but it has been implemented.

Thanks for this. Is there a way how we can define the fields in the schemas for the users in bulk during a one-time operation? This is so that we don’t need to review all schema UI settings manually for each schema.

No, sorry. You have to write a tool for this yourself.
