Define dependencies between fields based on their states and values.
Conditional Fields for Drupal 7 is an user interface to the new States API, plus the ability to modify fields appearance and behavior on certain conditions when viewing content.
Description
Conditional Fields allows you to manage sets of dependencies between fields. When a field is “dependent”, it will only be available for editing and displayed if the state of the “dependee” field matches the right condition.
When editing a node (or any other entity type that supports fields, like users and categories), the dependent fields are dynamically modified with the States API.
You can, for example, define a custom “Article teaser" field that is shown only if a "Has teaser" checkbox is checked.
- Drupal 7 version (3.x): 7.x-3.x is currently in development. It is a complete rewrite of the module that leverages the new entities system and the States API. Not ready for use on production sites yet. Since 2011-Aug-10, there is an upgrade path from Drupal 6. IMPORTANT: read the documentation before attempting the upgrade!
- Drupal 6 version (2.x): 6.x-2.0 is fairly stable. Requires CCK.
Installation and Usage
Please read the Conditional Fields documentation.
Notes
- Supported dependee fields are for now only core fields (D7) or CCK widgets (D6). That is: select, checkbox, radio and text. Other field types might work but are not supported. Follow this issue for ongoing development.
