Set title for custom type

[jilbert21 (Jilbert)]

Hi there,

I just started using Prismic and still trying to find everything. I created a new custom type called Projects where I would like to specify some project details. It is a basic custom type, every project has a UID, Image, Title, TextField, URL.

I created two entries and expected the Title field to be visible in the overview page as name, but instead it is the TextField which is shown in the overview. I scrolled through the docs for half a day but I cannot find how to specify this in de model.json.

I would like for the Project entries to see the title as name in the overview.

Kind regards,
Jilbert

Hi @jilbert21 ,

Welcome to the community

The display name that you see here is populated from the last edited text field. (The title field is also considered a text field)

So the way to make sure the display name is what is entered in your title field is to click save as soon as you populate the title field.

Alternatively, you can edit the display name directly on the top left of the page builder screen.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks.
