Where is the "Custom Types" option on the browser?

[raphael.fernandes.en (Raphael Fernandes)]

The option to use "custom types" is not present in the browser. Can anyone tell why? I would like to use custom types without slicemachine.

Hi @raphael.fernandes.en

Welcome to the Prismic community.

In your case, you have chosen to start a Slice Machine project for Next or Nuxt.
Your custom types are manageable In Slice machine, and once you build something on Slice Machine, you can push it Prismc, and then you can see it there.

Here is a screenshot of what I have:

If that doesn't help you, please share with me your repository name to be able to investigate further.

Best,

Hi, what about if I'm not using Slice Machine where could I find the Custom Type Page?

Hi @daryl.estrada

Welcome to the community!

If you're not using Slice Machine, the Custom Type page should be accessible from the left menu on your Prismic repo. Depending on your page builder interface, it would be above settings like on this screenshot:

Or the second icon after Documents, like on this screenshot:

Let us know if you need more help!

I have this field type Select, Am I right that I should go to Custom Type to edit the options of that field?

it's like this on /prismic/center.json

"vv_states_override": {
			"type": "Group",
			"config": {
				"fields": {
					"state_name": {
						"type": "Select",
						"config": {
							"options": [
								"Arkansas",
								"California",
								"Connecticut",
								"Delaware",
								"Maryland",
								"Michigan",
								"Missouri",
								"New York",
								"North Carolina",
								"Oklahoma",
								"Oregon",
								"Texas",
								"Virgina",
								"Washington"
							],
							"label": "State Name"
						}
					}
				},
				"label": "Virtual Visit States Override"
			}
		},

I want to change 'Virgina' to 'Virginia', If I was using slice machine I could just save the edited json file and prismic push but I'm not using slice machine, Am I correct to edit it on the Custom Type?

[Ezekiel (Ezekiel Ravidat)]

Yes, absolutely, you are correct to do it on the Custom Type page!

I would just recommend using the visual builder, not editing the JSON file directly. So you can do that in here:

And you should be able to make your changes easily

Note: if you're not a developer, be very careful changing custom types, as it can break your production website.
