Studio - Image image fields at a specific folder in File Manager

When in studio layouts we have a field for images. It would be very helpful to be able to create a setting for all image picker fields that lets us define what folder is opened in File Manager when it launches. This would allow us to improve image management when content is being edited by clients and even our team. It would be best to be able to define this for each image picker field, because in some cases we might be picking a BG image, in others we might be choosing a profile image and those might be housed in separate folders. A simple way to implement this might be to give us a setting tied to the image field that’s just a text field where we have to define the path, something like β€œ/assets/images/backgrounds”. This would get the job done and potentially not cause a lot of additional UI impact within Studio.

Forms - Advanced Validation

Currently Siteglide handles both server-side and client-side validation, but only for required: true/false. We could add further validation options, possibly following the same options pOS provides for forms: https://documentation.platformos.com/developer-guide/forms/validation#example One of the useful parts of that is that some fields can be conditionally validated, so if field a is filled in, field b becomes required etc. It would be useful if validation could also have an β€œexceptions” box where validation is disabled per form layout, in case there is an β€œadmin” form layout where less rules apply. Though this may be tricky to design security for. This helps handle cases where the validation is too strict for the flexibility with which forms need to be used sometimes, including across different layouts.

eCommerce - Faster / Easier bulk attribute management

Currently you can import attributes for a product with CSV, but it’s a slow process. You need to know product IDs already to create the attributes. And you need to create the attributes first in order to have IDs to give to the options. Option 1: Create an attribute template e.g. for β€œsize” for a clothing website, which can be defined in eCommerce settings and then used to create new attributes for products, either for all products, or those products already assigned to a selected category. This UI should create attributes on the products which are functional. In this example you could create a template for Men’s top sizes and a template for Women’s top sizes and then create attributes for all products in that category. Option 2: Improve CSV export / import for attributes so that it’s a one import process and attributes are automatically mapped to products (using external IDs) without needing to do it in phases to generate ids first. These ideas probably need development to make sure it’s suitable for editing attributes as well as adding them, and keeping track of which attributes were created via template and updating them when the template needs to change.
