Further to the video, I've discovered a major design flaw in the meta-field management system. Currently in ILG, it appears that there is no way for us to create a field where the admin users can add values to an existing list through the applicable meta field while they are adding data relevant to a project. I would like to create a searchable dropdown menu that pulls entries from the existing list, but gives the users the ability "+ add new" entries to that list without needing to go manually edit the list in meta-field management. Currently, I don't see a way of doing that.
A follow-up questions here:
Mel
Yes, this is just for lists managed through meta-field management. There will be no need to add new documents or projects on the fly. All new projects and documents will be manually added directly through their respective master lists.
Also, assuming we can easily add the requested feature. Is it also possible to remove the requirement of having any values assigned to a meta field? Currently, I'm forced to add at least one value to a meta field before I'm allowed to create it, but I'd like to create fields that will only have values created when the editor performs data capture analysis. Also, why are we requiring default values? I understand why this may be required for required fields, but if the field is not required, the default value should be optional as well.
Thanks,
Morgan
