Field tv

Version: Pro.

Why this type

Picker for template variable hybrid chunk. Front output [[*{$tv.name}]]. Pro bridge between PB section and resource TV.

When to use

• Section reads resource TV chosen by editor
• Shared hero image TV across templates
• Dev tooling which TV to expose

Tips

TV value is not duplicated in the section data. Inline upload in section is image or file.

Similar types

• chunk pick chunk by name
• relation pick resource not TV
