Basefield Display

Security covered Under active development 68 sites

Part of the Base ecosystem · 5 projects

This module makes entity base fields, such as node IDs, UUIDs, titles, and author information, available for use in Drupal's field display system. It allows these base fields to be configured and displayed using standard formatters, and provides basic string formatters for fields that lack them.

This module does a very simple thing: it exposes entity base fields in view modes.

It can expose base fields for any core or custom content entities, like Content (node), Media, File, Paragraph, Taxonomy term, User...

Example of BaseFields provided by node entity type:

  • ID (nid)
  • UUID (uuid)
  • Content Type (type)
  • Title (title)
  • Authored by (uid)
  • Authored on (created)
  • ...

This module adds them in view modes with their original available field formatters depending on their type. It also provides very simple string formatters for some core field types that did not have any (uuid, password and path).

Configuration

After installing the module as usual, you need to activate some base fields in Configuration > Content authoring > BaseField Display.
