Field States UI

Field States UI allows sites builders with minimal PHP/Dev skills to configure the Field States API. This lets you configure a field to for example hide if another field has a certain value or hasn't been filled. While doing it via PHP can be more powerful the UI can be very handy and speed development.

Usage

Configure a field

1. Configuration can be accessed per field instance wherever that field
   display is usually configured. For example fields on the Node type Article
   would be at /admin/structure/types/manage/article/form-display.
2. Use the contextual gear icon to edit the field.
3. There is now a Manage Fields States fieldset, select a new state, configure,
   click 'Add' and Save.
4. Save the Form Display

Field Types/Widgets

Due to various array structures, specific widgets/fields need to handled
specifically for each field at least. Many fields are the same structure
for all widgets and are not documented except in the code. Unrecognized
widgets and field types will attempt to be handled but some will be logged
to the dblog in cases that Field States UI is unsure. Please report those
to the issue queue.
