We’ve heard from many of you that it’s tough to quickly grasp what’s inside each record or block at a glance when shown in preview mode —especially when those blocks or records lack text fields.

To address this, we’ve introduced a new approach to displaying previews across the entire CMS: inline blocks, link fields, and even the item index, all benefit from clearer at-a-glance content!

What's new?

First, we’ve aligned how the “Presentation” tab works for both models and blocks, letting you pick a Title preview field and an Image preview.
And second, we introduced new field types that can be selected as title and/or preview fields:

• Color fields show a handy swatch (with optional opacity);

• Date/DateTime fields use a quick calendar icon and display the date itself;

• Geolocation fields bring in a map preview;

• Number fields can be used as title and show their integer or floating-point value.

How do I enable it?
Just head to the “Presentation” tab in your model or block settings to choose your Title and Image preview fields. No extra steps required!

Color, Geolocation, and Date fields will also provide a much cleaner interface when set as Preview Fields.

Why does it matter?

This update makes it faster and clearer to see what’s inside each record or block at a glance. If you’ve ever found yourself repeatedly opening blocks just to check their contents, you’ll love these new previews!
