The Show/Hide Fields tab in the Files module settings allows admins to control the way files and folders are displayed. Admins can choose between a custom or fixed view and select which metadata fields appear on the Files module to best suit their teamβs needs.
When the display view is set to Custom, admins have full control over which metadata fields are shown for files and folders. This option provides a more detailed and spacious layout, allowing items to appear with additional context based on the selected fields.
Admins can choose specific metadata fields (e.g., tags, categories, owner, etc.) to display.
Items are shown in a larger layout for improved visibility and detail.
Best used when you want full customization and richer metadata on the Files page.
The File Image and File Name fields are always shown by default and cannot be disabled.
The Fixed view uses a standard, predefined layout that highlights the most essential file details.
Displays a compact layout to fit more items on the page.
Only shows key metadata fields: Name, Size, Updated On, and Updated By.
Ideal when you want a clean, minimal display focused on key file information.
By using the Show/Hide Fields tab, admins can tailor the Files module experience to match their organization's preferences, whether it's maximizing visible details or simplifying the layout for easier browsing.
