Displaying Related Data

The plugin includes a flexible relations table template for displaying related data on contact detail pages.

Relations Table Template

Include the _relations-table.twig template to display any related data in a formatted table:

{% set columns = [
    {label: 'Title', key: 'title', link: true},
    {label: 'Status', key: 'status'},
    {label: 'Created', key: 'dateCreated', type: 'date'}
] %}

{% include 'contacts/_relations-table' with {
    title: 'Related Entries',
    columns: columns,
    rows: relatedEntries,
    emptyMessage: 'No related entries found.'
} %}

Column Configuration

Each column supports the following properties:

• label (string): Column header label
• key (string): Property key to access in row data
• link (boolean): Whether to link to element's CP edit URL (default: false)
• type (string): Format type for cell value (default: 'text')

Supported Column Types

• text: Renders value as-is (supports HTML)
• date: Formats date using |date('short')
• datetime: Formats datetime using |datetime('short')
• timestamp: Formats timestamp using |timestamp
• relation: Resolves relation field and displays title (automatically linked)
• dropdown: Displays dropdown field label instead of value

Example: Display Registrations

{# Get related registrations for this contact #}
{% set registrations = craft.entries()
    .section('registrations')
    .relatedTo(element)
    .all() %}

{% set columns = [
    {label: 'Registration', key: 'title', link: true},
    {label: 'Course', key: 'course', type: 'relation'},
    {label: 'Status', key: 'registrationStatus', type: 'dropdown'},
    {label: 'Date', key: 'dateCreated', type: 'date'}
] %}

{% include 'contacts/_relations-table' with {
    title: 'Registrations',
    columns: columns,
    rows: registrations
} %}

This will display:

• Registration: Clickable title linking to the registration entry
• Course: Related course title, linking to the course entry
• Status: Human-readable dropdown label (e.g., "Pending Approval")
• Date: Formatted date (e.g., "Jan 15, 2024")

All links open in a new tab to preserve the contact detail page.

Pagination Support

For large datasets, enable pagination by passing an element query and setting paginate: true:

{% set columns = [
    {label: 'Registration', key: 'title', link: true},
    {label: 'Course', key: 'course', type: 'relation'},
    {label: 'Date', key: 'dateCreated', type: 'date'}
] %}

{% include 'contacts/_relations-table' with {
    title: 'Registrations',
    columns: columns,
    rows: craft.entries().section('registrations').relatedTo(element),  {# Pass query, not .all() #}
    paginate: true,
    pageSize: 20
} %}

Important: When using pagination, pass the element query directly (don't call .all()). The template will handle executing the query with pagination.

Pagination Parameters:

• paginate (boolean): Enable pagination (default: false)
• pageSize (integer): Items per page (default: 20)

Pagination works with both element queries and arrays. The template automatically uses Craft's native pagination UI for queries and a custom implementation for arrays. Array pagination uses the relationPage URL parameter to avoid conflicts with CP routing.
