 Description   

The following changes have been implemented for https://docs.magnolia-cms.com/product-docs/Templating/Dialog-definition/Field-definition/List-of-fields/Link-field.html:

  • buttonSelectNewLabel defaults to translated fields.button.select.new key.
  • buttonSelectOtherLabel is deprecated.
  • emptySelectionAllowed defaults to false.
  • filteringMode defaults to CONTAINS.
  • New showOptions = false.
  • showOptions and textInputAllowed have to be set to true for filtering to work.
     To enable filtering, you have to set both showOptions and textInputAllowed to true.
  • pageLength has nothing to do with filtering.
    pageLength
    optional, default is 0
    To enable paging in the field pop-up, the value must be an integer greater than 0. A value of 0 disables paging and makes all items visible.
  • showOptions has to be set to true for options to appear in a combobox. The warning about possible performance issues should be moved to the showOptions property.
     Enabling and using showOptions with a data source that contains large data sets may lead to performance issues.

Updated the field-specific properties as well as the common combobox and select field properties at https://docs.magnolia-cms.com/product-docs/Templating/Dialog-definition/Field-definition/List-of-fields/Link-field.html.
