# Configuring how fields display on your map

Choose which custom fields appear as chips in your record list, and control how each field renders in the detail view: as a pill, a table row, a full-width block, or hidden.

Every record on your map carries a set of custom fields: things like material, color, service type, or project date. The **Display** settings for each map let you control exactly which of those fields appear, in what order, and how they're rendered.

Go to **Maps** in the dashboard sidebar, click the pencil icon on the map you want to edit, then choose **Display** in the left rail.

## List field chips

The top card, **Fields in the record list**, controls the chips shown beneath each record's name in your map's sidebar and mobile card reel.

- **Reorder**: drag any row by its handle to change the left-to-right chip order.
- **Visibility**: toggle the switch on a row to show or hide that field's chip. Fields with empty values are always hidden automatically, regardless of this setting.

Click **Save field layout** when you're done. Changes take effect immediately on your public map.

## Detail view layout

The **Record detail layout** card controls what visitors see after they click a pin and open the full record.

Each field has four display modes:

| Mode          | What it does                                                                                                                       |
| ------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Pill**      | Renders the value as a small rounded chip, grouped at the top of the record. Good for short labels like material or color.         |
| **Table row** | Adds a two-column label + value row in a structured table section below the chips. Good for factual details visitors want to scan. |
| **Full**      | Renders the field in its own bordered card with a label above the value. Best for longer values like descriptions or notes.        |
| **Hide**      | Omits the field entirely from the public view.                                                                                     |

Drag any row to change the order fields appear in. The Pill group, Table section, and Full blocks each preserve their relative internal order.

Click **Save field layout** to publish your changes.

## Link fields

If a field value looks like a URL (starts with `https://`), Saw Your Sign automatically treats it as a link. In list chips it shows the hostname; in the detail view it renders as a clickable anchor that opens in a new tab.

## Defaults when no layout is saved

Until you configure a layout, all fields fall back to **Pill** mode. Only fields that have a value for the record being viewed are shown; empty fields are always suppressed.
