Setup and Usage

Installation

Usage

A typical use case for location is to set location in another entity like news or events. So you need to add it to the destiny bundle dca. There are many ways in contao to make a connection to locations like selects or checkboxes. Our recommendation is to use the contao picker widget:

$dca['tl_news']['fields']['locations'] = [
    'inputType' => 'picker',
    'relation' => ['type' => 'hasOne', 'load' => 'eager', 'table' => 'tl_location'],
    'eval' => [
        'multiple' => true, //
        'tl_class' => 'w50 clr autoheight'
    ],
    'sql' => 'blob NULL',
]
