How can a detail page on a separate page be displayed in a vertical column, instead of the default horizontal layout? This is for the Detail after selecting a record on the Master.
Hi Larry, If you wish to make a Template Page for the Master Details have a layout of values displayed in a vertical line - the way how the tables look like, the Header row on top, with the rows beneath; There is a way if you use our new feature of a Parent > Child table relation and choose to show the full Child table on the Template Page, filtered by the chosen row ID from the parent table. Please check more details on this here with our example.
Let me know if that works for your use case, and if you have any questions.

let me clarify:
1) I'm referring to the "detail record page"
2) where a specific page is used to display the record, NOT a pop up, dialogue window
3) layout (vertical)
fieldlabel 1: value1
fieldlabel 2: value2
fieldlabel 3: value3
etc. etc
NOT THIS default layout (horizontal)
column label1 - column label2 - column label3
value 1 - value 2 - value 3
hopefully that helps explain what I'm looking for?
how to make that happen?
as everything I tried, nothing happens automatically or with any settings I tried.
thanks
Hi Larry,
You can easily set up each field label text with its column placeholder value on the same line, 1 by 1, as you have described.
It depends on which Page builder you are using, maybe one has some kind of a conflict, but we just tested some major builders and can't see any issue.
You can see the example in our Documentation, of how we made the page with the Classic builder, just as you wrote :
fieldlabel 1: value1
fieldlabel 2: value2
fieldlabel 3: value3
etc
And this works without any issues on our Site/pages/tables. First, here is a screenshot if we use the Classic editor :
If we set everything like that, it would render like this on the template Page:
After that, we used the WPBakery Page builder, and in it, we separate these into two text blocks in the same line.
In the left text block we write the Column label we wish, and on the right text block, we write the column value placeholder, like this :
You can then try this Car Details table on our master Details Demo Site and see how it renders the values on the same line.
Can you try to edit your Page like that, with the Classic editor, or any other Page builder and let me know if you still encounter any issues?
Thank you.
