Entity item on home screen
In this example, we rename the title and subtitle of an entity on home screen, add a custom icon for the item.
- In Woodford, edit the home screen. Select the entity and click Rename. Use a unique one-word string, for example, "CustomAccount".
- Select Design > Localization from the Administrator menu and edit a language, Click Add to add a new localization string. As the ID, use "HomeTitle.HomeItemName"; in this particular example, "HomeTitle.CustomAccount". Add another string for HomeSubTitle.CustomAccount.
- If you want to change the icon of the home screen item, select Design > Images from the Administrator menu. Go to the Home directory and click Add to add a new image. As the image name, use the name you used in step 1, for example "CustomAccount".
Hub item on home screen
In this example, we create a new hub, add it to the home screen with a custom label and icon.
- In Woodford, go to Components > Entity Hubs and create a new hub. Give it a unique, one-worded name, for example "myHub".
- Go to Components > Home screen and add the new hub to your home.
- Go to Design > Localization and add new strings. As the ID, use "myHub" for the title and "myHub.SubTitle" for the subtitle.
- Go to Design > Images and add the new icon to the Home directory. Use "myHub" as the name.
- Result:
Rename views
Views are internally identified by their names. As a result, renaming views is tricky; see the best practices. In this example, we use localization to change the label of a view in the app.
