Switching from Nova to FIlament, questions on relation manager
When using relation manager, it looks like you have to re-create new/edit forms that may already be present on the relationship resource itself? Is there anyway when you click on a BelongsTo in the related table to simply use the form already created for that original resource instead of having to keep two separate copies of it?
Or better yet, the edit button will bring up the original edit page for that resource (same with new)? This is how it works on Nova anyway, just trying to wrap my head around it here.

You can generalise the form build and just call the form wherever you want too?
You can forward the form/table from the relation manager to the resource
and then hide the
parent_id field in the form, as we handle that for you
This is one of the ways that Filament works very differently from Nova - all code is fully exposed by default, then you can drill down and abstract things to your liking.Let me give that a go, thanks
works the same for table too, awesome thank you exactly what I was looking for
your username is pure poetry btw
how beautiful
hahaha
along the same idea, anyway to call existing actions from the other resource?
was playing around with
MyResource::table($table)->actions() can't figure it out thocreate a method on your resource to return the array of actions, then you can call it in any place you want.
even in the resource
table ->actions() should be inherited as normal from the resource to the relation manager
what specifically is wrong
