I have created a filament page, selected EditPage when filament asked me what kind of page is this going to be and now I am trying to fill the form with $record data, but I dont understand how to do that. Can someone help? This is a custom edit page for a relationManager, not a resource itself, so in a $resource and a mount function I have a different models.

Solution:

You can access your form using the mount() method. From there, you should be able to fill the fields with your record in this way: ``` public function mount(int | string $record): void {...

How do I make that custom edit page appear in the navigation menu? I mean, if in the class setup I set:

class CustomEditResource extends Page implements HasForms
{
use InteractsWithForms;

class CustomEditResource extends Page implements HasForms
{
use InteractsWithForms;

I can see the page right at the navigation menu. However, if I try, just like in this example, which is what I really want to do (a custom page to edit a record):

class CustomEditResource extends EditRecord
{
    use InteractsWithRecord;

class CustomEditResource extends EditRecord
{
    use InteractsWithRecord;

the link to the page in the navigation, disappears. So how does this work? How do I set the link to that custom edit page? Could you please shed some light on this?
