Field types – Mesa

The right field for every piece of content

Each content area consists of fields — and for every kind of information there is the right field. So you don't enter data into an unsuitable text field, but into one that knows exactly what it is.

From simple to flexible

It ranges from simple fields (text, number, date, yes/no, choice, colour) through media (images, files) and links (an article references an author) to flexible building blocks for complex pages.

Building blocks for demanding content

Three especially powerful types: repeater fields (a list of similar blocks, e.g. several opening hours), layout blocks (freely combinable sections for individual pages) and variants (choose one of several options). With these even rich pages can be maintained without becoming chaotic.

What you gain

Suitable fields mean clean data, fewer input errors and an interface that takes work off your team instead of making it harder. Which fields an area has you define yourself and can change at any time.

New: the form field

Since July 2026 there is an additional field type, “Form”: if your Kepler is connected, editors choose directly in the entry which form should appear on the page — via a picker instead of code. That way every landing page gets its matching enquiry form, without double maintenance.
