Modals

When Quick Create opens a form inline rather than navigating to a create page, these methods shape the modal it uses.

Forcing every resource into a modal

Quick Create decides per resource whether to open a modal or navigate to that resource's create page. alwaysShowModal() overrides the decision so nothing ever leaves the current page:

use Awcodes\QuickCreate\QuickCreatePlugin;

public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
{
    return $panel
        ->plugins([
            QuickCreatePlugin::make()
                ->alwaysShowModal(),
        ]);
}

The form is built from the resource's own schema, so a resource with a create page and one without both render the same fields.

Slide-overs

slideOver() renders the form in a slide-over panel instead of a centred modal:

QuickCreatePlugin::make()
    ->slideOver()

Modal width

modalWidths() sets the width. A single value applies to every resource:

QuickCreatePlugin::make()
    ->modalWidths('2xl')

An array sets widths per entry, matched by the entry's position in the menu rather than by resource class:

QuickCreatePlugin::make()
    ->modalWidths(['2xl', 'lg', 'sm'])

Caution

Because the array is positional, its meaning depends on the menu's order — and that order is itself affected by sorting, authorization, and includes or excludes. An entry hidden from one user shifts every width after it. Prefer a single value unless the menu's contents are fixed.

An entry with no matching index falls back to the first width in the array.

Modal heading and description

modalHeading() and modalDescription() replace the modal's default text. Both accept a :label placeholder, substituted with the resource's model label:

QuickCreatePlugin::make()
    ->modalHeading('New :label')
    ->modalDescription('Fill in the details for this :label.')

With a resource whose model label is "Blog post", that heading renders as "New Blog post".

Leave either unset to keep Filament's default.

Extra modal attributes

modalExtraAttributes() puts arbitrary attributes on the modal window, for hooks your own CSS or JavaScript needs:

QuickCreatePlugin::make()
    ->modalExtraAttributes(['class' => 'quick-create-modal'])

Create another

Filament's create forms can offer a "create another" option. By default Quick Create inherits whatever the resource already does — it reads the setting from the resource's create page, or from the create action on its list page when there is no create page.

Override it for every resource with createAnother():

QuickCreatePlugin::make()
    ->createAnother(false)

Passing true enables it everywhere, false disables it everywhere. Leave the method off entirely to keep each resource's own behaviour, which is usually what you want.
