Card view for structure items#222

Structure items are awesome and super flexible, with them you can build really different stuff, but when it comes to the panel, the table view makes them always look the same and not always are representative for the content. I keep thinking how cool will be to have drag and drop cards similar to the files or pages section.

At one point the question arises why not use subpages?

IDK, but sometimes it doesn’t make sense to have subpages for something that is just data related to a page. Also structure items are really fast, from data entry point of view, having a dedicated page seems an overkill

I often build landing pages consisting of cards that are a mix of page teasers and custom items (for external links, announcements…). A card layout would be much closer to the actual page layout and making subpages that are essentially just a link to another page makes little sense.

What would the blueprint syntax look like to define what goes on the card?

I think the image and text properties that are available for page/file card/cardlet layouts are fine? I don’t know how hard it would be to query the fields or to apply sensible defaults though…
