Warning

**This plugin has been abandoned.** With the release of Craft 5, core UI Elements can now be placed into the field layouts of any element type. However, there is still a Craft 5 compatible version of this plugin available, which includes a `ui-element-fields/convert` command designed to transform existing UI Element fields into core UI Elements.

UI Element fields for Craft CMS
===============================

[](#ui-element-fields-for-craft-cms)

UI Elements in Matrix blocks is hopefully coming as a core feature in Craft 5 (see [feature request](https://github.com/craftcms/cms/issues/6494)). Install this plugin if you are missing this feature now.

The plugin comes with the following field types, which look just like their UI Element counterparts.

- UI Tip
- UI Warning
- UI Template

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

UI Element fields is available in the Plugin Store. You can also install the plugin manually from the command line with the following commands.
