Validate at every entry point

Directoryz normalizes and validates custom values when staff create or edit listings and when the public submits a listing.

Public and workspace search include stored custom values, helping users find records by domain-specific facts.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which field types are available?

Short text, long text, URL, number, select, and yes/no.

Can a field be internal only?

A field can be excluded from public submissions and cards, though saved values currently appear on the public listing detail page.

Can each listing have a different schema?

No. Fields belong to the directory schema so every listing remains consistent.
