Hi all. I want to have a form which will essentially be a few paragraphs of static text. The only way I can see to do this in Anvil is with labels. I’m thinking that the easiest way to manage this would be to store the content for each paragraph in a data table, and reference it from the form like so:
# Usual import statements snipped for brevity
class Test(TestTemplate):
def __init__(self, **properties):
# Set Form properties and Data Bindings.
self.init_components(**properties)
# Set the text properties for the labels from the stored strings in the data tables
self.label_1.text = app_tables.static_content.get(paragraph_id=1)['content']
self.label_2.text = app_tables.static_content.get(paragraph_id=2)['content']
self.label_3.text = app_tables.static_content.get(paragraph_id=3)['content']
Here is the data table I set up for this:
This all works OK:
What I’m wondering is whether there’s a better way to do this. Essentially, I’d be building a rudimentary CMS in Anvil. 
(I can see that one option might be to mix the Anvil app with an external static site, but I want to keep the entire thing in Anvil.)
Thanks,
Rich
