Not possible to add/manage field on layout builder or standard field ui

Created on 3 April 2025, about 1 month ago

Problem/Motivation

After setting up the field and navigating to 'Manage Display, the field is missing on layout builder, or, if using the standard Field UI, the formatter appears empty.

I believe the issue is that the new field type sets file_default as the default formatter. However, this formatter does not apply to the new field because it is not defined.

Proposed resolution

Create a new formatter that extends the file_default formmater class.

I've created a new formatter extending the file_default generic formatter.
