UserColumn

Summary

Read-only table column for displaying users with the same visual language as UserSelect. Automatically switches between a rich single-user layout and an overlapping avatar stack for multiple users.


Class	`Bjanczak\FilamentFlexFields\Filament\Tables\Columns\UserColumn`
Context	Filament tables (`$table->columns([...])`)
State type	`Model`, `Collection` of models, or `list<Model>`
Parent	`Filament\Tables\Columns\TextColumn`
Playground	`user-column` slug in Flex Fields playground

Basic usage

Single User (BelongsTo)

use Bjanczak\FilamentFlexFields\Filament\Tables\Columns\UserColumn;

UserColumn::make('author')
    ->label('Author')
    ->nameColumn('name')
    ->emailColumn('email')
    ->avatarColumn('avatar_url')
    ->verificationColumn('email_verified_at');

Multiple Users (BelongsToMany)

UserColumn::make('members')
    ->label('Team Members')
    ->maxVisibleAvatars(4)
    ->stackedOverlap(10);

State format

State must be an Eloquent Model or a collection/array of models. UserColumn automatically handles eager-loading for direct relationship columns.

Configuration API

All methods accept Closure unless noted.

Method	Type	Default	Description
`nameColumn(string $column)`	Setup	`'name'`	Name attribute
`emailColumn(string $column)`	Setup	`null`	Email / subtitle attribute
`avatarColumn(string $column)`	Setup	`null`	Avatar URL attribute
`verificationColumn(string $col)`	Setup	`null`	Verified badge attribute
`maxVisibleAvatars(int $limit)`	Setup	`4`	Max avatars in stack before `+N`
`stackedRing(int $px)`	Setup	`2`	Ring width around stacked avatars
`stackedOverlap(int $px)`	Setup	`10`	Overlap between stacked avatars
`stackTooltips(bool $cond)`	Setup	`true`	Show names in tooltips on stack
`eagerLoad(string\|array $rels)`	Setup	—	Extra relationships to eager-load
`sharedStackUsing(Closure $cb)`	Setup	—	Cache identical stacks per page

Real-world examples

Project Members Stack

UserColumn::make('members')
    ->maxVisibleAvatars(5)
    ->stackTooltips()
    ->getAvatarUrlUsing(fn ($user) => $user->getFilamentAvatarUrl());

Shared Preview Column

UserColumn::make('team_preview')
    ->sharedStackUsing(fn () => User::query()->limit(10)->get());

Performance

Auto Eager-Loading: Automatically calls with() for relationship columns.
Render Cache: Per-request caching of rendered HTML for identical stacks.
Lazy CSS: Stylesheets are loaded only when the column is rendered.
