"Edit Device" wordpress template questions

[Torte]

The "Edit Device" wordpress template ("https://www.armbian.com/wp-admin/...") has some input fields that I would like to understand.

 

I am trying to complete it for the MKS-Klipad50 (https://www.armbian.com/mks-klipad50).
(It's a CSC board, not standard support - if that matters.)

 

Following fields are unclear to me:

• "Compatible"
  • What is the meaning and expected syntax?
  • Is that something like devices using the same kernel, but different setup/devicetree files?
• "Expose kernels" / "How many kernels to expose?"
  • Is this related to the "Kernels" table (see below), like how many rows to use?
• "Kernels"
  • Is it required adding rows to have images automatically generated and appear as download links on the device page?
    Or are these options just required for additional non-standard images?
    Is it better to leave it empty?

 

Could someone please shed some light on the meaning of these fields?

Following fields are unclear to me:

Compatible field is reserved for almost identical boards or when image supports more devices, like Raspberry Pi 3 and 4. Base image is for Rpi4 but Rpi3 is also compatible.

 

Other two fields are deprecated as content is generated automatically. For customization of build targets, check this https://github.com/armbian/os/wiki
