I have a Job board inthe Legacy Grid that allows people with linked records to click a button to link themselves to the Job. I cannot figure out to do this with the new Portal Grid ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex035/uploads/miniextensions/original/1X/6a4446a342b26bc9284738ab76da4fb0539815cb.png) ---

Hi @Erinmckinnon. There are 2 ways to add a button in the grid: 1. Add the button field in the edit child form 2. Add the button field in the custom fields for layout You can refer to this article for more information: > **[How to select which fields show up on the portal or on the form's linked...](https://docs.miniextensions.com/en/articles/6146195-how-to-select-which-fields-show-up-on-the-portal-or-on-the-form-s-linked-records)** > > I want to customize the fields that the user sees to know the record's content without clicking on it. ---
