+The "Applies to" column is enforced by the manifest, not just documented here:
+each setting declares `depends_on` in its `help_text` schema, so the Screenly
+console only shows (and only saves) the settings that apply to the selected
+`widget_type`. `display_order` controls the sequence the fields render in,
+within the basic and advanced sections respectively.
