Did you fill all the necessary fields properly? Did you set the parent dropdown?
Hey, I filled every field and then when i click save that error appears, i dont have the parent dropdown field that you are talking about.
A dynamic dropdown needs a parent dropdown! Give me some time and i’ll create a post of how to use the dynamic dropdown.
Hey, that would be great man!
Thanks so much
Wow, that’s a really good guide, but after reading it and test it, i’m not sure dyamic dropdown it’s what i wanted, I’m sorry.
What i want is a list of workers, that the crm-user can only choose one and he also can ADD new workers to the list, that’s what i want and i thought, that i needed dynamic dropdown to do that.
Do you know how can I do that? It seems pretty easy, but i can’t find how to do it.
Thanks for the great guide
You can create a simple (secondary) module that may called Workers and has only a field name.
And add a relate field to your first module. So your crm-user can add new worker at Workers module and then relate them with your primary module.
Hope that helps
That’s exactly what I wanted, sorry i was a bit confused about how to do it.
Big thanks erevodifosin, very helpfull as always
You are welcome shuakai.
I am trying to do my best!
Hi erevodifosin,
Thanks for your detailed post.
I’ve been using dynamic dropdown for some time, but I find a problem with it.
Since the item labels that we create in the dynamic dropdowns are in the format <parent_list>_
they are inserted in this same format in the database, while ideally only ‘item’ should be inserted in the database table.
Is there a fix to this?
I read in the forums, where people say that it is only possible by using some custom coding.
Thanks for your time
I don’t know how to change the format. But if you want to change the inserted format you must also modigy how the program will handle while reading the data. Such a modification may not be upgrade-safe.
EDIT: Actually i don’t find any actual reason to do that.
You are right. That would be extensive work.
Thanks for your reply.
