Success!
I did delete the cache file and after a QR&R the chache file was regenerated but with the same result
I did get a couple of things figured out and the cache file now does include the array definitions and al,l is working for text fields and datetime fields
- When using Select the content is transferred over
- When using auto-complete, the content is transferred over
What I did figure out was that I needed to ensure that the array definitions were loaded AFTER the original definition of the name variable fp_events_ayu_funds_1_name. Since the original defninition of the name vaiable was created in Studio (as a one->to->many relationship), it named the vardef file _override_fp_events_ayu_funds_1_AYU_Funds.php . Since I had named my file without the override prefix, the original vardef for fp_events_ayu_funds_1_name wiped out my array definitions and prevented them from being added to the cache file.
I renamed my file to be loaded after the original vardef file so I renamed it to _override_fp_events_fieldToName.php and now the cache file does include the array definitions.
So all is working, including a datetime field which I have added.
I now need to do the same for a Flex_Relate field. Let’s hope it goes well …
Thank you for helping on this
