How to pass a value along with p:commandButton with p:dialog - jsf

I have a dialog which is contains two listboxes, one checkbox and one button. I try to pass values of these components to backing bean.
<p:dialog header="Add" widgetVar="dlgAdd" resizable="false"
id="dlgAddId" showEffect="fade" modal="true">
<h:form id="dlgAddForm">
<p:panelGrid columns="2">
<p:outputLabel>Name*</p:outputLabel>
<p:selectOneMenu id="addname" value="#{notificationsSettingManagedBean.customerUserEmailSetting.userNameSurname}" effect="fold">
<f:selectItems value="#{notificationsSettingManagedBean.customerUserNameSurnameList}" />
</p:selectOneMenu>
<p:outputLabel>Email-ID*</p:outputLabel>
<p:selectOneMenu id="addsurname" value="" effect="fold">
<f:selectItems value="#{notificationsSettingManagedBean.customerUserEmailsList}" />
</p:selectOneMenu>
</p:panelGrid>
<p:panel>
<div align="center">
<p:outputLabel>Email Notifications</p:outputLabel>
</div>
</p:panel>
<p:panelGrid columns="2" style="width: 100%;text-align: center;">
<p:outputLabel>Order Submitted</p:outputLabel>
<p:selectBooleanCheckbox value="#{notificationsSettingManagedBean.customerUserEmailSetting.orderSubmit}"/>
</p:panelGrid>
<div align="center">
<p:commandButton
actionListener="#{notificationsSettingManagedBean.saveCustomerEmailSettings}"
immediate="true" value="Save" ajax="true"
oncomplete="dlgAddId.hide();" />
</div>
</h:form>
</p:dialog>
On notificationsSettingManagedBean, i create customerUserEmailSetting object which is contains get and set methods of userNameSurname,customerUserEmailsList and ordersubmit.
Problem is when try to get this data on saveCustomerEmailSettings method on backing bean i see that these data are null. How can i pass them to backing bean?

p:remoteCommand update attribute VS p:commandButton update attribute?

I have the following block of code, when i update the "pickList" from the p:remoteCommand it gets updated.
<h:panelGrid columns="1">
<p:panel id="panel" header="Units"
style="margin-bottom:10px; background:#F3F2F2; margin-bottom:0px">
<p:pickList id="pickList"
value="#{AdminController.unitsPickListAll}" var="selectedUnit"
itemLabel="#{selectedUnit}" itemValue="#{selectedUnit}" />
</p:panel>
<h:panelGrid columns="1" styleClass="right-alignment">
<h:panelGroup>
<p:commandButton id="refereshButton" value="#{i18n.refresh}"
immediate="true" action="#{AdminController.getAllUnits}"
oncomplete="rc()" />
<h:outputText value="  " />
<p:commandButton id="saveButton" value="#{i18n.save}"
action="#{AdminController.updateUsedUnits}" />
</h:panelGroup>
</h:panelGrid>
</h:panelGrid>
<p:remoteCommand name="rc" update="panel" />
But when I use "update" attribute in the "refereshButton", the pickList does not get updated.
Below is the same code but without p:remoteCommand and with update attribute in refereshButton.
<h:panelGrid columns="1">
<p:panel id="panel" header="Units"
style="margin-bottom:10px; background:#F3F2F2; margin-bottom:0px">
<p:pickList id="pickList"
value="#{AdminController.unitsPickListAll}" var="selectedUnit"
itemLabel="#{selectedUnit}" itemValue="#{selectedUnit}" />
</p:panel>
<h:panelGrid columns="1" styleClass="right-alignment">
<h:panelGroup>
<p:commandButton id="refereshButton" value="#{i18n.refresh}"
immediate="true" action="#{AdminController.getAllUnits}"
update="pickList" />
<h:outputText value="  " />
<p:commandButton id="saveButton" value="#{i18n.save}"
action="#{AdminController.updateUsedUnits}" />
</h:panelGroup>
</h:panelGrid>
</h:panelGrid>
What this reason behind this behavior?
The reason you are getting different results is because you are doing different updates. You update panel from the remote command and pickList from the button.
Use update="panel" on your button to get the same result. This will also save you an Ajax request (and some server load).

p:commandButton doesn't dislpay p:dialog

i have a problem with the display of a dialog on a click. It's a obvious one but i can't spot the bug. I've been stuck on this for days, it's crazy. Can you help me please.
<h:form id="form">
<p:commandButton
rendered="#{characterBean.characterSession.characterName ne null}"
value="#{characterBean.characterSession.title.titleName}"
icon="fa fa-fw fa-edit" onclick="PF('dlg').show();"
update="#form"/>
<p:dialog id="titleDetail" header="#{i18n['title.yourTitles']}"
widgetVar="dlg" dynamic="true" closable="false" resizable="false"
showEffect="fade" hideEffect="fade">
<h:panelGroup>
<p:messages autoUpdate="true" />
<h:selectOneMenu id="titleSelect" converter="#{titleConverter}"
value="#{characterBean.characterSession.title}">
<f:selectItems value="#{characterBean.titleUnlocked}" var="t"
itemValue="#{t}" itemLabel="#{t.titleName}" />
</h:selectOneMenu>
<hr />
<h:panelGrid columns="2" style="width: 100%; text-align:center">
<p:commandButton value="#{i18n['general.submit']}"
icon="fa fa-check"
actionListener="#{characterBean.updateCharacterTitle}"
oncomplete="PF('dlg').hide();" update="#form" />
<p:commandButton value="#{i18n['general.cancel']}"
icon="fa fa-close" action="#{characterBean.submitCancel}"
oncomplete="PF('dlg').hide();" update="#form" process="#this" />
</h:panelGrid>
<p:remoteCommand name="updateForm()" process="#this" update="#form" />
</h:panelGroup>
</p:dialog>
</h:form>
The core problem is essentially this:
<h:form>
<p:commandButton onclick="PF('dlg').show();" update="#form"/>
<p:dialog widgetVar="dlg">
...
</p:dialog>
</h:form>
The default state of <p:dialog> is hidden.
The onclick shows the dialog.
The update updates the entire content of the <h:form>.
The <p:dialog> is also included in the update.
So, the <p:dialog> gets hidden again.
There are several solutions:
Don't let update include the <p:dialog>.
<h:form>
<h:panelGroup id="outsideDialog">
<p:commandButton onclick="PF('dlg').show();" update="outsideDialog"/>
</h:panelGroup>
<p:dialog widgetVar="dlg">
...
</p:dialog>
</h:form>
Replace onclick by oncomplete as it runs after the update.
<h:form>
<p:commandButton update="#form" oncomplete="PF('dlg').show();" />
<p:dialog widgetVar="dlg">
...
</p:dialog>
</h:form>
Move <p:dialog> outside the <h:form> and give it its own <h:form>.
<h:form>
<p:commandButton update="#form :dlg" oncomplete="PF('dlg').show();" />
</h:form>
<p:dialog id="dlg" widgetVar="dlg">
<h:form>
...
</h:form>
</p:dialog>
or, depending on whether you actually need to update the dialog's contents or not
<h:form>
<p:commandButton onclick="PF('dlg').show();" update="#form" />
</h:form>
<p:dialog widgetVar="dlg">
<h:form>
...
</h:form>
</p:dialog>
The recommended solution is 3.

primefaces command button does not take action

i need help with this. I have a 'form' which call a p:dialog through p:commandButton. That p:dialog include other p:commandButton, but that second button does not take any action, which is weird for me, because the first button works fine.
The code:
<ui:define name="body">
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<p:ajaxStatus onstart="PF('statusDialog').show()" onsuccess="PF('statusDialog').hide()" />
<p:dialog widgetVar="statusDialog" modal="true" draggable="false" closable="false" resizable="false" showHeader="false">
<p:graphicImage value="/resources/Images/ajax-loader.gif" alt="Por favor espere..." />
</p:dialog>
<h:form id="BuscarEmpresaForm">
<h:panelGroup id="display">
<h:panelGrid columns="2" style="margin-left: 10px;">
<p:outputLabel value="#{bundle.BuscarEmpresaBuscarLabel}" />
<h:outputLabel/>
<h:selectOneRadio id="idBusquedaRadio" value="#{cupoController.radioButtonBusqueda}">
<f:selectItem itemLabel="#{bundle.BuscarEmpresaCodigoLabel}" itemValue="Codigo" />
<f:selectItem itemLabel="#{bundle.BuscarEmpresaNombreLabel}" itemValue="Nombre" />
</h:selectOneRadio>
<h:outputLabel/>
<p:inputText id="empresa" value="#{cupoController.empresaTextoBusqueda}" required="true" requiredMessage="El campo es requerido"/>
<!--THIS BUTTON WORKS-->
<p:commandButton value="Buscar" actionListener="#{cupoController.prepareCreateEmpresa()}" action="#{cupoController.searchEmpresa()}" oncomplete="PF('dlg1').show();" update=":confirmDialogEmpresa">
</p:commandButton>
<p:message for="empresa"/>
</h:panelGrid>
</h:panelGroup>
</h:form>
<p:dialog id="dialog1" header="Mensaje" widgetVar="dlg1" minHeight="40" modal="true" appendTo="#(body)">
<h:form id="confirmDialogEmpresa">
<h:panelGroup id="display">
<h:panelGrid columns="2" rendered="#{cupoController.selectedEmpresa.codcor != null}">
<p:outputLabel value="Empresa encontrada, Continuar?"/>
<h:outputLabel/>
<p:outputLabel value="Nombre: #{cupoController.selectedEmpresa.razonsocial}"/>
<h:outputLabel/>
<p:outputLabel value="RUC: #{cupoController.selectedEmpresa.ruc}"/>
<h:outputLabel/>
<!--THIS BUTTON DOES NOT WORK-->
<p:commandButton value="Si" action="#{cupoController.buscarCupo}" icon="ui-icon-check"/>
<p:commandButton value="No" onclick="dlg1.hide();" icon="ui-icon-close" update="#none"/>
</h:panelGrid>
<h:panelGrid columns="2" rendered="#{cupoController.selectedEmpresa.codcor == null}" >
<p:outputLabel value="Empresa no encontrada"/>
<h:outputLabel/>
<p:messages />
<h:outputLabel/>
<p:commandButton value="Aceptar" onclick="dlg1.hide();" icon="ui-icon-close" update="#none"/>
</h:panelGrid>
</h:panelGroup>
</h:form>
</p:dialog>
</ui:define>
I have done some attempts replacing p:commandButton for h:commandButton but have same results.
An image showing what code outs
Thanks in advance.
I found the problem and is related to the topic: Backing beans (#ManagedBean) or CDI Beans (#Named)?
In my case i was confused. I was mixing CDI annotations with JSF annotations in the managed bean related, producing a strange behavior. Finally i have fixed letting just JSF annotations.

p:dialog appears on bottom when p:blockUI targets it

I have a PrimeFaces dialog, that has two command buttons that executes some code in the backing bean. I want to block the dialog within the action.
I managed to do it using blockUI, but when the blockUI is present, and I open the dialog, it appears at the bottom of the page.
If I remove the blockUI component, the dialog opens at the center of the page, as I want. But I want it to be centered and with the blockUI.
<p:dialog header="Attention" id="dialog" position="center"
widgetVar="dialog" modal="true" closable="false"
dynamic="true" closeOnEscape="false">
<div class="internal-margin-top">
<h:outputText value="Location" styleClass="ui-outputtext" />
<p:inputText value="#{activityBean.location}"
id="inputLocation" maxlength="15">
</p:inputText>
</div>
<div class="internal-margin-bottom">
<p:commandButton id="closureYes" value="Yes"
styleClass="btn-green"
onstart="PF('block').show();"
oncomplete="PF('dialog').hide(); PF('block').hide();"
action="#{activityBean.processItem()}" process="#all">
</p:commandButton>
<p:commandButton id="closureNo" value="No"
styleClass="btn-red"
onstart="PF('block').show();"
oncomplete="PF('dialog').hide(); PF('block').hide();"
action="#{activityBean.processActivity()}" process="#all" />
</div>
</p:dialog>
<p:blockUI block="scrapDialog" widgetVar="block">
<p:graphicImage library="images" name="loading_bar.gif" />
</p:blockUI>
Thanks in advance.
Example with a centered modal dialog:
<p:dialog header="Header" position="center" widgetVar="wv_dialog" modal="true" closable="false" dynamic="true" closeOnEscape="false">
<h:form id="dialogform">
<p:panelGrid columns="1">
<p:inputText value="test"/>
<p:inputText value="test"/>
<p:inputText value="test"/>
<p:inputText value="test"/>
</p:panelGrid>
<p:commandButton id="closebutton"
value="Close"
oncomplete="PF('wv_dialog').hide();"
action="#{testBean.actionTest()}"
process="#form"/>
<p:blockUI block="dialogform" trigger="closebutton"/>
</h:form>
</p:dialog>

how to reload p:dataGrid programmatically?

I have a datagrid with subscribe and unsubscribe option so the user can subscribe and unsubscribe and vise verse.
now I want to reload the datagrid after subscription or unsubscription
I load the data of the grid like that
#PostConstruct
public void init() {
packages = packagehelper.getAllPackages();
getCurrentUserSubscritions();
}
and here is the xhtml file
<h:form id="form">
<p:growl id="growl" showDetail="true" sticky="false" life="8000" />
<p:dataGrid var="package" value="#{packageView.packages}" columns="3"
>
<p:column>
<f:facet name="header">
Cars for Sale
</f:facet>
<p:panel header="#{package.id}" style="text-align:center">
<h:panelGrid columns="2" style="width:100%">
<p:graphicImage width="100px" name="images/#{package.imageurl}"/>
<h:outputText value="#{package.name}" />
<h:outputText value="#{package.value} EGP for #{package.duration} Days " />
<h:outputText value="#{package.description}" />
<p:commandButton ajax="true" update=":pack" value="Subscribe" rendered="#{!packageView.IsPackageActive(package.id)}" action="#{packageView.Subscribe()}" >
<f:setPropertyActionListener value="#{package.id}" target="#{packageView.packageID}" />
<f:setPropertyActionListener value="#{package.duration}" target="#{packageView.packageDuration}" />
</p:commandButton>
<p:commandButton action="#{packageView.Unsubscribe}" update=":pack" ajax="true" value="Cancel" rendered="#{packageView.UserHasPackage(package.id) and packageView.IsPackageActive(package.id) }">
<f:setPropertyActionListener value="#{package.id}" target="#{packageView.packageID}" />
<f:setPropertyActionListener value="#{package.duration}" target="#{packageView.packageDuration}" />
</p:commandButton>
</h:panelGrid>
</p:panel>
</p:column>
</p:dataGrid>
</h:form>
When an suscribe or unsuscribe action is completed, you should actualize the DataGrid trough its ID, it is, set an ID to the DataGrid and put such id in the update property of the buttons.
For example:
<p:dataGrid id="datalist" .../>
<p:commandButton action="#{packageView.Unsubscribe}" update="datalist" .../>
And when the action of the button is submited set the packages in null, so when the update action of the DataGrid update the packages they should be called again of the persistence or data base.
It is important to consider how to reference the elements in update property. You can see this answer
