Is it possible to have an author dropdown select field in a SafeCracker form, in a similar way to how you can have a Status dropdown select field with the following code?
{status_menu}
<label for="status">Status</label>
<select name="status" id="status">
{select_options}
</select>
{/status_menu}
I've searched the docs and EE forums but can't find anything, but hoping there's a way of doing this.
Thanks for any help,
Ste
Edit:
Thanks to Tyssen's reply below, I've just implemented this solution in a SafeCracker form and it works great. Just one note though - the name should be author_id rather than author. Here's my final code, including a conditional to show the entry's current author:
<label>Author</label>
<select name="author_id">
{exp:query sql="SELECT member_id, screen_name, group_id FROM exp_members ORDER BY screen_name ASC;"}
<option value="{member_id}" {if "{member_id}" == "{author_id}"}selected="selected"{/if}>{screen_name}</option>
{/exp:query}
</select>
Use the query module maybe?
<select name="author">
{exp:query sql="SELECT member_id, screen_name
FROM exp_members
WHERE group_id = X;"
}
<option value="{member_id}">{screen_name}</option>
{/exp:query}

I need the value that is obtained from my db is selected. Inspect in html, I see that the value of one of the <option> changes to: selected="selected" but in the select it is not really selected.
Here is my code:
<select chosen class="form-control" name="state" ng-model="product.state" ng-change="updateData()" placeholder-text-single="'Select one'" required >
<option value="">Select one</option>
<option ng-repeat='i in statesList' value="{{i.id}}" ng-selected="i.id == product.state.id">{{i.name}}</option>
</select>
I tried to change the value of ng-model by ng-model="product.state.id" and it works, it stays selected, but of course, the data is not saved later.
statesList is the array of objects that are retrieved from a mongodb database collection.
I have read other similar questions but I can not solve my problem with them. I am new at angular and there are complicated problems for me. What solution is there? How can i fix it?
No need to have ng-change handler.
Try below approach by using ng-options. The model will always have latest selected value.
<select name="state" id="state"
ng-options="option.name for option in statesList track by option.id"
ng-model="product.state"></select>
In my project i have handled selects control with Reactive form, you can try like this
this.testForm = this.formBuilder.group({
"testselectControl": []});
in html
<select id="test1" formControlName="testselectControl"
class="form-control p-0 start-date-input-box ">
<option *ngFor="let val of listValues" [value]="val.id">
{{name.name}}</option>
</select>
when you receive data set value like this
this.testForm .get("testselectControl").setValue(listValues ? (listValues.find((value) => (value.id.trim() ==selectedValueId) : "0");
<select multiple ui-select2="{allowClear: true}" ng-
model="selectedCountries" data-placeholder="Countries">
<option ng-repeat="country in countries" value="{{country.id}}">
{{country.name}}</option>
</select>
<button ng-click="fetch()" class="btn btn-primary pull-right">Apply</button>
the solution of adding priority worked
I would like to apply the grouped text in listbox, looks like this
to
this is listbox in the resources page.
I tried to add the ‘optgroup’ tag into
'manager\templates\default\element\tv\renders\input\listbox-multiple.tpl'
but still not working, the 'optgroup’ tag will be ignored.
I unterstand that I should ‘Adding a Custom TV Input Type’ but the document didn’t include the details about grouping input values.
That is easy ;)
your listbox should contain a #CHUNK yourchunk
In that chunk you can perform nearly everything, that genereates a list, like:
<select name="something" id="something" >
<option value="" selected disabled>choose</option>
<optgroup label="Headline 01">
[[pdoResources? &parents=`0` &where=`{"template:=":40` &sortby=`{"value":"ASC"}` &limit=`40` &tpl=`pdoResourcesFormoption-something` &includeTVs=`some-tv`]]
</optgroup>
<optgroup label="Headline 02">
[[pdoResources? &parents=`0` &where=`{"template:=":41` &sortby=`{"value":"ASC"}` &limit=`40` &tpl=`pdoResourcesFormoption-something` &includeTVs=`some-tv`]]
</optgroup>
<optgroup label="Headline 03">
[[pdoResources? &parents=`0` &where=`{"pagetitle:=":"something"` &sortby=`{"value":"ASC"}` &limit=`40` &tpl=`pdoResourcesFormoption-something` &includeTVs=`some-tv`]]
</optgroup>
I'm a little bit confused with Angular and ng-options.
I have a simple array and I want to init a select with it. But, I want that options value = label.
script.js
$scope.options = ['var1', 'var2', 'var3'];
html
<select ng-model="myselect" ng-options="o for o in options"></select>
What I get:
<option value="0">var1</option>
<option value="1">var2</option>
<option value="2">var3</option>
What I want:
<option value="var1">var1</option>
<option value="var2">var2</option>
<option value="var3">var3</option>
So I tried:
<select ng-model="myselect2" ng-init=0 ng-options="options[k] as v for (k,v) in options"></select>
<select ng-model="myselect3" ng-init=0 ng-options="b as b for b in options"></select>
(But it didn’t work.)
Edit:
My form is submitted externally, which is why I need 'var1' as the value instead of 0.
You actually had it correct in your third attempt.
<select ng-model="myselect" ng-options="o as o for o in options"></select>
See a working example here:
http://plnkr.co/edit/xEERH2zDQ5mPXt9qCl6k?p=preview
The trick is that AngularJS writes the keys as numbers from 0 to n anyway, and translates back when updating the model.
As a result, the HTML will look incorrect but the model will still be set properly when choosing a value. (i.e. AngularJS will translate '0' back to 'var1')
The solution by Epokk also works, however if you're loading data asynchronously you might find it doesn't always update correctly. Using ngOptions will correctly refresh when the scope changes.
You can use ng-repeat with option like this:
<form>
<select ng-model="yourSelect"
ng-options="option as option for option in ['var1', 'var2', 'var3']"
ng-init="yourSelect='var1'"></select>
<input type="hidden" name="yourSelect" value="{{yourSelect}}" />
</form>
When you submit your form you can get value of input hidden.
DEMO
ng-selected
ng-repeat
If you setup your select like the following:
<select ng-model="myselect" ng-options="b for b in options track by b"></select>
you will get:
<option value="var1">var1</option>
<option value="var2">var2</option>
<option value="var3">var3</option>
working fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/x8kCZ/15/
you could use something like
<select ng-model="myselect">
<option ng-repeat="o in options" ng-selected="{{o==myselect}}" value="{{o}}">
{{o}}
</option>
</select>
using ng-selected you preselect the option in case myselect was prefilled.
I prefer this method over ng-options anyway, as ng-options only works with arrays. ng-repeat also works with json-like objects.
<select ng-model="option" ng-options="o for o in options">
$scope.option will be equal to 'var1' after change, even you see value="0" in generated html

i tried to select a value out of a combo box via groovy(geb).
the html code is:
<select id="entity-list-form:statusSearchBtn" name="entity-list-form:statusSearchBtn" size="1" style="width: 200px;">
<option value="">alle</option>
<option value="REGISTERED" selected="selected">Wartet auf Bestätigung</option>
<option value="REJECTED">Registrierung zurückgewiesen</option>
<option value="APPROVED">Registrierung angenommen</option>
<option value="UNSUBSCRIBED">Abgemeldet</option>
</select>
i tried to access these elements via
$("entity-list-form").statusSearchBtn = "alle"
or
$("entity-list-form").statusSearchBtn.value() == "alle"
a different approach was in the page siet to add
statusSearchBtn { $('select[name$="entity-list-form:statusSearchBtn"]') }
and also the case with the name only like entity-list-form. in this caes i tried it like
statusSearchBtn = "alle"
or
statusSearchBtn.value() == "alle"
the last one end without any errors, but didnt change the selected value to "alle".
the former one ended in No such property: statusSearchBtn for class: geb.navigator.EmptyNavigator.
i greatly apprichiate any advice,
I think:
$("select", name : "entity-list-form:statusSearchBtn").value('alle')
$("select", name : "entity-list-form:statusSearchBtn").value() = 'alle'
Hay all,
I am trying to validate a select in kohana 3.0 and I am using the necessary rules. However the validation does no "kick in" when the user does not make a selection.
<select id="discipline" name="discipline" >
<option value="0"> -- Select One -- </option>
<option value="-2">Information Technology and Engineering</option>
<option value="4">Business and Training Seminars</option>
</select>
That was my select, now i have applied these rules to the post array before i check for validation errors.
$post = Validate::factory($_POST)
->rule('discipline', 'not_empty')
->rule('discipline', 'numeric');
When I submit the form without making a selection, the form submits and the rules should stop it.
Any ideas ?
Your still putting a value for the first one, as 0. Leave the value as value="". 0 is numeric and considered not empty.
Replace 0 with blank string
Add ->rule('discipline', 'in_array', array(array(-2, 4))); to check that selected discipline is within valid collection.
string empty first option
<select name="fruit" required>
<option value="">select fruit</option>
<option value="banana">banana</option>
</select>
then some css may help
form:invalid button[type="submit"], form:invalid input[type="submit"] {
opacity: 0.5;
cursor: default;
}
