I've created quick create form of a custom entity ABC. In entity properties, I also enabled Allow Quick Create Form. Lastly, lookup of parent entity is also placed on the form and marked as business required.
In normal interface, I can confirm that the quick create form is populating without in problem. But unfortunately quick create form is not populating in unified interface.
Any idea why the quick create form is not populating in unified interface?
You have to add the Quick create form in the UCI app assets.

Hi and thanks in advance! Admin on Rest is a great base to start from to quickly build simple REST admins. I have a scenario where I would like to display and edit related records without leaving the parent. e.g Editing the Options of a Multiple Choice Question from the Question Edit View.
I have managed to implement a modal dialog that allows me to create/edit the Options(passed along as a record prop), however I'm stuck at trying to refresh the list of options on the Question View once I have successfully saved the Option.
I'm relatively new to React. Would appreciate a nudge in the right direction.
ReferenceManyField doesn't provide controls for filtering or pagination. However, it's quite straightforward to create some. Start by creating your own component using ReferenceManyField as a base. Store the page, sort, and filter as properties. Add methods that change these properties and re-trigger fetchReferences. Add buttons (pagination, filtering, etc) that trigger these methods.
But if you'r new to React, this won't be easy. I suggest you learn React first.
I work with Orbeon Form Builder. I had created a form with the builder interface and I had published it. Now I want to find the file myform_created_with_builderINterface.xhtml but I don't know where the path of it to edit it.
I need this file because I would like to edit and implement some XML request and I don't know how I can proceed to make it work.
Where is the file of the form that I have created before with the builder?
The published form definition is stored in a database when you save or publish it.
If you haven't made any changes to the Orbeon Forms configuration, form definitions and form data are stored into the built-in eXist database, whose files are under WEB-INF/exist-data.
If you have configured a relational db, form definitions and form data are stored in one of the database tables: orbeon_form_data for non-published form definitions and form data, and orbeon_form_definition for published form definitions. In both cases, look at the xml column.
The cross-database way of retrieving it though is to use the persistence API: an HTTP GET at the right URL will give you the form definition, provided the service has been open or secured.
I am still unclear why you need this "to edit and implement some XML request" though. Better work with the source of the form definition, which you can see in Form Builder's Edit Source, or using custom model logic.
I am newbie to joomla! component programming. i am creating a MVC component that users can reserve some dates.
my component should have a simple settings view that admin can manage the component.
i used some references but i have problem to create this settings view and it doesn't work.
to do this, i created a #__mycomponent_settings table and a row that holds settings data and also added these files:
com_mycomponent/controllers/settings.php
com_mycomponent/models/settings.php
com_mycomponent/models/forms/settings.xml
com_mycomponent/tables/settings.php
com_mycomponent/views/settings/view.html.php
com_mycomponent/views/settings/tmpl/default.php
I defined my fields in the xml file and loaded them to the view correctly, but the real problem that confuses me is i really don't know how to use JForm and JTable correctly to submit and save data in the database or to retrieve previously saved data and put them into the fields. or how i should use JToolbarHelper to submit data or what must be entered in the action attribute of the form. i used save button of JToolbarHelper but it takes me to the
com_mycomponent&view=settings&layout=edit
but i didn't define any edit layout everywhere in me code!
i get so confused and will be appreciated if you help me.
I'd strongly suggest using native joomla settings logic, instead of storing them on database.

CRM 2013 allows a customiser to add multiple "Quick Create" forms against an entity. In the case of our ISV product, this is potentially useful since we always avoid customising "native" forms in favour of creating our own form.
However given that:
Quick Forms cannot be deactivated
Quick Forms cannot have security roles defined against them
There is no mechanism as a user to select or change which Quick Create form to use
There is no mechanism to set a preferred Quick Create form
What is the point of multiple Quick Create forms?
My goal was to create a custom Quick Create form against the Account entity to avoid changing the native Account Quick Create form but there is seemingly no way to allow my users to use this form.
Typical - Despite earlier research, I found the answer within minutes of posting the question on SO:
Although you can define multiple quick create forms, only one quick
create form can be used by everyone. The form everyone will use is set
using the form order. Quick create forms cannot be assigned to
security roles and they do not provide the capability for the user to
switch forms.

I'm creating a solution which will be released as a managed solution for Dynamics CRM Online.
However, the customer will need to put information in when installing the managed solution to allow interaction with outside services.
For example, when you install the LinkedIn solution, you need to add your log in information to allow the CRM to access your LinkedIn account.
How do I add these parameters to the a solution, and then allow the customer to update them if they change?
Cheers
Edit:
To add to my query and following the answer below.
To make sure the process is correct in my head.
Option 1.
I will create a custom entity for storing key/value, or username/password combination.
I would then create a customisation page for the solution using html web resource, which when submitted, javascript would create a single record to hold those values.
I then need to link every record that needs the values stored in the custom record - I'm not sure how this would be done without editing a workflow after the storage record has been created, to link each normal record to the storage one.
Option 2.
Create an xml web resource that stores the values. Create the html/javascript resources to update this using the configuration page.
I can then use a javascript function to obtain that data when the custom entity is created, perhaps to populate hidden fields for storage and use behind the scenes.
I can't find any tutorials on getting started with using xml in this way - can you point me in the right direction?
I typically create a "Configuration" entity that has Name/Value attributes. This is also useful when you have Dev/Test/Prod environments that require different configs (e.g. URLs, credentials, etc).
Another approach is to using Plug-in configurations or Web Resources to store that type of information. The Plug-in configuration is pretty straightforward if you can have the customer use the Plug-in Registration tool to modify the value.
