Im using custom profile plugin found at http://library.logicsistemi.it/images/joomla/plg_user_testprofile.zip
I have created several fields, both, optional and required and they all work. But there is a tiny problem.
When I enter some value in that custom fields and submit the form it can happen that some fields dont pass validation (which is good). However values entered are cleared and I must fill all the fields from the beggining.
Demo: http://goo.gl/eH1G2
Enter some (not all) data under the 'legend' named User Registration
Enter some (not all) data under the 'legend' named Company
Informations
Press Register button
Error message will pop in. -
Data entered in the User Registration will be saved
Data entered in the Company Informations (which are custom fields)
will not be saved.
If all required fields are entered, form will submit data to database
(which is ok).
I want that data in the Company Informations are saved, so users dont have to type in all over again.
The problem in your demo is on the template you are using.
For some reason it gives Javascript errors. These errors blocks the Javascript client side validation and your form is submitted with invalid data.
If you want only server side validation you can modify the onContentPrepareData function in your plugin by loading posted information from the user state. To do this you have to permeform a different action when user_id is not set under "Merge the profile data." comment.
I think next week I will write a new tutorial on http://library.logicsistemi.it to explain this. For now try to fix your Javascript code.

Hoping someone might be able to help me out. I have a custom Drupal 8 module which has a webform composite element with some settings/properties that are fields where I can either enter a webtoken to capture some data from the form or simply enter some data for later retrieving on the webform handler side. The issue is that I thought this data would be included in $_POST but it's not so I'm trying figure out how I can retrieve the data after the form is submitted. FYI, I don't even see this data being stored in the "webform_submission_data" table so not sure where it's being saved. If anyone has some sample code it would be greatly appreciated.
My last thought was that this data could be retrieved via \Drupal::configFactory() but that doesn't make sense because the data there is static and if I'm using webtokens for these fields I'm essentially capturing changing data all of the time.
Per screenshot below, I'm trying get the authnet element settings data (charge amount, authorize.net profile) from either a custom handler or even a hook after user submits the form. Note that "first_name_on_card" is indeed available in the $_POST data.
After any AJAX event in the form (Upload image, add a new field collection row etc.) All Entity Reference fields go blank.
I have multiple entity reference fields, all using a view to get list options.
The issue is occurring on the node edit form.
On first page load, all entity form values are there, and you can edit and save them with no problems. However, If you edit any field that uses AJAX to update, then after ajax has run, all of the entity reference fields lose their options and only show "None" as the single option.
Can anyone think why this would be happening, and what steps I can take to either provide more info, or find a fix?
After using an AJAX field, and then trying to save the form, I get this error in watchdog,
TYPE form

USER collins
MESSAGE Illegal choice 7 in Venue element.
SEVERITY error
This obviously happens because the select lists are all empty, and illegal choices are detected.
heres a screencast of the issue.

Is there a way to use form API to rebuild the form and entity reference options after an ajax action?
I finally solved this.
There is a patch here... https://www.drupal.org/files/issues/entityreference-use-tokens-2010898-126.patch That allows you to use tokens in the Entity Reference Fields "Pass argument to view" field.
The problem was that after AJAX, the view I was using for the Entity Reference was losing its contextual filter argument. This patch, and the use of the token fixes the problem nicely.
Using Google forms, data can saved to the spreadsheet. Now i would like to apply validation in Username field for avoid duplication. How can add UNIQUE validation in google form field using Google script?
I think it is not possible to add validation for fields in Google form values by using Google Apps Script direcly.
One thing you can consider to change the settings in the Google form itself, if the Username field value is same as the Username that logged in to access that form. You can do this by checking the "only allow one response per person(required login)".
If the above solution does not apply for your requirement, the UiApp/Html Service in Apps Script will help you in creating custom forms.
You can create a custom form and write a custom function to get the Username field values using SpreadsheetApp class into an array. Before submitting the Form, compare the Username field from Google form with the list of username cell values that we got in an array and check for uniqueness.
Hope that helps!
I have a form, which at the moment is a simple HTML based one, that doesn't do anything.
What I'm looking to do though, is to be able to send an email once the form has been submitted and also save the data to the database.
The problem comes, with the email sending. In the form, there is a drop down menu. The menu items are items in my suppliers model/module, which have a name and email address.
So, when I select Supplier A, the form passes validation, it needs to send Supplier A an email and save the details (this shouldn't be too hard).
I'm just not sure how I'd get the email address.
Would I need to pass some kind of parameter to a custom sendEmail() method?
All help appreciated.
Thanks
UPDATE:
Ok, so before I do the email part, I'd like to store the data in the table, named test drive.
I've created the module in the admin and a form to submit data from on the frontend end.
But I cannot seem to get the data to insert.
All help is welcome
Thanks
For sending email see this Mage_Contacts_IndexController::postAction() action or
Mage_Sales_Model_Order::sendNewOrderEmail()
If You created module with model, you can get instance of that model, insert data and then save it or You can create ResourceModel and then execute SQL.
I have a custom entity in Microsoft CRM (4.0). The user has to input records however usually they have a batch of 20+ records that are almost the same apart from 2 or 3 fields which need changing. I know I need to write some custom code to enable this functionally. However can anyone recommend any methods to do this.
Ideally there should be a button that will save and create a copy as a new entity.
My Current way of thinking is to pass all the details as part of the URL and use javascript to strip them out on the page load event. Any ideas welcome.
Thanks
Luke
I found the answer here:
http://mscrm4ever.blogspot.com/2008/06/cloning-entity-using-javascript.html
I've used it and it appears to work well.
Since there are numerous fields, but only certain fields values are different, then i am thinking to set the default value to all the fields, so that users just need to alter those values when needed.
In my approach, i will hook a javascript function on load of the form data entry screen and use XmlHttp approach/Ajax approach to hook to the custom web service to pull/retrieve the default values of each fields. Or you can set those values at the javascript function itself, but the drawback of this, it's difficult to customize later. So i will choose the approach to hook to the custom web service and retrieve those value from some application parameter entity.
Your idea of providing a "clone" button is also a great idea, which means that it will duplicate all the attributes of the previous record, into a new record, so that it will save time for data entry person to customize the different value
EDIT
Since you would enter records in batch mode, how about customizing .ASPX screen to enter records. By customizing through .ASPX screen, you can use a tab , so that users can browse through tabs, to customize the value/attribute of each record.
There will be a "save" button as well as "clone" button to clone some common attribute or value.
I would create a custom web service that would accept the entity type and the ID of the record I'm cloning. Your "Save and Clone" button would call the service, and the service would handle the details of retrieving the current record and deciding which fields to set on the new record. The service creates the record, and sends the Guid of the record back to your button, which then opens up the newly created record.
This way, you avoid the messiness of setting/getting values in JavaScript and tying which fields to set/retrieve directly to your OnLoads, as well as avoiding the possibility of query string that's too long.
The service could easily be sufficiently generalized so that all you'd have to do is add your button to any entity, and it would work, assuming you'd set up your service to handle that particular entity.
One possible downside is that since the clone record button would actually create the record, the user would be forced to delete the cloned record if they decided they didn't want to clone the record after all.
