Hi all,
I'm building forms using FormBuilder based on the DataObject config files,
such as database.links.ini
A problem I've run in to is when a field in a table references another row
in the same table. My links file looks like this:-
[shopcategory]
shopcategory_id = shopcategory:id
shopimage_id = shopimage:id
So a category can be nested within a parent category.
My problem is the auto-generated form - the 'shopcategory_id' field doesn't
get auto-generated as a select list containing all the existing categories
in the table.
Have I mixed something up and overlooked something? Do I need to customize
this auto-form to achieve what I want?
The 'shopimage_id' field in the form appears correctly as a select menu.
Regards,
