You need to set $fb_linkDisplayFields = array('domain'); // when in a select, show domain name in the 'destination' DataObject and $fb_linkDisplayFields = array('client', 'domain'); // client and domain are ID's from elsewhere in the DO definition where you link from. It took me a while to figure that out last week, but when I did, I can write a basic form to database in a matter of minutes, based on what I've done thus far - mostly by just changing the names in the DO::factory calls Alister
