Confiforms - Dynamic fields possible?

[Glen Collins]

Hello. I'd like to know if it's possible to create additional fields dynamically by an action button. Say I have a set of fields which gather data associated with one another and if I wanted to "add" another block. Say....

Column 1                                   Column2

Pull down (Users)                       TextArea

[Add new row]

So if I needed to add a new row, press the "Add new row" button and another row would be added. The question is, possible and if so.....

How is the data handled in the dataset. Can it dynamically add fields on the fly? Or would some fancy concatenation be on play?

I've been looking at any dynamic samples in the wiki but nothing seem to be available. I'd love to know if this is possible.

Thanks,

Glen

Hi

What you essentially asking is a master detail form(s) and this is to be organized with 2 forms, at least

Each field in ConfiForms must be defined via ConfiForms Field Definition

In 2.21 branch (upcoming) we are working on allowing users to set up forms that can allow one form to submit to master and details at the same time.

At the moment you need to have a 2 step process to create a record in master form and then start adding your "blocks"
