Poulating Dropdown from a read_data action

tshirley 01 Nov, 2019
Hi,

I have a form that I need to pre-populate from a read_data action, so that the database record can be viewed or edited in the form.

For most fields using {var:read_data32.Data32.field_name} as the value works.

However if I use this in the "Checked Options Values" of a checkbox group, or "Selected value" in a dropdown, it does not populate the field - nothing is selected.

What is the correct way to do this? I guess I can do it in custom php code but I expect there is a way of achieving it without code.

Cheers

Tim
