How to use a dropdown field in a where-clause of a read-data-action

Eddi Bournell 30 Jan, 2021

I populate a dynamic dropdown (dd_field) from database by a first read-data-action.
I want to use the Option Data Value "id" of the dropdown-field in a where-condition of a second read-data-action.
What's the right syntax? id= {data:dd_field} id= {var:dd_field} do not work. With a constant as criteria id=20 ist works.

{data:field_name} works after the form is sent with a field named "field_name", is this what you are trying to do?

Did you try ChronoMyAdmin for managing your Joomla database tables ?

The tutorial-Videos are fine for beginners, but....I would prefer to buy the "CF7 Cook-Book". Would be a bestseller, I guess.
