Hi,
I want to implement the "Direct list editing" feature on my website, following Max's example in the CCv5 FAQ.

Following the example, I have defined an alias as follows:
WED.alias:<input type="text" name="WED[{WED.cf_id}][alias]" value="{WED.veld}" class="form-control A" size="5"/>

I have included the "Update List" control button and have updated the Permissions section as explained.However, when I test the result and make an update in the new alias field, it tells me "Save Failed".

Any clue where to search for an error?

Hello JvdStel,
I'm not a Chrono professional, but after checking your new post, I think that the following links may help:
Direct list editing
P.S: I'm just an automated service😉

Hi Johan,

The first check is to turn the CC Debugger on - that I think will show you the DB Query that is being created. You turn the Debugger on near the bottom of the Front List > Settings tab.

You might also look at the page HTML to see what values are being set in that HTML.

Thanks Bob, that helped,
I have created the following code to allow the user to edit the "WED.veld" field directly in the list via this code:

WED.veld:<input type="text" name="WED[{WED.cf_id}][veld]" value="{WED.veld}" class="form-control A" size="5"/>

What I would like is to limit the number of choices via the "select" input. So I guessed this would do the trick:

WED.veld:<select size="1" class="" title="" name="WED[{WED.cf_id}][veld]" class="form-control A" size="5">
<option value="">Maak uw keuze</option>
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="1a">1a</option>
<option value="1b">1b</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
<option value="2a">2a</option>
<option value="2b">2b</option>
</select>

I guessed wrong, because it does not work as expected. Looks like only the <select...> line is read and none of the <option value...> lines. Any suggestions on how to implement this?
