Hi Chris,

You need to configure the where conditions field with the correct condition:

table_field:{data:dropdown_field_name}

Hi Chris,

The error message does not have any clues, please test with the single value and adjust the dropdown field name, does it work ?

Hi Chris,

How do you add the dropdown field to the connection ? is it inside a form view ? and where exactly is this view ?

Hello Max,

I found, mystake in name field... Sorry

Now, I need include a test in where fields like this

if({data:select_sg}!="") fonds.societeGestion:{data:select_sg}

in fact apply the filter only if not empty...

And How to put a label in the dropdown for the empty value like "select your company"

Hi Chris,

the empty label can be added in the options box like this:
=Select your company


The if not empty check can be like this:

fonds.societeGestion:{data:select_sg}/-

The /- at the end of the value means that the parameter will be skipped if empty.
Or in php:

<?php
if(!empty($this->data("select_sg"))){
return [["fonds.societeGestion", $this->data("select_sg")]];
}

Hi Chris,

I have just tested this here in a dropdown options:

=test
y=Yes
n=No


The first option has empty value and text = "test"

I also checked your page, the "Nature de produit" is working as expected, the first option is empty.
