Hi,

I saw the possibility to have a function in the set up menu called "Modify data". I don't find any info or tuto on it while i'm thinking it could be very useful for me.

Do you know where i can find any information on it ?

Hi gebonimo,
The modify data is used to build a custom data provider, after the modify data is processed you can use {var:modify_data_name} to access the data which was present in the modify data values, so if the data provider to modify data was {data:} and you add this in the data override:

x:y

Then {var:modify_data_name} will have all the {data:} values + x = y
Best regards

In my case i'm trying to modify a hidden field after a read_data.
So i have to put in the data provider {var:read_dataX}
And in the "Data override"
hiddenX:{var:read_data9}
Then in my db_save
Db_field:{var:modify_dataX}
Right ?

Hi gebonimo,
it depends, what is the select type in your "Read data" ?
But the scenario is correct, this is what you need to do, what is the {var:read_data9} ?
Best regards

The read_data should be an foreign key given by another field in the form (don't know if i'm clear).
​
read_data9 is the read data where i have my data to use into my db save. I can't succeed using the result of my read_data in my db save. So i thought this might be a good solution

Hi gebonimo,
​
You need to check the values you have with a debugger, and based on that you decide if the modify data is going to be useful, could you please post some debug info and let me know what you need to save exactly ?
​
Best regards

I would like to save the [CleEtrDef] as [CleEtrDefP], but in my db_save, when i'm trying to save it like this
​
CleEtrDefP:{var:read_data9} it just return me array as value. Not (in this case) 9[br]

Hi gebonimo,
​
In the "Data override on save" of the "Save data", use this:

CleEtrDefP:{var:read_data9.Data9.CleEtrDef}

Best regards

I did try it, and there is the debugger :

​
[br]Don't understand why it is not working... That's why i was thinking about the hidden field. I'm searching a solution since 3 days😀 [br]

Doesnt work with both solutions. I did change the select type but still no data

​
