Hi Ronn,

Local vars are used when you want to have a specific vars for your view/action, which may be called by another view/action, what are you trying to do ?

Thanks for the reply Max.

I am trying to understand it as most of the fields have an option of local vars. How to enter the var option: eg: {var:field_name}. ??

basically it's a way to pass variables to the View/Function from different sources and use the same var name locally, something like in Connectivity6 where you could pass variables from other places!

Hi Ronn,

I am not so experienced but what i know you can use fields as example a text field where you add like "Name" or something like that.
Then you can call them back where you whant.
