Load data into form field (CF5)

Hi,

I' want do upload data from a bd table into my form. I read the FAQ (http://www.chronoengine.com/faqs/70-cfv5/5219-how-to-load-record-data-from-a-database-table-into-your-form.html) but I'm still width doubts.

This is what I have:
1. Two fields ("name" and "email_to") with the same name as the database;
2. "DB Read" action, just place it in your "on load" event and placed ABOVE the "HTML Render form" ;
3. Select de table "contact_details" and selected "No" in "Enable Model ID;
4. In the condictions box i have:

<?php
$user = JFactory::getUser();
return array('user_id' => $user->id);
return array("name" => $form->data("name"));
return array("email_to" => $form->data("email_to"));
?>

But the data are not loaded to the form, what is wrong?

Thanks

Hello nbento,
I'm not a Chrono professional, but after checking your new post, I think that the following links may help:
How to load record data from a database table into your form
My form data isn't saving to the database correctly
My CFv5 form data isn't saving to the database correctly
How do I save form data to a database table?
P.S: I'm just an automated service😉

Hi nbento,

Only the first of your three return lines will be used but that should work OK to get the record fro that user_id.

Please drag a Debugger action into the On Load event, then submit the form and post the debug results here.

Bob

Here is the debuug results:

Hi nbento,

That looks as though it is working - except that you have two records for the same user_id. How do you plan to handle that situation? Maybe some house-keeping is required?

Bob

Yes, i have two records for each id, because my website is multilangue.
How could i filter by the user language, database field "language= pt-PT"?

I changed my condictions to:

<?php
$user = JFactory::getUser();
return array('user_id' => $user->id, 'language' => 'pt-PT' );
?>

But still nothing!!
