Error in SPJS-vLookup_frontend.js in v4.4.4.2 (July 31, 2019) fixed

There were an error in the file SPJS-vLookup_frontend.js in the latest version 4.4.4.2 dated July 31, 2019 that made text fields prefilled when adding a child item show two times like “Text value, Text value”.

Download the package again from here and update the file found in /DFFS/plugins/SPJS-vLookup_frontend.js and ensure it shows as v2.2.135.

Sorry for the inconvenience,
Alexander

Copy the list definition to a file when filing a DFFS support request

The code snippet linked below is used to dump all the list fields to a file to enable me to recreate the list when investigating a possible bug in DFFS.

How to use the snippet

Go to the DFFS enabled list you want to copy, and change the URL from …/Lists/ExampleListName/ExampleViewName.aspx to …/Lists/
ExampleListName /NewForm.aspx.

Hit F12 to bring up the developer console and paste the code directly in the console and hit Enter.

This will download the field definition as a file that you can email to me or attach in a forum post.

The file only contains the name and description of the fields, and choices in a choice field so there should not be any compromising information in the file.
