If you want to add a custom link in a “Heading or HTML” area, add this link like this:

<a href="javascript:" onclick="myOpenInDlgFunc('/DFFS/Lists/Tasks/DispForm.aspx?ID=107')">This is my link</a>

Add this to the Custom JS textarea in the “Field table, Custom JS and CSS” tab:

function myOpenInDlgFunc(url){
	OpenPopUpPage(url,function(result){
			if(result === 1){
				// dialog is closed with OK
			}else{
				// dialog is closed with X or cancel
			}
		});
}

HI Alexander

I have a list of projects. Some projects are ‘parents’ of other sub projects in the same list. The link is a lookup field called Parent which returns from the project list a project name.

In the project display and edit forms I am using a vLookup field to look for sub projects to display. I have a range of other vLookups successfully working, pulling in child records from other lists. This is the only one that isn’t working. Is it do do with the fact that list it is looking up itself?

A similar example would be if I had alist of staff and the managers where in the same list. Could I use a vlookup to list for a manager their reportees?

Thanks

Gerry

I’m using vLookup in the JSLink version. Everything is working fine with the forms, but I can’t figure out how to get child items in a list view. Do I need to take some extra steps to get the child items to show in a list view? I couldn’t find any vLookup instructions specific to the JSLink version. I have the vLookup field in the view and I have Tabular view enabled.

I installed the latest JSLink version (August 16, 2015) at the Site Collection level to use as a site column. I got the JSLink setup tool and set it for a site column and kept the defaults for {current site}, no license code (yet), and it created the site column. Everything seemed to go OK with the installation. I added a site column to the list where I want to use DFFS, but I don’t know what to do next. I can open a new form and I see the field “DFFS Loader by SPJSBlog.com” but how do I activate DFFS or get the UI for it? Is this an indication that something went wrong with the installation, or am I supposed to do something with one of the forms? I don’t see anything about this step in the documentation.

Thanks, Alexander- looking forward to it. This last request is most likely exempt with the lates vLookup update. For clarification though, the request was this:

Is it possible to modify the “add new item” link in vLookup to specify which version of a DFFS Newform would open? This is in reference to the DFFS: Multiple variations on one form post in May of 2015. For example, if I were to add an item to a list using a standard SharePoint Add New process I see one version of the form, but if I used a vLookup “add new” I would see a different version of the form.

Again, I think the recent updates take care of this problem for us. Please let me know if you need further clarification.

Hi Alexander,
Instead of typing the tooltips into the DFFS form directly I want to be able to have a list that will contain the tooltips, read them into the tooltip fields of the target list. This is so that I can allow another user to edit the tooltips without giving them access to DFFS to edit the tooltips directly. The idea is to create another list in sharepoint to contain the tooltips referenced by field name row by row. I can read the list using JQuery no problem, what I can’t work out is how to write them into the tooltip fields inside DFFS using JS. Can you help?
Kind regards
Ian

Thank you Alex.
I did deactivate the “Minimal Download Strategy” feature and the “/_layouts/15/start.aspx#” has been removed from the front of the list name; however, the DFFS settings are not saving properly. When I set up the Tabs it will work in the form, but when I go back into the DFFS settings the backend form does not have any of the previously saved settings and the configuration in the SPJS Configuration List still has the item listed as “undefined”.

Are there any particular screenshots I can provide to help determine the cause of the issues I am facing?

Nevermind….I understand now. Form Label….just hides it on the form….

But it would be nice if that heading did not show up in the list view, since there is already a column header…..

[Lana]

Hi Alexander,
When I select the Hide form label on vLookup column it is not hiding it, it is making the label part of the text displayed in the list view.
Please see screenshots in the doc attached.
Thanks!
Lana

Alex,
I have upgraded to the new JSLink(7/31/2015 version) and am experiencing a few rather strange issues. I have attached images of the issues listed below.

1. When I access the form it is not loading with the dynamics present until I refresh the page a few times.
2. There is no name listed in the Editing section of the DFFS backend page. When the rules are created and saved, it is saved with the name “undefined”.
3. After the dynamics are created and saved, whenever the DFFS backend page is accessed no dynamic information such as rules, tabs, etc. are found; however, if I view the properties of the “undefined” record in the SPJA-DynamicFormsForSharePoint list the rules are listed.

Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated!
William

I got this question:

Hello –
In your trigger section, there is the ability to hide the Edit button in the ribbon. Is there a way to hide a Custom Action button in the ribbon?

Thanks.
Christine

This can be done by adding a function to the Custom JS section (in the CSS and JS tab) like this:
(This example will hide the attach file button)

function hideCustomButton(){
	spjs.$("#Ribbon\\.ListForm\\.Edit\\.Actions\\.AttachFile-Large").hide();
}

Then you add this function name to the “Run these functions / trigger these rules” field in the rule.

To find the ID of the custom button in your ribbon, use the developer tools (hit F12) and inspect the button.

If the ID contains a period, you must escape it like in the example snippet above.

Hi,

Is there a way to include a calculated field in a Dynamic Form? I don’t see the calculated field listed when viewing the fields from the drop down in SharePoint 2010.

Thanks
