custom add new item button

[Bryan Waldrop]

I am familiar with setting up the ADD NEW button in vlookup through the configuration but would like to move the location of it to a different place on the my edit form. Specifically I want to move it to a row of existing buttons governing other administrative custom “onclick” js functions. Can the add new child button function be added to a custom button rather than the one that is created through the configuration and can you share what that function would look like? Thank you!

Hi,
The easiest is to hide the original button by adding this to your custom css:

#newItemWrap_vLookupTasks {
    display:none;
}

Then add a button to your button-row like this:

<input type="button" onclick="jQuery('#newItemWrap_vLookupTasks > span').trigger('click')" value="Add new item">

Replace vLookupTasks with the internal name of your field in both snippets above.
