SPJS Autocomplete (SPJS-ac) – plugin status with Modern DFFS?

[E J]

While trying to carry over some autocompletes from our Classic DFFS (SP2013) form, it doesn’t look like the plugins like SPJS-ac are being included.

When (Modern DFFS) CustomJS has an autocomplete like:

spjs.ac.textField({blahblah});

Chrome’s debug console is returning:

Uncaught ReferenceError: spjs is not defined

In the “extra scripts to include” on the CustomJS tab, I’ve added SPJS-ac.js and some others. While the “spjs is not defined” error is gone, it still seems to be returning errors that appear tied to those SP1013 plugin files:

Uncaught ReferenceError: GetUrlKeyValue is not defined

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'textField')

With Modern DFFS, how should we do autocompletes?

Hi,
Plugins and scripts / custom js from the Classic DFFS cannot be used in the Modern DFFS as all code is rewritten using a different method.

I’ll add support for converting a textfield to an autocomplete in a similar way as in the Classic DFFS – most likely over the weekend.

Awesome – that’s exciting to hear. We’ll keep a look-out to see how that works!

I have added support for autocomplete on single and multiline text fields in the new version 1.0.11.0 – let me know how it works out.

Hi Alexander
can Autocomplete in ModernDFFS be expected to include these features like in oldDFFS?
– setFields
– multiselect
– searchFields
Is it generally possible? Are you planning to do it? Time estimate? 🙂
Many thamks Michal

Hi,
Multiselect is already supported if you use a multiline plain text field.

The other two is currently not supported, but I’ll see what I can do about adding it. I’ll take a look during the weekend, but cannot promise any specific delivery date.
