TAV1702 Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 Hi guys. Using Simpilot's version 5.5.2, I added a drop down box in my registration form and have 3 choices in there to make. I logged out of the site and went and looked and the drop down works like a charm. The issue is when a candidate makes a selection via drop down and submits, it reverts back to choice number 1. Anyone ever had this issue? apache server php version : 5.6.25 MySQL : 5.7.14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators servetas Posted October 24, 2016 Moderators Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 What do you mean it revents back? Does it happens when the user is returned to the registration form due to any issue or you refer to the data posted in the database? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
web541 Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 Just confirming this is a custom field? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAV1702 Posted November 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2016 (edited) Sorry guys I forgot I posted this. Yes it is a custom filed that you can create in the admin panel. What I mean by reverts back is, The drop down has 3 choices 1. Pilot 2. ATC 3. Both So If I register I choose ATC and fill out rest of registration and submit, bingo bango its done. I get a welcome email but I have to wait for admin. Ok on track so far. Now when an admin goes to that pilot in the admin panel and looks, it shows he or she always chooses the first option. I had 4 people test this for me 3 indifferent countries on different PC's obviously. And I explicitly made them understand to NOT choose the option number 1 Pilot. Also I chose it to NOT show the custom field in the profile and guess what shows up in their profile? Yep! A nice drop down box with 3 choices in it that means absolutely nothing. lol I think I will just do away with the drop down as the guy that owns the site decided to go another route with this. BUT curious why this is happening. Edited November 4, 2016 by TAV1702 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Parkho Posted November 4, 2016 Moderators Report Share Posted November 4, 2016 The value of the custom field somehow doesn't get passed to the function and since the function is written to choose default value(1.Pilot) in case it gets empty value from the field, the from will be processed with default value.
