Displaying smart drop down selection from one confiform in other confiform
Asked by Prajakta:

Hi,

We have 2 confiforms -- A and B. The form A has a smart dropdown with values from a different form "C". Depending on the value selected in the smart dropdown of form A we display the next form B to the user. We want to display the dropdown value selected by the user in Form A in Form B with the other values of Form B. We tried to do lookup and set value in the form B but it does not work and the smart dropdown value does not get displayed in form B. Currently we display the smart dropdown from form A on the form B as well and the user has to select the entries twice -- once on form A and second on the form B. Is there a way we can display the value in form B without having the user to go through the selection process again?

Thanks in advance.

Welcome to this community

How do you display the "next form" - what is the method? Do you redirect a user to another page with a form B?

Alex

comments: author: Prajakta
body: Hi Alex,

Thank You for the prompt response! To answer your question, yes we redirect the user to a different page with the form B.

Best,

Prajakta


author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: In this case you can use this method <https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/Overriding+defaults+of+ConfiForms+Register+macro#OverridingdefaultsofConfiFormsRegistermacro-OverridingdefaultsandsettingfieldvaluesfromURL> and pass the selected value from a field to another form via url parameters


author: Prajakta
body: Hi Alex, Thank you, the help article you shared worked for me. The value from form A is now getting displayed in form B without requiring intervention from users. We have run into another problem now - the redirection to form B is done using dynamic Autolinks created when records are submitted in form A. The changes done help for new records created but do not work for the old records. Is there a way where we can update the Autolinks for old records? I tried to update via Import option but I do not see the Autolink fields for mapping in import.

Best,

Prajakta


author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: You really dont need to have an auto-link... Why?

But if you prefer to have an auto-link (and it works for you) then you will need to update your old records so auto-links will be regenerated

You can define a temp field in your form and have it updated via API <https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/ConfiForms+Server+REST+API+version+1#ConfiFormsServerRESTAPIversion1-UpdateConfiFormsFieldvaluebyfilter>

And then removing the field (definition)

Disable autoformatting of text
Asked by Katie Elliott:

I am trying to paste a large amount of text into a table, but some of it is being interpreted as code and is being autoformatted as code. It is not code and I do not want the autoformatting in this case.

If I put a ' in front of the "code" it will stop autoformatting, but it is far too many lines for that to be a reasonable solution (and also, the ' remains visible which is not acceptable in this case). This is only a recent problem, as I was able to paste very similar text last May without issues.

I see old answers about using the {noformat} macro, but that macro no longer exists.

What is the new way to prevent or to undo autoformatting of text?

Thank you


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Katie Elliott](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2061106) You can use the "Clear formatting" button in the editor or you can turn off auto-formatting in the editor via your settings.

Lag time when selecting a due date

Answers:

body: Hi Brenda,

Is this still occurring for you? I tested this out on my own board and I was able to edit and save the due date quickly.

I am using a cookery 'template' to make a catalogue of sewing patterns but I need help!
Asked by Alison Bailey:

I am using labels like 'dresses', 'tops' etc. When I do a test run of searching for tops, I get, for example **Tamara top** in **Freezes Well** on **Patterns** or **Sunflower Tank** in **Slow Cooker** on **Patterns.**This is in spite of changing the "Freezes Well" to "Women Knits" and the "Slow Cooker" to "Children's Knits".

How can I edit this so the original headings disappear once and for all? I am a complete newbie - already in love with Trello, but having a few issues!

Stuck on "create a new team" page.
Asked by GameBrew:

Hi!

I've started using Trello a few days ago with my team, been using it constantly for the past 2 days. I've since closed the browser and attempted to access the board again. The only thing I can access now is the "Create First Team" page, which is odd since I'm already a part of a team. I can access both my boards from the android app without a problem, and it is the same account connected to both.

I tried clearing browser cache and using another browser to log in, both failed.

Anyone else encountered the situation and know how to resolve this?

Thank you!

Dropdown list
Asked by Amit Soman:

Hello,

Trello newbie here.

I want to upload my list of 250 customers in a dropdown list that can be accessible in 2-3 different Boards.

I see I can create dropdown in a custom field - but that would only be in 1 board and would take long to upload 250 names.

Any way to create a "global dropdown"?

Calculate dates & custom fields
Asked by Amit Soman:

Hello,  
Trello newbie here.

I want to calculate

1. the numerical difference between the due date \& the date a card was added to the list. (the way I use the Board, this difference, is my on-time-delivery to the customer)
2. the numerical difference between 2 custom fields (both set as numerical fields)
3. the ratio of number of cards added to one board to the cards added to another board (which can be grouped by week or month)

I could not find a way in Butler to do this (or most likely I dont know how to do it).

Once I know this, I want to use it in a power-up (Reports by Screenly) to create a dashboard that shows my quality and on-time-delivery to the customer.

How do i view a board that i am invited to?
Asked by Stephanie Mcmanus:

My boss invited me to two boards related to work, and i already have a trello account with personal boards.   

When i accepted the email to join the work boards by clicking "Join the team" it takes me automatically to the board and i have access to it.

From there I cannot work out where to access the board. When i exit the browser to the work board it no longer shows up on my personal trello account and i have to manually go back into my email to get back into the board.  

Therefore where can i access the board that i am invited to and accept joining the team?

body: [@Stephanie Mcmanus](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4314086)

Based on your post, it should be under a team that your boss that created. If you cannot find, use the search bar. There is also a recently view section.

comments: author: Stephanie Mcmanus
body: Hi SGi Admin.  

Where do i find the teams? and the board does not come up in the search bar not in the recently viewed section.  

From the photos you can see that when i search for the specific board that i am a team member of nothing comes up. It is also not in y boards list, nor is it in my recently viewed after i refreshed the page.

The board doesn't show up in your lists because you haven't yet added yourself to the board. You can see it though by going to the Home icon in top left of screen and then selecting that team on left side of page when you are on Boards tab.

Add new option to Dropdown Custom Field through Butler
Asked by Travis Austin:

Hello there,

I am trying to get Butler to assign a new value to a Dropdown Custom Field. This isn't working if the dropdown doesn't already contain the input value as an option for the field.

eg: When "Buyer -\> Owner" button is pressed, set custom field "Owner" to "{{%Buyer}}" (Owner is a dropdown custom field)![prob.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/135219i35A0612F11C9216E/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "prob.png")

While it depends on your specific needs, I would share this idea with you. For my work with clients I have a board for each client. Every Friday at EOB I gather and select the job cards into a report variable and create a new card with the report variable inserted into the description field.
