Multiple associated field from one section #4
Comments
A potential use-case for the selection of two fields from one section, as funnily enough I wanted to do this! If you have 2 fields in a section like ID and Name, the ID is unique and is the primary reference, but the name is the 'friendly' reference that you're actually able to parse and understand, you might want to show both (a la SSM). So rather than the field outputting:
It could output
As I say I have this issue in a project now. The bit that links the section is an ID, but the ID's are pretty arbitrary and it would help to include something friendly along with them. Of course this is best achieved by a similar system to SSM where you control the output, that's a really neat feature and may be planned anyway - from some limb of the association monster :) Just thought I'd throw that out there! |
The thing is that this extension (like SBL) will return both values as separated items, so you'll get:
This is a perfect use-case for a Reflection field actually. |
I'll check out the reflection field, it's not something I've used before (just heard about), thanks!

Currently, it's possible to select multiple fields from one section in the field settings. This causes some weird issues. The field should only allow the selection of one field per associated section.
