Select custom options issue – Validation – Selected value does not exist

  • Resolved Mick Tindall

    I have a form where a select box populates a list of certain types of users that have accounts on the site (using forminator_cform_render_fields – this works fine).

    I also have code in place that fills out other parts of the form when a user is selected (also working fine – forminator_render_form_markup)

    I’m having an issue when the form is submitted – validation issue on the select field “Selected value does not exist.”

    I’ve looked at other posts on this topic and implemented forminator_replace_form_data – but I’m either doing something wrong, or that isn’t the solution I need.

    Pastebin to form export – https://pastebin.com/mzsKqjKb

    Pastebin to back end code – https://pastebin.com/wTE8zwsN

    Any help would be appreciated. I just want the form to go through and save (I don’t care about if the user dropdwn value is saved or sent in the email etc – but I don’t know how to indicate that to forminator)

    Hi @livewire1407,

    Our developers have provided an update, and they have identified that your code is rendering only on the frontend, not the backend. To fix this, please replace the following code from your workaround,

    if (!empty($siteUsers)) {
                    $newOptions = [];
 
                    foreach($siteUsers as $user) {
                        $newOptions[] = [
                            'label' => $user->display_name,
                            'value' => $user->ID,
                            'limit' => '',
                            'key'   => forminator_unique_key()
                        ];
                    }
 
                    $wrappers[$wrapperKey]['fields'][0]['options'] = $newOptions;
                }

    with the following,

    if (!empty($siteUsers)) {
                    $newOptions = [];
                    $user_names = array();
 
                    foreach($siteUsers as $user) {
                        $newOptions[] = [
                            'label' => $user->display_name,
                            'value' => $user->ID,
                            'limit' => '',
                            'key'   => forminator_unique_key()
                        ];
                        $user_names['options'] = $newOptions;
                    }
                    $select_field = Forminator_API::get_form_field( $formId, $wrapper['fields'][0]['element_id'], true );
                 if ( $select_field ) {
                     Forminator_API::update_form_field( $formId, $wrapper['fields'][0]['element_id'], $user_names );
                     $wrappers[ $wrapperKey ][ 'fields' ][ 0 ][ 'options' ] = $newOptions;
                     }
                  
                }

    I hope that helps, please feel free to get back to us if you need any further assistance.

    Kind Regards,
