Numbering of results instead of showing ID? was created by aschuch

Hi,
I would like to show the data base entries in the frontend with numbers, instead of IDs. Why? Because the IDs don´t show the real amount of entries. If you delete an entry, the ID is not assigned anymore...

Is that possible? Thx

In the meanwhile I found the setting for "Display Counter Column" in the PRO-version, which I set to YES.

However, the numbers are written into the first column, which is "eMail" in my case.
Also, the column titles are shifted by one column to the right.

Is that a bug?

Thanks.

Hi,

I added this feature just to the latest version of the Visforms subcription.
There are a lot of different views that can display data and although I thought I had tested them all, it could be, that I have missed something on one of the views.

Can I have a link to the data views please?
If it is a bug it should be found and fixed easily.

Regards,
Aicha

I recommend you the new and up-to-date documentation for Joomla 4:
docs.joomla-5.visforms.vi-solutions.de/en/docs/
Most of this also applies retrospectively to Joomla 3.
Please only ask 1 question per topic :-)

Hi,

ok, yes this is a bug.
If you do not enable "Display Detail" the columns are shifted. With "Display Detail" set to yes, everything is fine.
Obviously I have not tested with that specific set of settings....

I'll post you a fix as soon as possible.

Regards,
Aicha

Hi,

please open the file components/com_visforms/views/visformsdata/tmpl/data.php
(Make a copy of the original file first, just in case....)

at line 63 ff you will find the following code

Code:

$n=count( $this->fields );
if (!(isset($this->form->displaydetail) == false) && $this->form->displaydetail == true) { ?>
	<th class="data-id"><?php
	if (!empty($this->form->displaycounter)) {
		echo '<th></th>';
	}

Please replace it with

Code:

$n=count( $this->fields );
if (!empty($this->form->displaycounter)) {
	echo '<th></th>';
}
if (!(isset($this->form->displaydetail) == false) && $this->form->displaydetail == true) { ?>
	<th class="data-id"><?php

Please make sure, that you replace exactly those 6 line!

You can see, basically the code

Code:

if (!empty($this->form->displaycounter)) {
	echo '<th></th>';
}

is moved out of that if statement.

Regards,
Aicha

Hi Aicha,
I am not a programmer, but I can do copy & paste

However, looking at the code, I think something is wrong. At least the <?php tag needs to be closed with an > ?

However - I did as you said regarding "enabling Details" to yes, it is working now and its OK for me to have that additional column with link to a detail page.

I guess you will release the code fix with next update...

Thanks, Alex
