Populating (Autofill) Field was created by Chicitadel
Hello,

I will be working on a project with tens of forms which have a high dependency on each other.

I'm considering adopting visforms to speed up the tasks.

A part from the joomla form autofill, is there possibilities of populating (autofill) a visform form A fields with data from visform form B or form C depending on user status or certain conditions?

Thanks Admin,

I updated to the beta version and found those new fields and options, though yet to try them to see how it works.

How can I use the insert statement, to inject new data into the Joomla users table?

I mean the possibilities of using VisForms form as default registration.

Hi,

you can absolutely not use this to insert data into Joomla! tables!
This would be an absolute unsupportable security risk!!!!!

You can only prepopulate visForms form fields with option lists (select, radio, checkbox group) with values that comes from the db through an SELECT sql statement.

I have implement a lot of code in order to absolutely prevent anybody form modifying anything in the database with the visForms sql features and I'm sure it is save.

Regards,
Aicha
