I bought the  SEBLOD Form & List Pack (2 plug-ins)

But i have not been able to make it work.
I added this type of field to a "content view". I set the name of the other content type
Nothing happened.
I added some fields and nothing happened.
The label is shown but nothing else.
Also i dont get what is the purpose of "options". When using it, in the backend a select appears with the list of options... but what is it for?

Hi Pablo,

Basic Usage:

Let's assume 2 different Content Types:

  • Blog Post (name = seb_blog_post)
  • Comment (name = seb_comment)

with the following setup:

  • Show Options = Hide
  • Form & Content Type = seb_comment
  • Storage = None (we don't need it)

Then each Blog Post should display the Comment form on their content view.

Make sure to:

  • Assign the Form field to the Content View of Blog Post
  • Put some fields within the Site Form View of Comment
  • Allow "Create" Permission of Comment

Advanced Usage:

Let's assume 3 different Content Types:

  • Blog Post (name = seb_blog_post)
  • Comment (name = seb_comment)
  • Review (name = seb_review)

with the following setup:

  • Show Options = Following Options
  • Options = seb_comment | seb_review | ...
  • Storage = Standard | Article | form_type (we need to store the value of the selected form)

Then while creating a Blog Post, you should pick which form will be displayed on the content view (per item).

Make sure to:

  • Assign the Form field to the Admin Form or Site Form View of Blog Post
  • Assign the Form field to the Content View of Blog Post
  • Put some fields within the Site Form View of Comment and Review
  • Allow "Create" Permission of Comment and Review
