I'm a bit thumped on this one. On my site: www.mystorkparty.com a user creates a large registry for her baby shower. Is there anyway to create and save a populated registry and then let the user can just click auto populate and her registry form has a pre-populated form which she can edit further?
Thanks in advance.
Do you mean pre-defined code for a form? In that case, yes you can. Rails was meant to keep repetitive coding at a minimum and you can just create your own .gem file like "myForm.gem" that will generate the proper code for you and route it to a controller giving you the MVC structure.

I'm developing an app in which I need to show come "coupons" I get from the API. I also have a "liked coupons" page where I need to show the ones the user has liked. I'm facing 2 problems here:
1- I don't know how to store likes, should I implement a local database for everything or should I ask our back-end team to save the liked/not liked state on the server?
2- I have a model class for coupons, and I have a coupon_list widget which is a horizontal listview.builder(). the problem is that some coupons are being showed in 2 or 3 different lists and I need them to all turn to liked when user likes an instance from a single list. how can I do that? (I want to do something like working with pointers in c++, passing the ACTUAL variable instead of it's value so it changes globally)
I would like to suggest you to store it in server as well. (Ask to your back-end team to add parameter) So that if user logout or sign in from different device "liked coupons" data will be available in all cases.
And for 2) multiple coupon entry you have to manage it via unique id. Like every coupon has its unique series no / pattern num. So you can put condition on that. i.e. Add "unique_no" to liked_list from all available list of coupon
Solution
Use Shared Preferences! This is something like a database on the device you are currently running. So if the user makes a like you can save that on their device!
To add Shared Preferences to your app look this video
Hope it helps!

good day
I need your help for the following case:
The activity nature of the client is very dynamic
Need to have a dynamic form (he wants to create many form every day by himself in runtime). And add some components in the runtime.
He doesn't have a standard form so he need every day to create new form
For example he can make today a form with group of input text and group of check box and table and tomorrow he need to make a new form with input text and radio and table also etc..,.
In addition he needs to achieve and save it into database to use it and retrieve it later , and he wants to save every form with its UI contents which he created in runtime to be able to view it later on the jsf page.
So he want to save created form contains data into database
And also he wants to arrange the component on the page by his own way
And I putted this case in OTN :

I am using Joomla3 with tinymce editor. I have created one module and adding one params in textarea
I am adding iframe code
in text area
but it's not saving. If i am save normal text string then it's saving
Please help me
I believe you need to add a filter to your xml code.
such as:
filter="RAW" or, probably more appropriately, filter="HTML"
This will keep Joomla from cleaning your code. There are a number of filters available to XML fields when creating modules. You can examine the code here: https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/master/libraries/joomla/filter/input.php#L167 to see the exact list.
What user group is the account you are using a member of? Super Users and Administrator group types should have no filtering set by default but it sounds like you might need to edit those settings.
From the main menu:
System > Global Configuration > Text Filters (tab)
You will see all the available user groups for you website. The group your user belongs to should have a Filter Type of No Filtering. Another important note is its better to add the user account to a group with the permissions then to arbitrarily adding it to a group type typically reserved for registrants, guests or low-level editing.
I have the next issue.
I have a custom object called 'Application', and I have this requirement:
"Show all Contacts related to an Application. Create a field on Application object, must be read only".
I solve it with apex code. 'Application' has a lookup to Opportunity, Opportunity to Account, and all my contacts have AccountId, so this way, I get all the contacts using apex code in a trigger.
But, I've been ask to change this to a Formula field in Application object.
So, my issue is next. I'm not able to get all contacts with advance formula editor, because they're not part of any object. I have no master-detail relationship.
Does any one know how can I achieve this using configuration? I should not use apex code for this req.
Thank in advance guys.
I don't think you can do it.
In formulas / merge fields syntax there's no way to go "up, up then down" (Application -> Opportunity -> Account -> down to Contacts related list). There's also nothing that would let you loop through Contacts (and display what? Ids? Names? Emails?). Roughly speaking you can only go up through dots.
You might want to explore path of "cross object workflow" rules but I imagine that when I add a new Contact to Account it should somehow "spread itself" to all related Applications? There's no straight way to fire a workflow on delete too - so you'd eventually end up with inaccurate list.
I'd say trigger was a good solution. Maybe it ws unoptimized but if it has to be in a field - tough.
There might be a fairly simple way of achieving that by embedding a visualforce page within Application page layout.
This should be doable with pure Visualforce (so technically there will be no Apex code ;))
Something as simple as
<apex:relatedList list="Contacts" subject="Application__c.Opportunity__r.AccountId" />
would be a good start (if you want your own layout and not a rel. list - you should be still able to pull it off with <apex:repeat> or <apex:pageBlockTable>.
There's one BUT here: it's not a field, just a display trick. Forget about using it in reports, mobile applications etc.
Another way - would it be acceptable to be 1 click away from these contacts? You could make a report "Account with Contacts", filter it by Id of one Account and later use "URL hacking" to change the filter depending on from which Application you'll click it. This link could be either a formula field or a real custom button/link. Technically - it's pure config, no apex & VF.
You can read more about URL hacking at Ray Dehler's excellent post and specifically about dynamic Reports here or here.
for example i've got a form with some input fields(every form and it's inputs with validation rules are stored in database).
Every input got it's own OnChange() which posts json (i.e. new value, input element name, ...) to controller for validation, if validation passes the new value must be saved somewhere until user clicks submit button, which will save all data to database table.
And here i'd like to ask, what this special place between ui and database can be ?
p.s.
also if user closes browser/form the next time he'll come back i need to ask him if he would like to start from an empty form or fill form with values he previously entered there.
Thank You !
Cookies or intermediary database table would work for this case.
for an intermediary database like that, you could use something like MongoDB, it is really easy to get it started, you just work with the classes you have, don't need to setup any schema, you just save the objects
http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/CSharp+Driver+Tutorial
If you are submitting the entire form at the end, why can't you just store the values at that time? Is this a multi-page form(s)? Why not allow the database records to be partially filled? You could always add a bit column to mark the record as complete or incomplete. This would be much simpler than duplicating your table structure.
