I have done this many time, but now.. I just CANT get it to work and its doing my nut in

I am trying to make the labels in my related combo list contain a bit more info

Original

<field name="territories"
				alias="id"
				label="MYCOMPONENT_FIELD_TERRITORIES_AVAILABLE"
				filter="array"
				type="relation"
				multiple="true"
				labelKey="territory"/>

What I am trying

<field name="territories"
				alias="id"
				label="MYCOMPONENT_FIELD_TERRITORIES_AVAILABLE"
				filter="array"
				type="relation"
				multiple="true"
				labelKey="{region} - {territory}"/>

But the list comes up empty.. i have tried each value seperatly, and they work, I just need to pull in the joined label

I have tried many derivations including a reference I found that was '%region%' but everything I do comes up with an empty list

How can I alter the label in an FK (related) combo in 2.8 J-Cook?

(that generates the new AS _joint_ sql code.. and if I alter the basic model for regions.. the concat does not work I will have another try as it HAS to be using that model somewhere along the way

MorganL Offline Platinum Member Posts: 438 Thank you received: 53 Karma: 15	Sorry for the delayed response Can you remember what you actually changed? I installed the new JDOM plugin, but that does not seem to be it. I am not in a position to completely download the extension at the moment due to not replicating some changes I made on LIVE to the builder yet.

When you uses a relation, the field is not using JDom, but a simple normal field. That was the change on this topic. Can I help you more ? Are you dealing with relation field ? Or JDom one ?
