Combo list not showing in form layout 22 Mar 2015 08:31 #12888

If I select a field type as Joomla user, it should show a combo list in the form layout, but instead of showing combo list, it is just showing a text field.

Similarly, If I select a field type as Access, it should also show a combo list in form layout, but it is also showing a text field.

I have tried using joomla 3.2, 2.5, 1.7 all are giving the same result in the sand box.

Am I missing something or is it a bug?

This is happening in both Backend and Frontend layouts.

This is a classic one.

In the fields tree, open the node of your FK and take the sub-field to show as label.

That's it.

Although I found this tool some time ago I just started learning experimenting and building this first component on Monday and now on Thursday afternoon it's already online. Although I already had a working version done with another tool this is much easier to build and at the end you have the freedom to own your own component. Once you know how to use Cook you will boost your productivity as the learning curve is really moderate compared to many other tools.
