Edit Multiple Tables 04 Nov 2011 17:52 #428

What I want to suggest is something that I use a lot, the ability to edit multiple tables within the same form...

Let me give an example, so you understand better.

Lets say we have a table for Personal Info, Address, City and State

- So I want to save data's such as name, gender, eye color and etc to "Personal Info" table
- Save the street address, number and neighborhood to "Address" table
- Save the City name to "City" table
- and last, save the State code to "State" table...

This is just a generic example, so you can understand better... I know that it is better ways to work with those info's, but I don't want to populate data's on other tables, to only use as Foreign Key call, I want to the user fill the info and populate the database and those data can be reused somewhere else...

Is this possible to make?

Thanks

Yes, it is already in the list. We think about.

For exemple, a form with checkboxes to choose which data fields you want to update for a group of items.
Coding is now a piece of cake

For starters it's just so easy to design an app in a way that I'm used to i.e. database first then views followed by customization. The fork system is pure brilliance from a developer standpoint as I can override things and still add and update my projects with minimal effort! Truly amazing to be able to build components in Joomla using incremental refinement without having to do everything by hand. Thanks for the great tool! I am so much more productive now than ever and I can't imagine building components any other way!!!!
