SOLVED: Element view on new record creation

[dimoss]

Joomla 4.2.9
Fabrik #4 Gamma 3
Cassiopeia
vanilla J & F installation

Hi,

In Fabrik 3 a user can still see (but not able to select a dropdown value) when the dropdown element has set with a different access level that the user has. Upon form submission the value is recorded in the db.

In Fabrik 4 with the same settings on the dropdown element the value is empty and it is not recorded in the db.

Below examples:

Fabrik 4

Element:

Settings:

Fabrik 3

Element:

Settings:

In both cases the user access level is 'Registered' and doesn't belong to the group of DB Managers who have 'DB_Manager access.
Do I miss something?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hmm...
I can replicate, but it's the same with F3 (php8, latest GitHub).
What are your F3 versions (Fabrik and php)?

Hi @troester

Fabrik 3.9
PHP 7.4
Joomla 3.9.29

I didn't upgrade to Fabrik 3.10 on this site to check how it looks like.

Ok, it's no dbjoin issue but element default in general.
I assume one more of 0!= '' in php8 somewhere in elements.

So, in components\com_fabrik\models\element.php line 1528 do

if (!$this->isEditable() && (int)FArrayHelper::getValue($data, 'rowid') != 0)

Unfortunately the issue remains. The user cannot see the value as readonly on record creation and as a result the value is empty and not recorded on db. On the contrary the value is visible as readonly on edit an existing record.
The dropdown has been set as TEXT field in the db.

It's working here.

It's working here.

I deleted and re-created the dropdown and worked also for me.
Thanks a lot @troester
