migrate from ACF 9 to Lucee 5 express (test):

[davdav dd]

Hi,

I am new to lucee, and doing some test to perhaps migrate.

I have a big problem with posted data from forms.

In ACF, when using Form.FieldNames, the fields order are in the same order as the fields presented on the form,
but with Lucee the order change, and this is a big problem for me.

Any idea what to do to keep the order?

Regards,
David

David,

Why is the order important to you? Maybe there is another less fragile way of accomplishing what you need.

Hi,

This order is very important because a lot of pages are based on this propertie to parse posted data. (tables)

Don't understand your answer but maybe this might help you. See Brian's blog post for details.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your help.

It is exactly what is not working with lucee!

[davdav dd]

This problem as been accepted as a bug and resolved by LAS.

Thanks to the team!

Just have to wait the next release....
Any idea when?


https://luceeserver.atlassian.net/browse/LDEV-871

[Andrew Dixon]

Hi David,

As it has already been "deployed" you can get it today from the snapshot provider, either in the admin or directly from:

http://preview.lucee.org/download/?type=snapshots

This is true for anything in JIRA that is marked as "deployed" and has a "fix version" set.

Kind regards,

Andrew

But Andrew, I wanted to wait 12-18 months so that it matches ACF release times!!!

I am logging a bug! ;)
