multiple select plugin and list reference

[BlueShadow]

I found this wonderfull plugin: http://dev.s-cubism.com/plugin_multiselect_widget
which looks awesome for the things I wonna do.
But I don't get ist to work with a field which has a list reference table
I want the field to be either empty of filled with an unlimeted amount of entries. So I had no required field at all:

Field('Fruit','list:reference Fruits'),

so I tried the following:

from plugin_multiselect_widget import (
    hmultiselect_widget, vmultiselect_widget,
    rhmultiselect_widget, rvmultiselect_widget,
)
...
db.Cocktail.Fruit.requires=IS_EMPTY_OR(IS_IN_DB(db,'Fruits.id','Fruits.Name',multiple=True))
db.Cocktail.Fruit.widget = hmultiselect_widget

which gave me the multiselect widget but When I mark a fruit and click on the register button nothing happens.

Hi TSmith,

I'm experiencing the exact same issue! Were you able to resolve this issue?
And if so, how exactly did you do so?

Regards,

Dennis.

This is working fine for me.

db.define_table('fruit',
    Field('name'),
)


db.define_table('cocktail',
    Field('fruit','list:reference fruit'),
)

from plugin_multiselect_widget import (
    hmultiselect_widget, vmultiselect_widget,
    rhmultiselect_widget, rvmultiselect_widget,
)

db.cocktail.fruit.requires=IS_EMPTY_OR(IS_IN_DB(db,'fruit.id','%(name)s',multiple=True))
db.cocktail.fruit.widget = hmultiselect_widget

I just put that in the models with the plugin in the modules folder, then I inserted some fruit and cocktails in appadmin. Everything worked correctly. This is basically the same thing you're doing right?  

  

Can you open the console and check for javascript errors?

apparently I did something diffrent back than. Now its working.

Thanks

I think I was a little quick to write it works. The multiple select shows but the entries won't move to the second box. So no function of the widget at all.

How do I open up the console to check for javascript errors?

If you use Firefox, open Firebug (you may have to install it) in the developer menu.  Chrome also have a menu item for developer tools and so Opera.
