[Improved] Display Object: Use a Procedure

[admin]

Up to now, the Display Object has been a read-only field that shows the first column of the first record retrieved by an SQL Select statement.
With the release of nuBuilder-4.5_June_2024.08, it is now possible to display the output of a procedure in a Display Field.

This new feature is particularly useful for running complex queries that cannot be executed in a single PDO query or for displaying values based on different user Access Levels or User Permissions.


How to Set It Up

1. Create a Procedure. Ensure your procedure outputs data using echo()

2. Link the procedure you have created to a Display Object:
