nuBuilder Forum

Hi,
I have a form, created with fastforms. After creating the fastform, I added a new field directly in phpmyadmin. How do I create a new object for the new field in the form in nubuilder?
Thanks!

Hi,

From the Wiki: https://wiki.nubuilder.cloud/ ... hp/Objects

There are 3 ways to add an Object to a Form.

1) When using the Form Builder. (Fast Form)
2) By cloning an existing Object.
3) Or you can create a new Object the long way by:
Clicking the Object Button on the Setup Tab of the Home Page.
Clicking the Add Button at the top of its Browse Form.
Filling out your new Objects' properties (see below).
Clicking the Save Button at the top of its Edit Form.

I usually do it by cloning an existing object in the Edit Screen:

- Double-Click an existing object
- Click the Clone Button
- Change the Object Id
- Change the Label
- Change the Position etc.

Thanks for the quick response!

Ok I got it to work after I realized I had to manually enter the new object information everywhere. After I made the new object and placed it in the right form I expected it to show up everywhere else automatically. I am curious why the terms "label" and "ID" from the setup-object tab are referred to as "title" and "display" under the setup-forms-browse tab?

They are also called like that in the Form Properties Dialog but are referred as Label and IDin the Object Dialog (Edit Screen)
