Guys

I know safercracker has been passed over to mainstream EE and I have logged this there too.  But you are always very quick woth support so I thought I would chance my arm.

I have an edit SAEF form than when I submit the form I get an error and I have working this out that it is because I have a standard EE relationship field and I have not got this in the form.  I don’t want this field changed or editable so I think I need to have it as a hidden field but just not sure how this is done.

Any ideas

Thanks

You should just be able to include a hidden input with the entry_id of the entry you are automatically relating it to:

<input type="hidden" name="your_relationship_field" value="123" />

Well, that {entry_id} would be the ID of the entry you’re currently editing, so that’s probably not what you want.

Now I get it, I have tested it with just using the entry_id of the proper club.

I’m still learning this so bear with me.  Surely with the channel players I should be able to use a variable as the value rather than the actual number.  But where do I get than from and what should it be.

{exp:safecracker channel="players" return="clubhouse/index" url_title="{segment_3}"}

                <input type="hidden" name="player_club" value="6793" />

                <fieldset>
                    <div>
                        <label for="player_name">Player Name</label>
                        <input type="text" name="title" id="title" value="{title}" />
                    </div>
                
                    <div>
                        <label for="measurements">Measurements</label>
                        {field:player_measurements}
                    </div>

                    <div>
                        <label for="player_bio">bio</label>
                        {field:player_bio}
                    </div>
                    
                    <div>        
                    {category_menu}
                        <label for="categories">Position</label>
                            <select name="category[]" id="categories" size="4" multiple="multiple">
                            {select_options}
                            </select>
                    {/category_menu}
                    </div>

                    <button type="submit" name="submit">Update</button>

                </fieldset>
                {/exp:safecracker}

How do you decide with club the player belongs to?

I have an EE relationship field to club channel and at the moment this can only be changed via the Control Panel.

Trying to do to much at once and wasn’t thinking.

I can use my custom member field exec_club that I store the entry_id for the club.

Gotcha, I think I understand now. I think this will do the trick:

{exp:query sql="SELECT rel_child_id FROM exp_relationships WHERE rel_id='{player_club}' LIMIT 1"}
                <input type="hidden" name="player_club" value="{rel_child_id}" />
{/exp:query}
