Validating additional fields about yii2-dynamicform

[wbraganca]

Ensure you have added all the fields you want to validate the 'FormFields' attribute.
How is the code in your view?

Hello,

I have this:

<?php DynamicFormWidget::begin([
                'dynamicItems' => '#form-qualifications',
                'dynamicItem' => '.form-qualifications-item',

                'formId' => 'dynamic-form',
                'formFields' => [
                    'employee_qualification_position',
                    'employee_qualification_start_date',
                    'employee_qualification_end_date',

So I have 2 problems so far:

1. When I click [+] on form to duplicate the fieldset, only the first set validates
2. Datepicker is not working on duplicated fieldset

[wbraganca]

Not working with jui datepicker.
Try: http://demos.krajee.com/widget-details/datepicker

[loter]

Thank you! Will try to replace jui datepicker with krajee's!
What can be the problem with cloned fields validation? any hints?

[wbraganca]

I'm unable to reproduce your problem. I need to see the whole view code for analysis :(

[loter]

Are you trying it on Yii v 2.0.0 or 2.0.1, maybe it makes difference? if you're on 2.0.1 then I will upload entire code, thanks!

Suggestions:

Remove the "createMultiple" method of model "Employees" and add in a class that inherits from the \yii\base\Model.

Example:

Directory: app\base\Model.php

<?php

namespace app\base;

use Yii;
use yii\helpers\ArrayHelper;

class Model extends \yii\base\Model
{
    public static function createMultiple($modelClass, $multipleModels=null)
    {
        $model    = new $modelClass;
        $formName = $model->formName();
        $post     = Yii::$app->request->post($formName);
        $models   = [];
        $flag     = false;

        if ($multipleModels !== null && is_array($multipleModels) && !empty($multipleModels)) {
            $keys = array_keys(ArrayHelper::map($multipleModels, 'id', 'id'));
            $multipleModels = array_combine($keys, $multipleModels);
            $flag = true;
        }

        if ($post && is_array($post)) {
            foreach ($post as $i => $item) {
                if ($flag) {
                    if (isset($item['id']) && !empty($item['id']) && isset($multipleModels[$item['id']])) {
                        $models[] = $multipleModels[$item['id']];
                    } else {
                        $models[] = new $modelClass;
                    }
                } else {
                    $models[] = new $modelClass;
                }
            }
        }
        unset($model, $formName, $post);
        return $models;
    }
}
