Hi Jens,

I think the bit you need to look at is:

EPrints::MetaField::render_input_field_actual

 

Which has a call to $self->get_input_col_titles.

Did you set the render_input on the sub_field?

If so, you might need to set render_input on the 'owning' metafield (of type="compound" too).

 

A cleaner alternative might be to create a subclass of EPrints::MetaField::Compound (but it depends on how you normally like to do things!).

Take a look at the @ISA statements in all the EPrints::MetaField classes - some of them inherit from the Compund field already and might do something similar to what you need?

 

Cheers,

John

 

 

 

Hi Jens

 

                I’m not sure I understand your question.  Which table?  If you don’t want subfields to show on output, too, you need to write a render_output function.

 

                I suppose the other thing you could do is hide the input fields with _javascript_…  Just make sure you don’t save the bits you aren’t interested in, just in case.

Hi Adam

well, i can hide or do_whatever on the field while using the render_input property - but,  the table and it's heading is still there :-( Is it CORE? Any ideas?

best regards
Jens

What you need is an input renderer.  Set the render_input property on the field, and then I’m afraid you’ll need to write some perl.
 
Alternatively, make two fields.  Once simple, with only the things that need to be inputted, and one complex with all the other fields.  Put the simple one in the workflow, and then copy the values across to the complex one in the automatic fields function of your dataset.  That’s probably the simpler way.

Subject: [EP-tech] Howto hide sub-fields in workflow
 

Hello List

I have created a dataset with fields in which one field (type=compound; multiple=1) has subfields, but not all of them are intended for input by the submitters in the workflow. How can I hide individual sub-fields?

Merci Jens
