Form Builder Question

Hey guys I was wondering, if with the form builder module whether it is possible to populate dropdown lists from DB,ODBC, ldap to NDS or AD etc?


For things like email lists etc etc?

Not without development.

Yeah I thought that would be the case…


Something to add to our list I think…



Just trying to work out the best way to share dropdown lists between forms etc without having to duplicate

If you configure the question in a Form Section, then you can link the Section (with the question intact) to multiple Custom Form assets. :slight_smile:

I thought there could be a simple way like that, to atleast share content between the assests…


Will add the database, network hook-ins to our list of development wish list for the greater community… :slight_smile:

We have already started going down this track in 3.8, though not quite to the level you require. But, we have begun the process of including generic external database connectivity to MySource Matrix. :slight_smile:
