Hi guys,

I’m using the SAEF and am wondering if there’s any way to tell it to ignore a specific custom field when listing them?

As in:

{custom_fields field_id="not 132"}
{if required}<span class="redtext">* </span>{/if}{field_label}

{field_instructions}

This doesn’t work, but you can kinda see what I’m after. I want the SAEF to list all the custom fields except field_id_132.

Any thoughts?

Anyone? I could really use a solution, if there is one.

The best way to handle it is to create the form, view the source, and remove anything you don’t want.

Does that help?

Hi Sue.

That was my backup plan.

I was hoping to find a more elegant solution, seeing as I have a lot of forms like this.

You might look around at Solspace’s offerings.

Or see the show_fields parameter =)

Hi Lisa,

I tried the show_fields options with no luck. The trick is, I still want the custom field to show up as part of the SAEF, just not where it does in the custom_fields section.

Ah, going down the “create the form, view the source, and remove anything you don’t want” route was time-consuming, but fairly painless. Once you get one form adjusted, the others become simply repetition.

So, I’m happy. 😊

Thanks everyone.

Glad that was a workable solution for you. Feel free to start a new thread if you have any more questions.
