Sub-Form of Semantic Forms
Hey, dear All

Is there any possible to build a Sub-Form inside Semantic Forms? Or, can we create a Sub-Property which belongs to a Property?

Right now the case is, we want to create a Form, and for Property A, there is no direct content for A, but A has for Sub-Properties, A1,A2,A3 and A4, and we need to input content into A1-A4.

Is there any possible way to do this?Many thanks in advance.


 * I'm not sure I understand your question - but "show on select" might be helpful here. Yaron Koren (talk) 16:50, 5 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Many thanks, as your suggestion, I use the "mutiple template" and it seems to fit with our target, but still we need to talk about it tomorrow.


 * But many thanks anyway, for every help!!

Weirdness using "button" formlink
For some reason when I try to use any formlink with type BUTTON, it doesn't work but instead the popup only loads the main page of the wiki. Weird thing is that I've checked the form action and it is indeed the correct string (even pasted it in to ensure that it would bring me to the right form entry). Just tested this on SF 2.4 (fresh download) and MW 1.17. Thinking back, this actually broke a while back. Maybe I posted here already? Not sure. Weird! It might be conflicts if nobody else is experiencing this. Thorncrag   20:10, 5 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Don't know about the release version. Just tried it on an MW 1.17 with the current dev version of SF and it worked alright. Maybe give it a try. There were several changes in the handling of parser functions. --F.trott (talk) 20:19, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

Lingo Extension
Hi. I have started using Semantic Mediawiki 1.7.0.2 wit Semantic Forms 2.3.2

If I have words or phrases in Field names that are on a page called Terminology and used by the Lingo Extension then the extension is interfering with the rendering of the "Edit with Form" page. The inserted Spans are a problem.

I will have to be careful with my terminology!


 * Fixed in the dev version of SF on SVN. --F.trott (talk) 22:57, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

Preloading data into multiple instance template
What preload data into form with multiple instance template? --Pastakhov (talk) 10:24, 6 March 2012 (UTC)


 * If I understand the question correctly - you need to add another index in the query string; see here for one example: http://discoursedb.org/wiki/Special:FormEdit/Item/Some_Item?Opinion[Topic][1]=ABC (sorry, it was too hard to make it a link). Yaron Koren (talk) 01:52, 9 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Yes, thanks :-) --Pastakhov (talk) 06:40, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

fancybox not being loaded by form pages
I am having trouble with uploading files in my forms. Fancybox.js does not seem to be loaded with the page. I am running mediawiki 1.18 and SF 2.4.1 at first i thought it was a problem with resource loader but i saw SF is on the list for "Resource loader compatible extensions". If it's not showing up on the page, how do i go about tracking down the problem? Can i manually load it somehow?


 * I have no idea - are you using a skin other than Vector? Or are you using some other extension that might be interfering with the Javascript? And what version of Semantic MediaWiki are you using? Is this a public wiki, by any chance? Yaron Koren (talk) 01:28, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
