I think, that i need rise the question another time...

i'll try to explain me, i have this code:

1. but it does not work, the "query string" does not send any information to the form, i don't know why.

in the same page i have this code below

2. whit this code the "query string" works and sends the information,

i want to know what i've done wrong in the first case. why does not work "query string" in the first code?.

thanks man!


 * You're supplying all sorts of information that's not relevant. Please just answer my questions - specifically, what does the URL look like after you click on the #formlink button? Does it contain the words "Quote" or "Author"? Yaron Koren (talk) 22:40, 3 July 2014 (UTC)

OK
yes, the URL yes, looks like this after i click the button #formlink:

/atcaresdemo/index.php/Especial:FormEdit/Quote?Quote%5BAuthor%5D=Pruebas%2FQuery+String

The URL contains the words "Quote" and "Author"

the name of my wiki is : atcaresdemo

the the "pagename" is: Pruebas

The form name is: Quote

The template name is: Quote

The variable is: Author


 * That URL looks correct... does the "Author" field show up as blank, or does any text appear in it? Yaron Koren (talk) 00:01, 4 July 2014 (UTC)

answer
The "Author" field appears as blank. No data

this is the link where i've the example.

Link to the example


 * Okay, thanks. This is very strange - I tried it out, and Semantic Forms seems to be ignoring the query string almost completely. Have the SF code, or core MediaWiki, on your site been modified in any way? Yaron Koren (talk) 23:21, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

maybe, i'm not pretty sure, my old programer modified some extensions, i´m going to take a look at the SF code. The strange is that the "query string" works for "#autoedit" but does not work for "#formlink" or "forminput"... anyway i'm pretty greatful by your help. if the SF code it's fine, have you any idea that what's happening?
