[#8068] Combination Groupfields and query field save error

I have 3 queryfields in an group, these are related just like: www.joomlapolis.com/documentation/345-cb-query-field/tutorials/18533-configuring-dynamic-usa-state-city-zip-fields-with-cb-query-field-plugin

The problem is when add a few group and i press save only the first.
So to refer to the example only the states are saved. While i also have select city and zip.
On the edit and save only city is saved. while i also selected zip.
On the third edit everything is saved.

Is it only doing this for query select fields? Try adding a text field and see if it still does it with text fields. Can this be reliably reproduced over and over on your site or does the 3rd save fix it permanently for a user?

I added a text field (it is on last position in the group) and that is directly saved on the first time

Yes,Over and over. with edits and adding.

If i have to give workaround instructions to the user it would be.

1. edit1, go to edit
2. edit1, only select state
3. edit1, click on save
4. edit2, go to edit
5. edit2 , now select only city
6. edit2, click on save
7. edit3, go to edit
8. edit3 , now select zip
9. edit3, click on save

Not very user friendly. :laugh:

If they want to edit city the have to start at step 4.

Ok, so it's saving the rows in the field group, but it's not saving the query selects in the field group. Is that correct? For example if I add 3 rows it saves those 3 rows, but the query fields in those 3 rows don't save except for the first query field in each row? Sounds like a potential issue in query field when it validates the dropdown options. Will attempt to reproduce the issue locally. Please also be sure your install is entirely up to date.

Ok, was able to find the cause. Have added a bug ticket, fixed the issue, and is now fixed in the latest available build release for CB Field Groups. Saving will be significantly more reliable now. Thank you for all the information as it was very useful in tracking this down.
