Hello web2py users,
I was experimenting with something ! and I ended up with a problem that is
difficult for me to solve ! please help.
the situation is as follow :
auth_user table has many fields defined + another set of extra_fields
defined but set purposely as writable=False, readable=False !
so that way, in a short registration procedure, the fields set to
writable=False and readable=False do not show up and do not matter !
but, on another page - when the long registration process is chosen, these
same extra fields will need to be set to writable=true and readable=True
in the controller, so the user can see them and fill them accordingly.
The problem comes in the context of a formwizard !
like :
def register():
STEPS = {0: ('Iagreeto','first_name','last_name','email',
'email_check','password','sex','birth_date','usertype','user_adress',
'user_city','user_prov','user_postalcode','Country'),
1: ('user_speaks','user_picture','user_description',
'user_story'), # final step
2: URL('user',args='profile')}
...
...
...
in the snippets of code shown, only the first 9 fields are normally
visible, so starting from the 'user_adress' ... to 'user_story', they were
set to readable/writable False !
How do I now set these fields to readable/writable True, before I generate
the custom form that will follow in the view !???
thank you
Don
I wonder ???
