Thanks for your reply.

Anyway, I've just installed a chrome plugin name ' autocomplete' and it just works fine.

Thanks again.

I'd been testing in the Reality Plugin and not the Listings template. I installed the Listings template, and was still able to search on the home pages list section, but was unable to get the form to autocomplete when adding a listing. I checked the form and auto complete is set to on for the form, so I'm unsure why Chrome doesn't add data to it. It could be because it doesn't consider the fields to be personal data (e-mail address, name, etc).

Unfortunately there isn't really anything I can do to fix the problem. You could try searching the Chrome store for an auto complete plugin that will automatically fill a form with any data, or suggest to your client that they use FireFox or IE instead while using the CMS.

Thanks!

I use the Basic Listings V 1.00, could you please install it on your pc to have a test?

Since I have used different PCs to have a test on it.

No problem with Firefox and IE, only chrome caused problem,

So it should not be the setting problem in chrome.

Thanks

I think this must be a browser specific problem. I've installed the reality plugin on my test machine, and was able to add autofill data when creating a new listing, and to the search box on the homepages section. The only other suggestion I can think off is to upgrade to the latest version of CMS Builder, but I can't see why this would make a difference. If you would like you can send a second level support request and I can take a closer look at the problem, you can find the form here:

I am using Windows 7 and CMSB ver 2.09

I have no problem to have an auto complete in the search field and all the fields in every pages in the CMSB.

The only pages that I cannot perform auto complete is the Listings Editor and Homepages Editor.

i.e. 

/admin.php?menu=listings&action=add

and

/admin.php?menu=homepages

Thanks and please advice.

I've done some local testing in the latest version of Chrome on Windows 7, and the autofill is working for me correctly, I tested it out in my accounts section. What operating system are you using? Is the issue that the browsers doesn't have a history of data entered into the form to use? What happens if you enter some data into the search field, carry out a search, then delete it and try start typing the same text again? 

Cheers

Greg

I did press ctrl+F5 many many times and even use another PC that never access my CMSB,

however, auto complete still not work in both listings editor and homepages editor in chrome.

Please advice, Thanks 

I think you might just need to do a full refresh in Chrome, it's probably cached the JavaScript file and not registering the change. Trying pressing ctrl+F5 a couple of times and see if that works. 

Have a good weekend. 

Cheers!

Sorry for trouble, it works in Firefox and IE but not in chrome.

I think I have to give up chrome.

Thanks a lot and have a nice weekend.

Thanks for you quick response.

However, whatever I delete the whole line or change the off to on,

it still not work.

Please refer to the attach jpg.

Thanks for clarifying. The reason that forms don't autocomplete in CMS Builder is that we have set autocomplete to off in all the form tags:

<form method="post" action="?" onsubmit="tinyMCE.triggerSave();" autocomplete="off">


The reason we do this is you might be entering personal data into the CMS and you don't want your own/someone else's data being inserted by accident. Also the autofill on some browsers can be hit and miss, I've had my browser entering in a post code into a field called email before, although they are getting better.

If you wanted to enable this feature you just need to change the 7th line of admin_functions.js in in the cmsAdmin/lib directory:

  $('form').attr('autocomplete', 'on');


So this will make all forms inside of CMS Builder have autocomplete set to on in the form tag.

As this is a customization of CMS Builders core code we can't support any issues created by this change.

Thanks!

Thanks for your reply.

I think you misunderstand what I mean as well.

I think what I want to ask is how to enable 'Auto-Fill Entries' in CMSB?

For example, in the search field in the top right corner of this page,

if you did search the term (auto filling) before,

and if you input (a) in the search field,

The term (auto filling) will come.

PLEASE REFER TO THE ATTACHMENT

In the old product Listing Manager,

Let's say, if I did input (abc) in a field before,

and now if  I input a letter (a) in the field,

The word abc will come.

But nothing comes in the field in listing editor in CMSB.

That's what I mean.

Sorry for the poor english.

Thanks

I don't know of any easy way to filter records by date created or date modified, but here's one way to accomplish what I think you are asking.

In CMSB you can sort records lists by clicking on any column that is in the ListPage Fields, (admin > section editors > general tab)

So, if you add either updatedDate or createdDate to the ListPage Fields in your editor, you can sort your existing records by those dates and pick the record that you want to modify.

Hope that helps to answer your question.

Thanks for your quick response and sorry for late reply.

This is really useful.

However, I think you misunderstand what I mean due to my poor English.

Please refer to the attached jpg, then you should know what I mean.

Let's say, I have a field called Date Added in listing editor,

In the old Listing Manager, once I input 2013/08, the all the previous input started with 2013/08 shown and I can just simply pick the one I need. 

However, in the CMSB, when I input the data in the Date Added Field, nothing shown.

Please advice.

Thanks a lot.

This should be fairly straight forward to set up. If you log into CMS Builder, then go to the Section Editors section, then click the modify link on your listings section. This will bring you to a list of all of the fields in the listings section. If you click modify on field you want to add a default value to, a dialog box will open. From here you can add a default value that will appear when a new record is created. I've included a screen shot that shows which field you need enter your default value into. 

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks!

Greg

If enable auto filling in the text field will save me a lot of time.

Please advice.

Thanks
