Selectize not available on new repeater sections
This is related to a recent forum post: https://forum.grabaperch.com/forum/04-28-2018-selectize-not-instantiated-on-new-repeater-sections-causing-related-fields-to-be-unresponsive
It appears to be a JS issue rather than anything to do with what's possible with Perch. However, I have a different issue, where I am using Runway relationships with repeaters.
HERE'S A 30 SECOND VIDEO OF THIS HAPPENING — https://www.dropbox.com/s/f8haizeqs556by1/Perch%20Selectivizr%20Issue.mp4?dl=0
Here is my code
<perch:repeater id="ingredients_list" label="Ingredients">
<perch:before><ul></perch:before>
<li>
<perch:content id="ingredient_quantity" type="text" label="Quantity" /><perch:content id="ingredient_quantity_type" type="select" label="Quantity Type" options="Items, Table Spoons|tbs, Cups|cup" /><perch:related id="ingredients" collection="Ingredients" label="Ingredients"><perch:content id="ingredient_name"></perch:related>
</li>
<perch:after></ul></perch:after>
</perch:repeater>
Why I'm using repeaters with relationships
My scenario is that I'm building a recipe collection.
- Each recipe has multiple ingredients
- 'Ingredients' is a separate collection. Ingredients are stored as a collection rather than a simple list because each ingredient also has an associated image.
I'm using repeaters because each ingredient for the recipe also needs a quantity and quantity type.
Here is an example of the output on the page:
Chocolate shake recipe:
- 1.5 frozen bananas
- 1 tbs of flak seeds
This actually appears to work on the front end, but the back end Selectize UI is not responsive for multiple entries unless I save/reload the page.
Thanks - we'll take a look.
