moving data from one module to another

Design and Skin Customization

I have a custom aparna-generated module which consists of a long bid form. My customer fills this in when bidding a project. When the project is approved, each approved item in the form then becomes a task in another custom module.

Currently they are filling the tasks in manually week to week. I would like to automate this by moving the data from the fields in the bid module over to task module, keeping the bid form. There are additional things to set up to facilitate this for the client, such as they want the bid module data displayed in tab or cascading menus together with the task data. Each bid item is organized into categories (tabs) with a button to click to enter it as a task.

This is beyond my jamroom comfort zone, but maybe if I had something similar to look at, at least in terms of moving data from one module to the other, I could possibly figure it out. Barring that I could pay someone to at least get me started or even do the smart work depending on the cost.

Let me know your thoughts, please.

Date drop down showing date when not entered

Design and Skin Customization

Is there a way to have date dropdown menu fields NOT show a date when there hasn't been a date entered?

multiple image uploads on image form field

Using Jamroom

No photos are displayed if I change it 'value'.

multiple image uploads on image form field

Using Jamroom

This is in the update section:

If I add this to the update section, one photo is displayed:

If I don't add that at all, multiple photos are displayed (but I don't get the multiple upload function). Apparently, the form designer image field can already display multiple images. Evidently my module code above is missing something it needs to do that?

multiple image uploads on image form field

Using Jamroom

I have a custom aparna-generated module with an image field create in form designer. I've added the code above to its index.php file and it's allowing multiple images in my custom module, but it doesn't display any images in the update form. In testing, I uploaded multiple images and it works as expected, but no images are displayed upon viewing the update form. I know they uploaded and are in the datastore successfully, because if I go back to original index.php file, the multiple images show in the update form. How do I get the images to display in the update form with the multiple image upload enabled?

Share your Performance Check Results

Announcements

My Arvixe shared sites are around 325. Bluehost is around 650. I have bluehost sites on both regular shared and "pro" shared and the scores are roughly the same for both. I can't get video to process on either of these hosts, by the way. It's not a big issue for me; just mentioning it.

I got 1246 on a shared host jbservers website which seems really odd to me. I've actually considered this host to be much slower than all my other sites. Today it was acting OK, though I wouldn't say any speedier than the other shared hosts. Maybe they've made some changes in the last month or so?

invalid upload extension in IE

Using Jamroom

A client is unable to upload images via Internet Explorer. The error returned is an invalid extension (). I've confirmed that the images are jpg files and I can upload them fine. She can also upload them using Chrome. Just wondering if there might be a solution (besides not using IE, that is).

It's an Aparna-generated custom module.

multiple image uploads on image form field

Using Jamroom

I would like to have an Image upload field on a form take multiple images. (and then I need to display them, of course)

How might I go about this?
