Dynamic Editor Select type values

sogorman

Hello! Looking through the API docs I am unable to figure out how to change the available options for a select field. What I need to have happen is when an editor is actioned I will make an ajax call to determine which select values should be allowed based upon some other record value then I need to update the editor with the available options.

Hi,

To change the options, you would use the update() field method of the select() type. For example: editor.field( 'myField' ).update( ...options... );.

What I need to have happen is when an editor is actioned I will make an ajax call to determine which select values should be allowed based upon some other record value

You might want to take a look at the dependent() method which can help reduce the boilerplate code for that kind of thing.
