Feature requests[edit | edit source]
| Feature | Comment |
|---|---|
5680 '5681' (Extension:IDProvider) |
Similar to <unique number> in PageForms (see here). Solved with Extension:UniquePageTitle |
| Sorting function for multiple fields | |
| Image preview on file upload | Theoretically already provided in the code, see /resources/VisualDataForms.js |
| Works in newer versions of VisualData - Custom code adjustment for handling nested and multiple values - should be committed to VisualData | |
| For long pages: Scroll back to the previous page position after saving popup forms | |
| Internationalization for values in select and dropdown lists | Possibly via switch statement, see: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:VisualData/Queries_in_forms |
| Display label instead of schema name in tabs in forms | |
| Add sub-items and fields in forms based on queries | |
| Ability to open forms from the content block of another form (form button is currently not rendered) |
Bugs[edit | edit source]
| Bug | Comment |
|---|---|
| Fixed with v1.0.5 | |
|preload= does not work in form definition (currently commented out in /includes/VisualData.php from line 1602). It is also designed to render entire pages and write them to the target page. It would be better to load normal text, e.g. {{My Template}}, without rendering it into the page

|
| Import script does not work due to incorrect version check 1.41 instead of 1.41.0 | |
| Fixed with v1.0.5 | |
| VE (VEForAll) does not load in inactive form tabs | |
| mw.widgets.UsersMultiselectWidget throws an error |
