[ckan-discuss] Function that controls which fields to be posted

Tue Mar 12 15:19:20 GMT 2013

Just a kind reminder that we also need to implement 

def form_to_db_schema_api_update(self):

otherwise the fields won't save once we went back and made any changes. It does the same thing with form_to_db_schema. 

Thanks!

Unlike the example extension, I want to add a field at the 1/3 phase where user are asked to fill in some basic info. The related html should be package_basic_fields.html. I initially follow the tutorial on customizing the field and successfully stored the field added in new_package_metadata.html, but can't get the fields in the 1/3 phase stored. When I look into the _parsed_post_vars from the WSGI variables, my customized fields is not being posted.
