Why isn’t there no Depends On for fields in Web Forms. Is it planned for future releases, if no, will anyone direct me on how to do it myself?

Thanks

@israrwz, you can display fields conditionally based on “depends on”

Lets suppose, you have a select field, with “Option 1”, “Option 2”, “Option 3”

And 3 others fields “Value 1”, “Value 2”, “Value 3”

Do you only want that:

Value 1 should be displayed when Option 1,
Value 2 should be displayed when Option 1 or Option 2 and
Value 3 should be displayed when diferent of Option 2 or Option 3

So you can add the below conditions in each fields, to archive this:

In Value 1

eval:doc.option == "Option 1"

In Value 2

eval:in_list(["Option 1", "Option 2", doc.option)

In Value 3

eval:!in_list(["Option 2", "Option 3", doc.option)

Where doc.option is your select field.

Thank you @max_morais_dmm but this only works only in the Customize Form and when creating or editing a DocType.

But when you are creating forms for the web frontend in Website module’s Web Form section there is no option to set the Depends On for a field.

@israrwz it’s hard to do, due many required parts of the standard forms is not supported by Web Forms
