Can you get the value of a param to use in another param?

#1

For instance:
{
“category” : {
“label” : “Category”,
“type” : “select”,
“initial” : “null”,
“options” : “dynamic:category”
},
“1st” : {
“label” : “Featured”,
“type” : “select”,
“initial” : “null”,
“options” : “dynamic:{{category}}”
},
}

In this example I’m trying to pass the value of {{category}} to my dynamic counter part in php. I have it setup to handle multiple responses based on the values from the category select. but “dynamic:{{category}}” doesn’t set properly. I’m looking for it to call something like “dynamic:6” not “dynamic:{{category}}” as a string. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello @tonalqualityx,

Thanks for writing in!

You can use dynamic:{{dc:param:category}}.

Kindly let us know how it goes.

so
“dynamic:6”
this works. however, all the following don’t
“dynamic:{{dc:param:category}}”
“dynamic:{{dc:p:category}}”
“dynamic:{{category}}”
“dynamic:{{$.category}}”
“dynamic:$.category”
“dynamic:{category}”
“dynamic:” + “{{category}}” ------ Things got desperate after this point
“dynamic:” || “{{category}}”
“dynamic:” + {{category}} ------ Really doesn’t like it ending without a quoteation.
“dynamic:dc:p:category”
“dynamic:{{dc:p:category.options.value}}”
“dynamic:{{category.options.value}}”

I’ve tried several other things that were beyond longshots there wasn’t any point in showing you them. and I’ve verified that {{dc:p:category}} is resolving to 6 in a text field on that component.

Using dynamic content as the value of a dynamic options selector is not supported. We can write a feature request for it though. Have a great weekend.

Thank you for your reply. It would be awesome if that could be implemented. I’ll find another way to do what i need to do. As a side note. Pro theme rocks! you guys are all superheros! I really like how it’s built to give the user a wide range of possiblities and your support is great. Thanks again and keep up the good work.
