PHPRunner General questions

May be this question was answered but I looked around and didn't find the answere. I would like to be able to Auto-update fields. Automatically insert a value into field every time record is updated (UpdateBy, UpdateTime, IP address of user ) I am using the latest phprunner build. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
4.2 Build 359 latest.
I have the same problem understanding the answers provided in other threads.

I think it's not clear how to use this.
We know we need go:
Visual Editor -> Double Click a field -> Edit Page ->
Fill in default values and Check OFF (Enable, may be it's better to say CHECK ON ?) "Apply on Edit page as well".
Tried but still don't find the data to be captured any where.

  1. Auto update of user, ip etc. -- Which field hold these data ? Does phpr add a sperate field to hold these data?
  2. Suggest "Apply on Edit page as well" change to "Log Update/Insert by and apply to Edit Page as well."
    Thanks

It is because 'advertising' was just a little bit misleading. It's spoken in fact not about a new feature but about a better use of custom formated fields. All 'autoupdate' codes have to be written by you and they are not sophisticated now() or alike. They can to be written in any field formated as custom. Only (but very good) difference in build 4.2 is that these formatings are valid for both add and edit pages. Before it was only for add and for edit, you had to write events. So much about it.
