Is it possible to have the same field in 2 tabs in a module?

Hi Rizwan Rizwan,

Have you tried formula?

Try to add same field id in second field using formula window.

Example :

Field 1 is test1_c & 2. is test2_c

Add formula for field 2  just open calculate formula & add only test1_c.

Hope it will help..

Yes, you can show same field in two tabs by editing record.php file of that particular module. Through studio, it is not possible. But updating record.php file of that module, you can display same field in two tabs. Just copy array of field in put it in next tab and arrange the indexing properly. save the record.php and click on repair rebuild link in admin. You can see one field in two tabs.

Since a given field can only appear once in a layout:

I've found three ways to address this:

1. Create a new field and set the calculated value as the field you want copied

2. Create a new field and use the "related" function for the calculated value (this will also copy the value in a related module)

3. Create a new field and use the "concat" function (I've done this with a few fields where I want the values of two fields to show)

Note: These fields can't be edited since they are calculated values.

Enjoy!
