I have a dmx-repeat checkbox in a form and I want to use their values as records for a database table. A checked checkbox = 1 database insert. If user checked 3 checkboxes with id 1, 3, 6, then there will be 3 database insertion at once on form submit.

Hi Firdaus,
Do you need to insert 3/6 same records?

Hi Teodor,
Yes, for example, there are 10 tags, and when user ticks 3 of them, they will be 3 data inserts for the values of the checked tag inputs etc. On single form submit.

I've tried to follow Data Binding methodology but failed to emulate it (there's no Object>variable in the Globals>$_POST of the repeating input).

So the tags should be inserted in the same database field, comma separated, or should they be separate records?

The records are not the same. Each checkbox has a unique value. I want to insert the value respectively. 1 value = 1 database row.

I have a dedicated database table for tags in separate record.

If possible, please send a link to this page, where we can check it.

I'm unable to upload the page at this stage. What I want to achieve is something like this tutorial, the only differences are;

I want to do insert instead of update
checkbox instead of text input
using App Connect instead of Data Binding

What are the steps I should do with App Connect + Server Connect? I don't have problem with repeating checkbox step as I already have it set. The only step boggling me is how to insert their values into database at once, just like you did it on that tutorial.

Hello there,

I still need response on this. Let me know whether to insert values of repeating checkboxes into separate database row is possible with your extension.

I want to know the steps so no website to show yet.

Hi Firdaus,
Here is how you can do this.
Add names to your checkboxes, containing [] at the end, for example: name="checkbox[]"
Then import your form in your action file.
Create a repeater step, use the checkbox group, imported under post as an expression.
Add insert step in the repeat step - and use {{$value}} as a value.

Thank you Teodor that's definitely helpful. I previously did the same steps, but instead of typing {{$value}} manually, I selected $value from the repeater which produces incorrect code missing ].
