Choices Callback Dropdown

  • Hi, I have a question about Choices Callback in the Dropdown field. If you don’t use callback (the values are manually passed to the Edit Choices field) the field saves the value selected in the dropdown. But when you use callback the field is saved as an index of an array rather than the value. It makes no sense. The idea of using a callback is to use dynamic values. But with this behavior changing the callback (returning changed array) will generate all sorts of bugs (invalid references). Can I change that behavior?

    Im sorry but I can’t share my code (it uses to many dependencies). Use any callback that returns simple string[].

    Hi @bcim

    It should save the key instead of the value/label. Is your callback array pattern similar to the below?

    $arr_fruits = [
   'apple' => 'Apple',
   'banana' => 'Banana',
];
