how to display particular fields in form Symfony 2.6 - forms

I need display particular fields in form in Symfony 2.6. I use a class Form. I have the folowing fields: name, email, message, send, recet. I need display all of them except recet .I try like this:
{{form_start(form)}}
{{ form_errors(form) }}
{{form_row(form.name)}}
{{form_row(form.email)}}
{{form_row(form.message)}}
{{form_end(form)}}
But, it's displaying all fields in form, it is not what I want. Even if i leave only {{form_start(form)}} and {{form_end(form)}} - its display all fields. Can someone help me wit this problem?

remove form_end, just close form with HTML
</form>
but then you must handle CSRF token generation by adding:
{{ form_widget(form._token) }}
{{ form_widget(form._token) }}
or try setting field you do not want to show using:
{% do form.recet.setRendered %}
but probably best way is not to add this field in the first place, rather than hiding it, by form options or event listeners depending on some criterias

A better solution is to remove the field from the form type. If you only remove it from the view, it may be interpreted as a blank submission for that field and delete existing data.
If you only use the form in one place, then just remove the field from the type. If you use it in multiple places, then you can selectively remove the field in a FormEvents::POST_SET_DATA event listener.

How to add DefaultAdress fields in Customer Sylius Form (symfony3)

I think the title is not very clear, so I will explain better :
I have edited the CustomerRegister form the add a few fields, and I would like to add DefaultAdress fields too (defaultAdress is a linked object to Customer - I have a getDefaultAdresse method in CustomerObject). I would like to add all the fields that are in the DefaultAddress object (street, country, etc.)
I don't know how to do that...
Do I need to modify the CustomerRegistrationTypeExtension to add fields for the address ?
How can I call the fields in my twig file ? Like that : {{ form_row(form.defaultAddress.street) }} ?
I didn't find doc to explain that case.
Thanks for your help !
You should create CustomerRegistrationTypeExtension, just like you described. Inside of this extension, simply do:
use Sylius\Bundle\AddressingBundle\Form\Type\AddressType;
$builder->add('defaultAddress', AddressType::class)
Then override the template and you should be able to render the fields or entire form with:
{{ form_widget(form.defaultAddress) }}
I'd recommend using our standard address form template, by simply including it:
{% include '#SyliusShop/Common/Form/_address.html.twig' with {'form': form.defaultAddress} %}

Simple forms post field specific field values

I am using simpleforms as a subscription form for subscribing to classes. The form uses a use_as and also sends the email to the sender as a confirmation.
I have edited the email twig template and added further informatie about what the subscriber should do next.
My question is if it is possible to set a specific field value in the instruction text. So far I have not yet been able to do this correctly. I would like to only show the field "name:" in this instruction text so that every sender that gets this email is greeted with his own name.
The for loop that is used in the email template is
{% for value in form %} {{ value }} {% endfor %}
And i'm looking for a specific field to be set instead of all the values of the form.
You can directly access the fields in your emailtemplate, you don't need to use a loop for it.
So if you have a field called 'name' in your config file you can use {{ form.name }} in the email template to display the value that the visitor has entered directly.

Symfony2 First form entity overriding second

I have a contact form on a page that has a name field, email field and textarea field. It is made in the most simple way...
$contactEntity = new ContactEntity();
$builder-> $this->container->get('form.factory')->createBuilder('form', $kontaktEntity, array();
$builder->add() ... fields added
Then, in the administrative area, I have a search form that searches for the reacivied messages with name and email fields. I create that form with a different entity with the fields name and email that are one of half a dozen other fields in ContactEntity.
The problem is that the search form is rendered in twig as if it was kontakt form.
To clarify, SearchEntity has fields name and email. ContactEntity also has the same fields but with addition of some other fields. When the search form is rendered in twig, it shows the name and email fields as if it were part of ContactEntity.
Also, twig customization doesn't work. I cannot change label text values, I cannot remove HTML5 validation, and can't do anything beacuse nothing works. I tried renaming the fields in the search entity but it doesn't work.
Twig rendering is made on diffrenet twig scripts and is normal and basic in both both forms. This is on a search form. Changing label taxt to Name doesn't work. The submit value, on the other hand, is correctly rendered.
{{ form_start(form, {attr: {'no-validate' : 'novalidate'}}) }}
<div class="search-rom">
{{ form_label(form.name, 'Name') }}
{{ form_errors(form.name) }}
{{ form_widget(form.name) }}
</div>
<div class="search-rom">
{{ form_label(form.email, 'Email') }}
{{ form_errors(form.email) }}
{{ form_widget(form.email) }}
</div>
{{ form_end(form) }}
To summarize, twig is rendering two of the fields of an entity that the built form has nothing to do with.
EDIT
I've just tested if SearchEntity is filled when form is submitted and it is, with the correct values. I really don't know what is going on here.
EDIT 2
This is a code fragment from the messageAction() method in the controller.
$searchEntity = new SearchEntity();
$builder = $this->container->get('form.factory')->createBuilder('form', $searchEntity, array());
$builder->add('name', 'text')
->add('email', 'text')
->getForm();
Then form is rendered in the response with $form->createView()
Maybe you don't need to pass the builder an entity. In other examples you can just create the entity after getting the data.
How to render a form without a class in other service?
http://symfony.com/doc/current/book/forms.html#using-a-form-without-a-class
I found what the problem is. It's translations.
I'm Croatian and site I'm building has two languages, english and croatian with english as the default locale. Translation is done in various ways, but the translation of forms and all that comes with forms is done via messages.en.php.
For translations, i choose array type. message.en.php looks like this...
... Some data to translate ...
'Ime' : 'Personal name or bussiness'
'Email' : 'Email address
... Some other data to translate
So, when twig tried to render this...
form_label(form.ime, 'Ime')
it rendered the translation for key Ime. Same thing happend to email field. Everything else is in order. I just changed the label value to 'Search for name' or something like that.
As to how to limit translations to only one form, I don't know. I read Translations section but couldn't find anything.

Laravel 4 - get data from multiselect form

I'm using Laravel 4, and I have two tables related 'Many to many': 'Actividad' and 'Material'. Every Actividad can have one or more Materials, and every Material can belong to one or more Actividad.
So, I have made a form to create a new Actividad where you can save one or more Materials. I've done that with a multiselect input. Like that:
{{ Form::label('material_id', 'Material necesario:') }}
<p>{{ Form::select('material_id', $material_id, Input::old('material_id'), array('multiple')) }}</p>
I don't know if I'm doing correctly but, before saving anything, my first problem is that I'm only obtaining one result. I suppose I should get every option 'checked' in the form... The relevant part of my Controller is:
$material = Input::get('material_id');
return var_dump($material);
I should obtain a list of options selected, but the result of that in my browser is:
string(1) "1"
This is the first time I'm working with tables related in this way, and probably I'm doing something wrong (in the form, in my controller, in my Models,...)
Thank you very much for your help!!
Just change your code to this
{{ Form::select('material_id[]', $material_id, Input::old('material_id'), array('multiple')) }}
I hope this helps.
if you are using custom response handlers on the client side such in the case of submitting info with AJAX, all you need to do is to simple add "[]" to the name of the select control.
e.g.
<select name="material_id[]" multiple>
This is the same case as with regular PHP. The other methods are required if you want Laravel to handle the form elements for you when rendering a new response/view. ( page reload ). This reload doesn't happen with REST requests.

Symfony 2, double error

Why i have double error when i want to customize my form ?
Template:
<div>
{{ form_errors(edit_form.wiek) }}
{{ form_widget(edit_form.wiek) }}
</div>
HTML:
You probably see the error on the field level, but also on the form level. It can look like you have two errors especially if there's only one field in your form.
Dig into the customizing error output of the form cookbook for more details.
Edit
The doc gives a much better explanation :)
You can also customize the error output for just one specific field type. For example, certain errors that are more global to your form (i.e. not specific to just one field) are rendered separately, usually at the top of your form.
