    Hi,
    Is it possible to apply conditional logics on edit form. I tried it but not working. Actually I using it for purchase order. After I placed order I wanted to edit the order, here I have many conditional logics to show different options. But problem is I cant apply the same thing on edit. Probably I can write custom PHP codes but it ill become complex.
    Can you help me out.
    Thanks,
    Poovarasan

  2. Edit Entry displays all of the form fields. Conditional Logic isn't utilized on the Edit Entry page. The admin has access to all the fields.

    Thats right. But my requirement going like this. I have PO form there based on certain conditions I should not edit some fields and it should be empty, so how can I achieve it in admin also.

  4. You can't, conditional logic doesn't appear in the admin. It displays all of your form fields because admins have access to every field when editing the entry. You would have to know which fields need to be edited and edit just those. Admins have complete control over all the fields and can add data to any of them, including ones originally hidden by conditional logic.
