Dynamic Dropdown population

  1. The code below works fine locally to populate a dropdown. On the client server it returns the right posts (when you echo $post in the foreach linke 60) but it does not populate the dropdown.

    Anything I'm missing that could make it work different on a different server?

  2. The code works on a localhost environment, but will not work on the new server?

    Are there any version differences or configuration differences? If the code works on one server, I would expect it might be a configuration issue. It's odd that the $post is returning the correct information.

    How about the form ID or field IDs if you recreated or imported the form? Maybe something there changed?

  3. The form id and the field id's match (I triple checked that). I exported the local form and imported it to the live server. There is JS that also keys in on the fields (with an ajax autopopulation) and that works on the fields as well.

    It's simply that chunk that doesn't work. As I said, if I print_r on the value of $post it get's me the data I expect on the form I expect but it does not show it in the field I expect.

  4. Ended up tracking it down to a poorly written plugin screwing with the live site. With WP_DEBUG on in dev it stopped whatever was messing with the form.

    Resolved.
