Dear Sirs, as paid subscribers I'd like to enter predefined values in a column ("Ente") importing these value from an external list. As the list is very large I'd like to know a possible method .
You can find option Possible values for column in column settings on DATA tab.
Possible values for column – This input defines how the possible values for this column are to be listed. Possible values are used in the filters (selectbox, checkbox) and in the editor inputs for editable tables. The options are: Read from table on page load (default) – This default option fetches possible values for the column from the table every time the table is open in the front-end. This action will work fine if all the values are already there, but it may not be the best solution, and may work slow for large tables, since it performs a full table read every time. Define values list – This option opens an additional tag-like input where you can manually enter all the possible values for this column, separated by comma or “Enter”. This input also allows you to read the existing values from the table.
