Hello,
I'm hoping someone can help me. I've searched around but haven't been able to find anything to help me.
I want my "Article Title" field to be filled with the content from two other fields, with a dash between them.
My fields are:
Field 1: Article Title
Field 2: Exam Name (Drop Down, required)
Field 3: Closing Date (Date, required)
When "Exam Name" and "Closing Date" fields are changed, I want Article Title to be updated with the values selected in "Exam Name" and "Closing Date", with dash in between.
Example:
Article Title = Paper1-2016-10-27
Assuming the "Exam Name" field is set to "Paper1" and the Closing date is set to "2016-10-27".
I hope this makes sense. The dash between the two is not actually essential.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance!

Hi
Use BEFORESTORE field to do this.
There are more tutorials on on this...
$config['storages']['#__content']['title'] = $fields['exam_name']->value . '-' . $fields['closing_date']->value;
Or something like that...
Anyway, before or afterstor field is the way to go.
