Combine 2 fields data into 1

Post by scorpio_x73 » 2013-11-28 21:13

Hi and thank you all for any help.

New in appgini and in php general.

My question is that i have a table with first_name, last_name and contact_name i want the user to write the first and second name and when he saves i want the field contact_name to get the values from first_name, last_name.

I have tried to add in hooks folder and in file main_tbl_contacts (which is my table name) in the function main_tbl_contacts_after_insert($data, $memberInfo, &$args) section the following line of code $data['contact_name'] = $data['last_name'] . ' ' . $data['first_name']; but is not working.

Thanks again for any info.
