Displaying Custom Data as the Label and not the Value - Many Posts on this, but no Answers!

Does anyone know the correct valueformat to use when trying to get custom data to display as the label rather than the value?

 

customDataAsLabel = shows value

val = shows value

html = shows blank

 

I tried valuefield= and valueexpression= with and without the CONCAT. Who wants to be my hero today? :{)

Hi @brandonnw,

 

I suggest you try this:

 

 

valueformat=customDataValuesAsString

 

 

Regards,

Doug

Hey Doug... just the person I was hoping to summon! Unfortunately, that too displays the value and not the label of the parameter option.

displayname=Product
linkedname=direct
namekey=Mktg - Taxonomy - Product
querysort=DE:Mktg - Taxonomy - Product
textmode=true
valuefield=Mktg - Taxonomy - Product
valueformat=customDataValuesAsString

 

I tried this as an expression as well with the same result. I could do IF statements, but there are about 50 options and I would much prefer the system to just show me the answer that is already there!! 🙂 You would think "customDataLabelAsString" would show the label and "customDataValueAsString" would show the value, but they both produce the value. Boooo

Harrumph. Guess that doesn't work anymore @brandonnw .

 

But this does:

 

 

displayname=valueexpression as HTML
namekey=Mktg - Taxonomy - Product
querysort=DE:Mktg - Taxonomy - Product
textmode=true
valueexpression={DE:Mktg - Taxonomy - Product}
valueformat=HTML

 

Regards,

Doug
