Many to Many and Widgets

Yii 2.0 General Discussions

Hello everyone,

I’m PHP developer, I used to code with ActiveRecord/Bootstrap3 so decided to learn Yii2, after more than two months using Yii2, I’ve been struggling for 2 months to implement a simple “Many-to-Many” relationship between two tables, but no way!

The problem is not the models, it was easy with ActiveRecord, I could easily do it following this and answer (in stackoverflow: how-do-i-work-with-many-to-many-relations-in-yii2)

My issue is the forms! since Yii2 IMHO doesn’t provide widgets to do that, any tutorial or useful link? I searched everywhere but no result.

Thanks in advance

Regards

Nope, framework does not provide any standard form for many-many records. You have to implement form yourself. As for collecting and saving data, it could be done like described in the docs: http://www.yiiframework.com/doc-2.0/guide-input-tabular-input.html
