How Set Selected option in a HelperForm

[ZiedDams]

I'm developing a configuration form using  the Helper-form , my form has a <select> tag with list of <options> , all this is working my problem is i want to set a specific <option> selected,  In another way i want to add an attribute selected to  an option in condition of the value , Any Help ?

I'm not sure if I understood correctly, do you want to have a selected predefined option by default before saving a value?

Yes I want to make an option selected in the render of the form

[knacky]

$helper->fields_value['myfield'] = '3';

And you can put part of the renderForm() code here.

                            'id' => 'id_auction',
                            'name' => 'name',

                )
            ),
        );

and this is my options list variable

$list_auctions = $this->getAuctions();
$def_options_auctions = array();

       foreach ($list_auctions as $auction) {
            $prod = new Product((int)$auction['id_product'],true,$this->context->language->id);
            $def_options_auctions[] = array(
                'id_auction' => $auction['id_auction_premium_auction'],
                'name' =>$prod->name,
            );
        }

finally this my Helper Form

 $helper = new HelperForm();
        $helper->show_toolbar = false;
        $helper->table = $this->table;
        $lang = new Language((int)Configuration::get('PS_LANG_DEFAULT'));
        $helper->default_form_language = $lang->id;

        $tmp = Configuration::get('PS_BO_ALLOW_EMPLOYEE_FORM_LANG');
        $helper->allow_employee_form_lang = $tmp ? $tmp : 0;
        $this->fields_form = array();
        $helper->module = $this;
        $helper->identifier = $this->identifier;
        $helper->submit_action = 'submitSlide';
        $helper->currentIndex = $this->context->link->getAdminLink('AdminModules', false).'&configure='.$this->name.
            '&tab_module='.$this->tab.'&module_name='.$this->name;
        $helper->token = Tools::getAdminTokenLite('AdminModules');
        $language = new Language((int)Configuration::get('PS_LANG_DEFAULT'));
        $helper->tpl_vars = array(
            'base_url' => $this->context->shop->getBaseURL(),
            'language' => array(
                'id_lang' => $language->id,
                'iso_code' => $language->iso_code
            ),
            'fields_value' => $this->getAddFieldsValues(),
            'languages' => $this->context->controller->getLanguages(),
            'id_language' => $this->context->language->id,
            'image_baseurl' => $this->_path.'views/img/'
        );
        $helper->fields_value['hit_auction_slide_id'] = "6"; // saddly  not working yet 
        $helper->override_folder = '/';

        $languages = Language::getLanguages(false);

        if (count($languages) > 1) {
            return $this->getMultiLanguageInfoMsg() . $helper->generateForm(array($fields_form));
        } else {
            return $helper->generateForm(array($fields_form));
        }

Hi.

You are using a function call to find values.

'fields_value' => $this->getAddFieldsValues(),

 

So enter your value in the function for reading values.
E.g:

public function getAddFieldsValues()
{
	$values = array();
	$values['hit_auction_slide_id'] = '6';

  	....

	return $values;
 }
