I just chased my tail around for a bit today. I got lost with setting the status of all inputs, and banging my head on why the "validate" function just wasn't working.

Welcome, all of you !

Following is the table structure

tblgroups

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `tblgroups` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `groupname` varchar(150) NOT NULL,
  `status` tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '1' COMMENT '1=Acitve,2=Inactive',

tblcontacts

This is a simple example in Yii2.0 to understand how you can write a custom component and use it inside your app.(basic template)

I have read http://www.yiiframework.com/wiki/24/creating-a-dependent-dropdown/ (Dependen Dropdown Yii1), but I can't implement it in Yii2 because Yii2 does not have built-in AJAX functionality hem.. I searched about it and came across this post

Step 1: Initialize the Bootstrap Tooltip & Popover plugins in your view layout file @web\views\layouts\main.php. Add this to somewhere in the beginning head section (after you have loaded the Jquery using your AppAsset or something similar).

There are a few issues with the other solutions I originally used that I found from other wikis. I address the issues I had in this much simpler and shorter way. I am also going to explain what is going into way more detail than others to help people understand what's going on.

Here is a small guide how to get console commands running inside modules & extensions. For this guide I used a fresh yii2 basic application template.

This article tries to describe the practical techniques of searching by a HAS_MANY relation using ActiveRecord of Yii 2.0.

This wiki explains how to add calculated fields into your Yii Framework 2.0 gridview with filtering and sorting.

1. Create Extension in yii2.

Using a version control system, like Git, is nice. However, when building an extension from scratch and loading it via Composer, it adds a lot of pain in the butt steps.

Uploading files in a webapp can be extremely tricky and sometimes the quickest way to do it is to store the file directly in the webserver or into a DNS (like Amazon S3) and then to save the link and the metadata inside a table in the DB.

https://schema.org is a markup system that allows to embed structured data on their web pages for use by search engines and other applications. Let's see how to add Schema.org to our pages on Yii2 based websites using JSON-LD.
