I have a problem with getting my module_form_alter to work for hierarchical select. I am running on Drupal 7 and my content type is called mytemp and I'm pretty sure my form-id is mytemp_node_form. I have a taxonomy called ICA which my hierarchical select references to.

I get the following error when I run it:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in arjmod_form_alter() (line 8 of /var/www/hcms/sites/all/modules/arjmod/arjmod.module)

I would like to have my hierarchical select appear with a fixed row height but I can't get it to work.

This is my code:

<?php 
function mymodule_form_alter (&$form, &$form_state, $form_id){
  if($form_id == 'mytemp_node_form'){
    foreach ($form['taxonomy'] as &$vocab)
      if($vocab['#type'] == 'hierarchical_select')
        $vocab['#size'] = 10;
}} ?>

Please point me in the right direction.

  • I just used hierarchical select in a custom form the other week. Why are you using a form alter on a node form? Why not just configure the field's widget settings using the hierarchical select widget? Do you have the hierarchical select's taxonomy submodule enabled?

Looks like $form['taxonomy'] is not an array.

There are some options for hierarchical selects maybe this is all you need:

http://localhost/admin/config/content/hierarchical_select

I think you need to assign taxonomy to a variable, and $vocab shouldn't be passed byref:

$taxonomy = $form['taxonomy'];
foreach ($taxonomy as $vocab) {...}
