Dropdown not working when using list form webpart

Hello,

 

I have a new item form with a dropdown control. The dropdown control is connected to a lookup field, which is connected to another list.

 

When I use the form on its own it is working, in the dropdown I can chose from the values from the lookup list.

When I integrate the form via list form webpart to another site, everything is working except the drop down control. It doesn't show any values. I thought it might be a permission problem, but I gave myself full access to everything I could find and it still doesn't work.

Does anyone know, what the problem could be?

Hi,

If you are using the form on another site you need to make sure that the
Source SharePoint Site field is configured in the lookup control.

Thanks for your answer. In the meantime I built a workaround by not using a lookup field and instead put the options to choose from directly in the dropdown control. 

 

But I will try your solution, when I need something like that the next time.
