We upgraded to 9.5 today and noticed afterwards that our Dependent Picklists are no longer working on Skuid pages. I have 9.3.4 in a sandbox and the page is still working correctly there. 

Any changes that could have caused this? Any suggestions?

Hoping for a quick fix, cannot update because dependent picklists are essential to our org.

Adam and Tyler,

Our team has created the following workaround for this issue. The fix will also be rolled into an upcoming Skuid update. In the meantime, please give this a try and let us know what you find.

This overrides the Skuid Field constructor to address SKUID-3027. It is a workaround targetedat Skuid Brooklyn Update 1 (9.5), and it is not intended to be used with any other version of Skuid. It is provided as is, without support, and should be removed once a version of Skuid containing a fix has been installed.

To implement this workaround, add this code to a Static Resource and include that resourceas a JavaScript Resource on any page affected.

I must not be doing something right. Should the static resource be a txt file? I added it to my page and the dependent picklist is still not working 😦

I saved the code from Mark in notepad as a txt file, including his commented out notes, and uploaded it as a Static Resource in Salesforce (it will work as a public or private file).

I then created a Javascript item on the Skuid page set to Static Resource and chose the txt file from the static resource lookup.

Are you on Skuid version 9.5?

Hi Skuid Community~

Thank you for your patience as we addressed this bug. This issue has been resolved in the
Brooklyn Update 1 - Iteration 1 which is now available from the Skuid Releases page.

As a reminder, Salesforce does NOT allow reverting back to prior versions of managed packages. Skuid always recommends installing new versions in a non-business critical sandbox environment to test all mission critical functionality before installing into a production environment. We also recommend that you update out of date themes when you upgrade.

Thanks!
