I have a structure field on a page like this: ```yaml form_fields: type: structure label: Form Fields fields: form_field_name: type: text label: Field Name form_field_class: type: text label: Field Class form_field_structure: type: toggle label: Field Structure default: false text: - plain element - enclose in <div> ``` I’d like to create a SELECT field now, on the same page, which should have selections based on the entries in that field. I’m trying this: ```yaml form_key_field: type: select label: Key Field options: query query: fetch: page.form_fields.toStructure text: "#{{ structureItem.form_field_name }}" value: "{{ structureItem.form_field_name }}" ``` But all I get is an error message where the select field should be, which says: ```auto Error in "form_key_field" field: Invalid query result data ``` I’ve also tried using `yaml` + `arrayItem` in the query, instead of `toStructure` and `structureItem`, but got same result. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. ---

Hm, I can’t reproduce the error with your above code. What is your Kirby version? ---

It’s the latest, @texnixe - 3.2.5. This blueprint code is actually part of a PLUGIN. Could that be the problem?.. ---

I moved it into a plugin, which also works. How do you register the file? ![14](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/getkirby/original/2X/3/3c74b3f8789613df73627de5030170fb6213c575.png) Downside with this approach is that you have to first save the page then reload… ---

Yes, I moved the code out of the plugin and pasted it directly into the page’s blueprint, and am still getting the error - so that’s not it. Damn it. If you’re not getting any issues, then it must be something else on the blueprint that is causing the problem. Let me do some logical troubleshooting to see if I can pinpoint it. ---

Do you have another field with the same name somewhere? ---

No - literally _just_ checked that! 🙂 BTW: do you have any suggestions for a solution that wouldn’t involve save+reloading the page?.. All ideas are welcome! ---

Ok, found the problem. I was doing my testing directly in `site.yml`, so instead of `page.form_fields.toStructure` I should have done `site.form_fields.toStructure` - doh! 🙄 ---
