autocomplete_blank_fields()

Description

Fill in any blank fields for the resource.

IMPORTANT: Auto completing blank fields with inactive options should be allowed (possibly a system misconfiguration).
This function will NOT exclude inactive nodes because, for required fields, you might end up having no value
after processing the field.

For example:
- when creating a resource, autocomplete_blank_fields() should always be triggered regardless if user has data in its user template.
- when copying resource/ extracting embedded metadata, autocomplete_blank_fields() should not overwrite if there is data
for that field as at this point you probably have the expected data for your field.

Parameters

ColumnTypeDefaultDescription
$resource integer Resource ID
$force_run boolean Allow code to force running this function and update the fields even if there is data.
$return_changes boolean false When true an array of fields changed by autocomplete is returned.
$field_ref integer 0 Optional parameter to specify which metadata field should be processed. Left blank, all fields will be processed (default behaviour).

Return

boolean|array Success/fail or array of changes made
