[Qgis-user] Value relations in QGIS

[didier peeters]

Hello Randy,

I haven’t been working with value relations very recently but what I used to do to easily share it with other users was to save everything in the project file, then duplicate this file and replace the login name (or anything else that would need to be adapted) with a text editor. 

HTH,

Didier

> Question is - should it restore? Or are value relations (widgets) just for that QGIS session - so I need to set this up 5 times for 5 people? Which I don't mind doing - I was under the impression this saved/restored with the qlr/qml.
