[Qgis-user] How to make joined fields editable?

[Harrissou s.]

Hi,

I never tried to edit a joined so I can only point you to the docs https://docs.qgis.org/3.22/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/vector_properties.html#joins-properties that seems to confirm your assumption about that checkbox. Pay attention to the type of icon next to fields (layer?) to find out what could be the reason of the failure.

Hope that helps,
Regards,
Harrissou

You can however save the 2 joined table as a gpkg under a new name.  Just use the export dialogue and both will be saved. This will make a new editable file if you use an editable format as an export file format and will get you out of this bind.
