I am rendering a comprehension inside Liveview template (a list of reviews).
For each one when pressing a button I want to display an inline form to reply to that message.
Some code snippets simplified to show what I have:
<article :for={rv <- @reviews} id={"received_#{rv.id}"} class="static p-6 bg-white">
<div class="font-normal text-text_color">
<%= rv.description %>
</div>
<button type="button" id={"show_reply_button_#{rv.id}"} phx-click={JS.push("show_reply_form", value: %{id: rv.id})}>
<img class="mr-1.5 w-3.5 h-3.5" src="/images/message.svg" alt="raporteaza icon" /> <%= gettext("Reply") %>
</button>
<div :if={@form} class="mt-8 ml-12">
<.simple_form for={@form} id="reply_review_form" phx-submit="submit_reply" class="mb-6">
<:actions>
<.input type="hidden" id="review_id" field={@form[:review_id]} />
</:actions>
<:actions>
<label for="comment" class="sr-only">Your comment</label>
<.input type="textarea" id="comment" field={@form[:content]} rows="6" placeholder={gettext("Tell us...")} />
</:actions>
<:actions>
<button type="button" phx-click="cancel_reply">
<%= gettext("Cancel") %>
</button>
<button type="submit" >
<%= gettext("Send") %>
</button>
</:actions>
</.simple_form>
</div>
</article>
On the server side I have:
def handle_event("show_reply_form", %{"id" => review_id}, socket) do
form_data = %{
"review_id" => review_id,
"content" => nil
}
form = to_form(form_data, as: "review")
socket = assign(socket, form: form)
{:noreply, socket}
end
Clicking on the button send the event to server side, The form is added to assigns but in the UI I get no diff via socket and no update is made.
I tried to generate a dynamic form for each item from the list but still no render update.
Any suggestions on what I am doing wrong?

The form is nested inside the for comprehension so the loop won’t run again unless you make a change to
@reviews. I think in the current code the same form will then render for each comment.silviurosu
I also tried to add a form for each element from the list like this:
and
Theoretically it should render just the form from the corresponding review but nothing is send to UI.
