F2C 6.17.4

Hi,

I suppose apply button should work the same everywhere - when user clicks the button, he should stay within the old form (even if I have chosen "Always create a new form" in menu item). I have a large form and I need the user to have an opportunity to save it and then continue editing - and after "Save and close" to be able to add a new record.

Is there any easy fix to it?

Thanks a lot ,
Even after those years working with F2C, I am still having fun! :)

Kind regards, Alena

Hi Alena,

Yes, I see it now, sorry....this is some experimental F2C trick ;)

Please try this:
<your website>/index.php?option=com_form2content&task=form.add&Itemid=169

where ItemId is the Id of a menu with the F2C Article Manager where the user is allowed to create multiple articles.

best,
Julien

Hi Alena,

Good to hear that you're still having fun with F2C! :-)

The behaviour you describe is by design, but I think you can create the behaviour that you want by creating a menu item with a fixed url like this:

<your website>/index.php/en/?option=com_form2content&view=form&layout=edit&projectid=1&Itemid=169

projectid is the id of the Content Type
Itemid is the Joomla menu item id

By creating a menu item with an url like this, you will always get a new article where apply should work.
So this is not an official F2C menu item, but more like a hack with a fixed url.

Hope this helps!

best,
Julien

Hi Julien,

thanks for a quick response, but I could not make it work - after clicking Apply I get "0 Call to a member function get() on null" error.

Kind regards, Alena
