Hey Tim,

Nice idea. I'm giving it a go at the moment, but having a bit of a problem. When I'm on the review page, I need to be able to allow the user to go back and edit the form if they did something wrong. I've setup a dummy form to test the "Allow Editing" feature, but I can't seem to be able to get it to work.

I've submitted an entry on that form, then gone in the admin, and grabbed the record ID. I've then gone back to the front end, and appended "?recordid={GUID}" to the url of the page with the form on (the form is inserted as a macro, in an RTE area if it makes a difference) but I'm not getting any edit functionality.

I've also tried "id" and "recordGuid" with no luck.

Any ideas?

Cheers

Matt

It should be ?recordGuid=...  , will check

Hey Tim,

You are right, ?recordGuid= does work (although not sure why it didn't work the first time I tried it, can it be affected by multiple tabs open?)

Matt

Yeah just tested and it works..

 <umbraco:Macro 
FormGuid="55574c8d-e975-4b01-b604-fe479af51b1a" 
AllowEditing="1" 
Alias="umbracoContour.RenderForm" 
runat="server"></umbraco:Macro>

And then passing the recordid

?recordGuid=6761f36d-b4cd-498b-931b-d2f939548a87

Just make sure that the record is from the form set on the renderform macro

Hey Tim,

I'm almost there with it, I just don't seem to be able to get it to fire the "On Approve" email. I'm using the following on my confirm button to set the records state to approved:

CurrentRecord.State = Umbraco.Forms.Core.Enums.FormState.Approved;

using (RecordStorage recordStorage = new RecordStorage())
{
    recordStorage.UpdateRecord(CurrentRecord, CurrentForm);
    recordStorage.UpdateRecordXml(CurrentRecord, CurrentForm);
}

Response.Redirect(umbraco.library.NiceUrl(RedirectUrl));

Is there anything else I need to do to get it to trigger the "On Approved" workflow?

Cheers

Matt

try

RecordService s = new RecordService(record);

            if (s != null)
                s.Approve();

            s.Dispose();

That should fire the workflows since RecordStorage only handles the db actions

Bingo! Worked a treat. 

Cheers Tim

Hi guys, I'm looking to do same thing as Matt, but I struggle with the "CurrentRecord.state..." So, need help to add a button that will set my workflow from "submitted" to "Approved".

As I understant, I need your piece of code, but can I place that in the template?

Thank you if you can help me!

Hi i was trying to make kinda the same thing, but in the developer document there are some gaps about how to the the from post in a umbraco page, this what im looking form:

1.           Sales Person Fill the Form
2.           Sales Person Submit the Form
3.           I get an Email with the submitted Form
4.          Email Has Form Info and a Link to Visit the Form in a Page and Approve It there
5.          I Click on the Link
6.          With the Click, a webpage is opened and I make a Final Review and Click on the Approved Button
7.         Approved is triggered in Umbraco System
8.           Sales Person, and Commissions gets an email with the Approved Notice

I think that is closed to the solution in this page, i am just a little bit lost in where to start and how to start to put forms in a web page.

In the step 3 im using send email and for the approved porpuses i already setup using send email responses to the people that has to recieved the form.

Any help will be great, thanks a lot!
