Modify contents of an attribute when a button is pressed

Sunday 01 May 2011 2:49:17 pm

In the default eZP installation you don't have the possibility to edit only one attribute. The alternatives are:

• create an extension with a custom module that does this (or try to find if such an extension already exists)
• use a form that has hidden fields for all attributes except the one you want to change

The same issue was also discused here:

My code is this, but it doesn't work. When I click on the submit button it redirect to the edit template of the object without displaying the changes.

<form name="editform" id="editform" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action={concat( '/content/edit/', $node.contentobject_id, '/', $edit_version, '/', $edit_language|not|choose( concat( $edit_language, '/' ), '/' ), $is_translating_content|not|choose( concat( $from_language, '/' ), '' ) )|ezurl}>
  
  <input class="button" type="submit" name="PublishButton" value="{'Submit'}" />
  <input type="hidden" name="DiscardConfirm" value="0" />

  <input type="hidden" name="ContentObjectAttribute_id[]" value="{$node.data_map.attribute1.id}" />
  {attribute_edit_gui attribute=$node.data_map.attribute1 view_parameters=$view_parameters}

  <input type="hidden" name="ContentObjectAttribute_id[]" value="{$node.data_map.attribute2.id}" />
  {attribute_edit_gui attribute=$node.data_map.attribute2 view_parameters=$view_parameters}
  
  ...

  <input type="hidden" name="ContentObjectAttribute_id[]" value="{$node.data_map.attribute_to_edit.id}" />
  <input type="text" name="ContentObjectAttribute_data_integer_{$node.data_map.attribute_to_edit.id}" value="23" />
            
</form>

Yes I've read it. I've also tried this, but still not working.

<form name="editform" id="editform" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action={concat( '/content/edit/', $node.contentobject_id, '/', $edit_version, '/', $edit_language|not|choose( concat( $edit_language, '/' ), '/' ), $is_translating_content|not|choose( concat( $from_language, '/' ), '' ) )|ezurl}>
            
  {include uri='design:content/edit_validation.tpl'}
            
  <input class="button_green" type="submit" name="PublishButton" value="{'Submit'}" />
  <input type="hidden" name="DiscardConfirm" value="0" />
            
  <input type="hidden" name="ContentObjectAttribute_id[]" value="{$node.data_map.attribute1.id}" />

  <input type="hidden" name="ContentObjectAttribute_id[]" value="{$node.data_map.attribute2.id}" />
  
  ...
        
  <input type="hidden" name="ContentObjectAttribute_id[]" value="{$node.data_map.attribute_to_edit.id}" />
  {attribute_edit_gui attribute=$node.data_map.attribute_to_edit view_parameters=$view_parameters}
            
</form>
