Manually choose which attributes to edit

Roy Bøhmer	Thursday 29 July 2004 2:06:23 am Hi! Lets say I've made a class with 2 attributes: name (textline) and email (email). The email-attribute is required. Now I want anonymous users to make new objects of this class. This is no problem when using code like {include uri="design:content/edit_attribute.tpl"} But how do I write the code if I only want the useres to fill in ONLY the email-attribute? In other words: I dont want them to be presented to a textline where they have to fill in their name. I've tried to find the golden documentation page on how to make the form manually, but with no luck. The html-output is something like <input type="hidden" name="ContentObjectAttribute_id[]" value="785" /> <input class="" type="text" size="40" name="ContentObjectAttribute_ezstring_data_text_785" value="" /> and I think the name="..." is my problem. But how to make it dynamic? Thanks! Roy
Paul Forsyth	Thursday 29 July 2004 2:47:38 am Try this: If you are editing something then the varaible $content_attributes will be. You need to select the correct attribute to make this work... <form> {let email_attribute=$content_attributes[1]} {attribute_edit_gui attribute=$email_attribute} <input type="hidden" name="ContentObjectAttribute_id[]" value="{$email_attribute.id}" /> <input type="submit" name="PublishButton" /> <input type="submit" name="CancelButton" /> {/let} </form> Hope this helps paul -- http://www.visionwt.com
Roy Bøhmer	Thursday 29 July 2004 5:52:30 am Aaah! Thanks! Things are getting clearer. But this means the user has to press some kind of Edit or New-button first. I would like to have the form present all the time, much like the search-form (even if my first post didn't tell). The intention is to make it easy for people to subscribe to a newsletter. But if my "clear" understanding is right I have to make a content/edit-call before I will be able to publish new objects, or..? Roy
Paul Forsyth	Thursday 29 July 2004 6:01:37 am If you are creating new objects a call to content/edit is the best way to go. If you are making any kind of form submit you always need a way of making the form submit, so buttons (of whatever form) are needed :) It sounds like you want something like kernel/content/tipafriend.php. Have a look at how this code works, passes information from the html to the php underneath. Objects can then be created as you need. paul
Roy Bøhmer	Thursday 29 July 2004 6:51:57 am Thank you. I'll look into the tip-a-friend stuff soon. I've also made a module in order to send SMS, so I might just do some adjustments to make it create new objects. Wonder why I didnt think about doint it in php before. Well, I'll blame it on the fact that everybody else is on vacation and I still sit here :-)
Brendan Pike	Sunday 31 October 2004 7:09:17 pm I'm quite interested to know what you created regarding the SMS module. I'm wondering if anyone has created a workflow extension to SMS as well as email when triggered. www.dbinformatics.com.au We are always interested in hearing from experienced eZ PHP programmers and eZ template designers interested in contract work.
