Update button - return to submission page

[firedragon]

Hi,

I have created a form and I have set it up to send Email whenever I create & update a submission. It works beautifully.. But I does not take to back to the Submission List page.

Can I make some changes somewhere that when I "update" a submission it should ALSO take me to the Submission list page.

I'm from a non-english speaking country, pardon me & let me know if you were able to understand my question or If I need to be more clear.

Regards,
FireDragon

Hi Firedragon,

Interesting! Unfortunately, there's nothing in the script to allow for this. However, if you don't mind hacking it a bit and are well aware that future upgrades may overwrite this change, you can add the functionality like so:

Edit the /admin/forms/edit_submission.php file and find these lines on 36-39:

PHP Code:

if (!$g_success)
  {
      $failed_validation = true;
  } 


After those, add an else-clause:

PHP Code:

if (!$g_success)
  {
      $failed_validation = true;
  }
  else 
  {
      header("location: submissions.php");
      exit;
  } 


That should redirect you back to the main submissions page after you update a submission.

Hi

Hey there,

Yes, you can redirect the page after it's updated as well. You will need to make updates to the code.
