CC editing enrollment form from CF

james_sgp 02 Nov, 2010
I have been using Chronoforms for a while know for my student enrollments, and it works great. I am looking at Chronoconnectivity as a way to edit/update the records, which it does do. The problem I have is that when it updates the records it sends out an email to the student, and sends me to a confirmation page (as the original Chronoform does). Is there anyway to stop this, so I can just make updates and they are written into the database without send emails, etc?

Hi james_sgp,

There are a couple of ways of doing this. The simplest is to make a copy of the form, turn off the emails & the Confirmation Page plug-in in the copy and link the ChronoConnection to the copy form instead of the original.

The more complicated way is to edit the code in the form to detect if it is being called from ChronoConnectivity and to suppress the emails and plug-in in that case.

'Copy' forms can be more troublesome to maintain when you come to change the form but it's simple enough in this case to make a new copy.

Bob,

Mmm...hadn`t thought of that; I`ll give it a try. Fingers crossed it works, and you`ll have another CC subscriber :wink:
