User specific List of submissions

jerrypeter 22 Jun, 2007
My site will have agents making some submissions using the form. I need to know whether its possible to show all the submissions of that particular user as a list when he enters his registered area. Clicking on each row in the list should take it to an editable form( for resubmitting after making necessary corrections). Is this possible?
I had one good look at this extension and I should say I am quite impressed. Just need to know this will be suitable for my need.

Hi jerrypeter,

ChronoForms can't do this 'out of the box', you'd have to write the code to show the list on the agent page.

With ChronoForms you can set the form up and have the data saved to a database table. Make sure that you include the unique user-id. On the agent page you then need to select from the database table using the user-id, display the results as you describe and show the new form.

By default the database code that ChronoForms creates writes new records to the table, you'd have to modify this to update the exisiting records.

None of this is very difficult but as I say it's not an 'out of the box' implementation.
