Hi!
I have an issue with the storage method "free", especially with deleting those records.
I created a guestbook with seblod 3. Mainly because there is no need to create articles for that, i used the storage method "standard/free". I set up a database table with phpMyAdmin containing the fields id (auto-increment), name, e-mail, date, message, comment. Add a new message, view list, open entry, edit it, store again - in backend and frontend - everything works perfect!
But deleting an entry causes "Error - An error has occurred" after confirming "Are you sure you want to delete the selected item(s)?". I tried both "free text delete" and "icon delete". I set up the the complete "app" several times, same issue.
Using the storage method "standard/article" works, but creates unwanted articles of course. What am i doing wrong or is it a bug in Seblod?
I already posted this as a comment to an open ticket in the tracker (created 1 year ago ^^ ), but i have to get this solved soon. So, maybe someone here can help?
Many thanks in advance!
You have to wrote a link plugin to delete your free object.
Hello Codigo Abert, thanks for your reply. I'm pretty new to seblod, so could you please give me a slight idea of how such a link plugin should look like?
But I can't imagine that it is really necessary to "hardcode" such a basic function. I would appreciate it very much, if one of the devs would briefly comment on this. Thank you!
Hi Neurosis,
In the future, you should let SEBLOD build the tables for you. There is no reason that you should have to create a table using phpMyAdmin or any other database manager. Have you had a chance to study the SEBLOD storage methodology in this tutorial and videos. Standard|Article is the storage that is used almost exclusively. I'm not sure what you mean by unwanted articles.
How are you presenting your guestbook? Do you have a Search & List Type to display for other users, or is it only for the Administrators to view? For a guestbook app - it is basically a simple Contact Us form - just a different category.
Have you turned on the debugging options to see the errors explained?
regards,
Randy
