Hello,

I am stuck with a very small and basic thing, sorry to bother you for it.


We would like to make a machinery website and would like to give brochures for download but as per follows:


In Machinery article after clicking on download link an inquiry form should be opened and after submitting inquiry form user should download the brochure.

I have added a text field in machinery content view and linked it to inquiry form (content type). After clicking on this field's link an inquiry form opens but i don't know how to redirect it to download link after submission of the form.

For download link we can use "file upload" field in machinery content type.


Request you to please help me to redirect inquiry form to download link (these links will be different for each article).


Thanks & Regards,

Umair Hassan Raja

Hi Bes, 

Thank you for your reply.

I have inserted file upload field in my article. Now user can download that file.

But I would like that once user click on file download link,

an inquiry form should open user should fill that inquiry form, after that he should be able to download that file.

Is it possible or not?

Idea is similar like below extension:

Look forward to your comments.

Hi,

There is a field called 'Email' available with Seblod (Docs available).

You can use this field to send an email on submission and you can include direct link to file in the email body.

I think that would be the easiest solution that we can acheive with SEBLOD.

Hi Nithin,


Thank you very much for your help, and sorry to bothering you again.


Actually; I have two content types:

1. Machinery Content (Link to that content)

     In the above content type there is a file upload field for brochure download.

2. Inquiry Form    (Link to that inquiry form)


  • Every machine is a "Machinery Content" and have its own brochure.
  • If a guest user comes to Machinery Content, he should see a download option.
  • But when he clicks on download button, he should be redirected to the inquiry form, so we could collect his details before providing him download link.
  • Once user is registered, he should be redirected back to the same "Machinery Content".
  • Now registered user should see the download link.


This download link should only be downloadable by submitting the Inquiry Form.


Hope the above is understandable.


Look forward to your reply.



Best Regards,

Umair

Hi,

I couldn't find any SEBLOD way to restrict download only after submitting the form.

But you can:

  • Every machine is a "Machinery Content" and have its own brochure.
  • If a guest user comes to Machinery Content, he should see a download option.
  • But when he clicks on download button, he should be redirected to the inquiry form, so we could collect his details before providing him download link.
  • Once user is submitted the inquiry form, he should be redirected back to the same "Machinery Content".
  • Now this user gets an auto generated email from website with download link
