Subject: Updating fileupload file in content structure
Print | Individual message | Show original | Report this message | Find messages by this author

I have created a content structure with one file type field. On the website
(frontend) I prepared a form which allows the user to edit  the data of
this content structure. If a user had uploaded an image previously and does
not choose an image (in a later edit), the image shall not be removed from
the content (structure). In case the user chooses an image, the image shall
be replaced, of course. How would my velocity code look like in order to
make this work? Currently, I have the following approach:

#if($UtilMethods.isSet($oldAnswer))

      #set($submitContentSrc = "/vtl/content_form_macro_override_edit.vtl")

      #set($defaultAnswernumeric = $oldAnswer.answernumeric)
      #set($defaultAnswertext = $oldAnswer.answertext)

      #if($request.getParameter('uploadedFile') == "")

              #set($defaultUploadedFile = $oldAnswer.uploadedFile)
      #else
              *#set($defaultUploadedFile =
$request.getParameter('uploadedFile'))*

      #end

      #set($structureType = "Aduseranswers")
      #set($theinode = $oldAnswer.inode)
      #set($theidentifier = $oldAnswer.identifier)
      #set($uid = $session.getAttribute("USER_ID"))

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

Is this code not working?

The logic looks ok but I don't know what you're doing with these variables
on the code so I don't know if it's okay or not.

The only thing that's confusing is that you're setting two different
objects on $defaultUploadedFile, one is the uploadedFile that comes in the
content object,and the second case the uploaded file from the browser.

Since I don't see the entire code I'm not sure how you're handling that
later in the code.

Thanks
Maria

It seems that there is no built-in way to edit content structure data on
the front-end? Here's also the later part of my code:

#if($UtilMethods.isSet($oldAnswer))

      #set($submitContentSrc = "/vtl/content_form_macro_override_edit.vtl")

      #set($defaultAnswernumeric = $oldAnswer.answernumeric)
      #set($defaultAnswertext = $oldAnswer.answertext)

      #if($request.getParameter('uploadedFile') == "")

              #set($defaultUploadedFile = $oldAnswer.uploadedFile)
      #else
              #set($defaultUploadedFile =
$request.getParameter('uploadedFile'))

      #end

      #set($structureType = "Aduseranswers")
      #set($theinode = $oldAnswer.inode)
      #set($theidentifier = $oldAnswer.identifier)
      #set($uid = $session.getAttribute("USER_ID"))

      #else
            #set($submitContentSrc = "/vtl/content_form_macro_override.vtl")
      #end
            #if($content.answertype.selectValue == "i" ||
$content.answertype.selectValue == "f")
              #set($dontShowFields = "answertext, uploadedFile")
            #elseif($content.answertype.selectValue == "t")
              #set($dontShowFields = "answernumeric, uploadedFile")
            #elseif($content.answertype.selectValue == "u")
              #set($dontShowFields = "answernumeric")
            #end
            #set($contentAutoPublish = true)
            #set($currentURLMapContent =
$dotcontent.find($URLMapContent.identifier))
            #set($pageUri = $currentURLMapContent.getUrlMap())
              #set($pp = $pp - 1)
            #set($myUrl = $pageUri + "?page=" + $pp)
            #set($contentFormReferer = $!myUrl)
      #set($Parent_Aduserresearches-Child_Aduseranswers =
$myAduserresearches.identifier)
      #set($Parent_Adquestions-Child_Aduseranswers  = $content.identifier)
            *#submitContent('aduseranswers')*

No, right now there isn't a macro to edit content in the frontend.

I don't think you can use submitContent to save this content though.

Are you getting errors with this code? What is working and what is not
working?

Can you edit content without the file upload? Is that the only thing that
is not working on the code right now?

Yes. The file upload is the only thing which isn't working. This is an
application tool which allows users to write and upload answers and
save(submit) them. Users can log out and again log in and the old answers
are retrieved from the structures. After this a user can save again his/her
answer. The problem is that when a user uploads a new file, it doesn't
override the old one. So a user can edit and update his textarea text but
overriding the old file isn't working..

Let me see if we have an example anywhere on how to do this.

If not, I'll try it on demo on Monday.
