I'm needing help creating a form for the frontend where the user can edit a DataObject.
The website is basically a planner, so the user has a project (or projects) assigned to them. The projects are made up of 9 steps which the user works through gradually. Where I'm stuck is giving the user the ability to edit the Project dataobjects "Title" and "Description".
Here's what I have so far:
Edit project form
public function EditProjectForm() {
$projectID = (int) $this->request->param('ID');
$project = Project::get()->byID($projectID);
$project->ProjectID = $project->ID;
$fields = new FieldList(
TextField::create('Title', 'Project Title'),
TextareaField::create('Description', 'Project Description'),
FileField::create('ProjectImage', 'ProjectImage'),
TextField::create('Category', 'Category'),
TextField::create('ProjectID')
);
$actions = new FieldList(
FormAction::create("doEdit", 'Submit changes')
);
$form = new Form($this, 'EditProjectForm', $fields, $actions);
$form->loadDataFrom($project);
return $form;
}
doEdit Action
public function doEdit($data, Form $form) {
$projectID = $data['ProjectID'];
$project = Project::get()->byID($projectID);
$form->saveInto($project);
$project->Title = $data['Title'];
$project->Description = $data['Description'];
$project->write();
$this->redirectBack();
}
This creates the form fine, and populates the form with the projects information. But when I click doEdit it just goes to a blank white page at www.mypage.com/EditProjectForm
I'm really stuck on this, and given I'm very much a beginner to PHP this is a major headache...
