I am trying to:

Update a post

Link to a page where the issue can be seen:

hidden link (a login will be needed)

I expected to see:

When logged in there is an edit icon alongside each person allocated to a duty. When clicked the edit form opens on a new display page where the two data fields can be changed and updated. When the submit is clicked I expect to see the record updated.

Instead, I got:

When submit is clicked, the data is not updated. However, if submit is clicked a second time, it updates as expected.

This problem has already been reported here:

https://toolset.com/forums/topic/edit-form-dies-not-work-properly-problem-to-submit/

In my website, everything is up to date and the form facility has been working (until now) for over a year.

I have tried a second browser - same result.

I am using Toolset Starter Child Theme. No recent plugins added.

Thanks
Tony

Hello,

I assume we are talking about a Toolset form for editing post, I suggest you follow our document to setup the edit form link:
https://toolset.com/documentation/getting-started-with-toolset/publish-content-from-the-front-end/forms-for-editing/

If the problem still persists, please try these:
1) In case it is a compatibility problem, please deactivate other plugins, and switch to wordpress default theme 2017, and test again, also check if there is any JS/PHP errors when you submit the form first time
https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/debugging-sites-built-with-toolset/

2) If the problem still persists, please provide database dump file(ZIP file) of your website, also point out the problem page URL and view URL, I need to test and debug it in my localhost, thanks

Thanks Luo

I suspected something had changed with the extensive software upgrades recently, but I have found the bit that seems to be critical. All of my old CRED forms seem to work fine except one that is a bit more complex.

I have done as you suggested and re-built that edit form and it is now working apart from some tidying.

For other Toolset Users, the key seems to be:

"2. Create a Content Template for displaying the editing form"

In my system I was just adding CRED codes wherever I needed them without creating a specific CRED template. Once I created the CRED template, it all started working as before.

I now just need to re-work the other forms so everything is up to current spec.

Thanks again Luo for pointing something out that I should have spotted.

Tony
