Remove fields from upload form
Posted: 17 Sep 05 6:38 PM (United States)

How do we limit what a user has to fill out or see when they do an upload, ie date,etc? We want to make it so these fields are either auto-populated or do not appear on the form.

 

Thanks, Mike

Mike,
there is no user function available for disable / enable the required fields nor an user function to set the default values for fields.

I think, the only way is to change it in the code and the ascx controls.

Hi Hans-Peter,

How much would you charge to make the changes in code for us.  We would like the following fields to be selected yet invisible to the user making the upload.  Only an administrator should see everything.  This is most important in the security role section.  Since each of our clients has their own page and assigned security role and just uploads their items, we do not want them to see who our other clients are.  Currently, any cleint can see all security roles and give that role permission to see their stuff.

 

Thanks for your help.

Mike

Mike,

first sorry for my late answer, but it seems that there is a problem with the forum notification for new posts.

Do you need a setup option for that so that you can switch on an off this option, or is is fine for you if the fields should not available (not visible) for normal user.

The only problem is the description field, the field is required, that means an entry in this field is necessary. Maybe I can set the field data to the Title information.

If that is what you need, I will make the change for you.

If you will be happy with the changes, you can donate some for the project.

Send me a short info.


Best regards

Hi Hans-Peter,

A setup option would be best, so if we need those fields in the future we can use them easily, but just having them not visible would also be ok.  Also, if the description field is too much trouble we can just leave that field in and that would be ok too, as long as we can hide some of the other variables to make the form quicker.  Our users are not very computer literate, so we are just trying to make it as easy as possible for them to do the upload.

Thanks again for your help and let me know if you have any questions.  We will also for sure donate.

Mike
