Show the URL in the second step

[oomta]

Hello everybody,

I tried searching the forums but came up empty.

I would like to remove the URL submission box from step 1, but have it available in step 2.

I want the URL to be optional (Required is set to false in the admin).

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance!

Can't give you an exact example because my submit.php page is too modified.

To get you started add a new form field on your step 2 page. Name it something like story_url

Then in your submit.php page search for:
$linkres->title_url = makeUrlFriendly($linkres->title);

And under this add:

$linkres->link_url = makeUrlFriendly(sanitize($_POST['story_url'], 3));


What this is doing is including your story_url form field in the linkres collection with the title, content, category, etc.

I am guessing you will need to modify $linkres->store(); to include the link_url in the table update but this should get you started on your way.

O and I'm not sure if makeUrlFriendly and or sanitize will work with URL's, if you run into problems I would suggest removing them and once you get things working re-add them for security reasons.
