Getting data from form

Hi Drew,

I tried this earlier but I was having problems displaying the entries. I can see here that I can use a template but will I have to use perch:comments id values? or i can use perch:contents?

Okay so how would I get the data from the form? can I use the id of the form? also how can I put an expiry on a comment?

Hi Drew,

So how would i get the data to appear on the template I made?

the template looks like this

<div class="job-item col-xl-4 col-lg-4 col-md-4 col-sm-4 col-xs-12">
            <div class="job-holder">
                <div class="main-details">
                    <div class="company-logo">
                        <img src="assets/img/example-logo.png">
                    </div>
                    <h3>Job Title</h3>
                </div>
                <div class="sub-details">
                    <h4><span class="bold">Salary:</span> € 0000</h4>
                    <h4><span class="bold">Location:</span> London</h4>
                    <h4><span class="bold">Hours:</span> 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM</h4>
                    <h4><span class="bold">Description:</span> <br><span class="description">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Sed finibus, nunc at fringilla hendrerit, eros nisi viverra nunc, elementum pellentesque nunc elit ac leo. In hac habitasse platea dictumst. Praesent gravida, urna sit amet accumsan molestie, diam justo ultricies lectus, vitae ullamcorper risus sem vitae ligula. Morbi eu tempor turpis. Quisque iaculis varius ex nec tincidunt. In hac habitasse platea dictumst. Duis magna libero, imperdiet ut laoreet eget, consequat ut tellus. </span> </h4>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>

I also connected my form template to the cms but when i checked my entry it wasn't on the comments app.

Hi Drew, Finally got this to work. The only problem left is that there is an upload image field on the form and It doesn't seem to show on the page.

this is my code on the comments_form.html

 <div class="form-group">
         <label>Upload Logo</label>
          <perch:input type="image" class="form-control-file type-button" id="commentLogo" />
 </div>

on my job-list html (which is the template I use to display comments) here is my code

<div class="company-logo">
         <img src="<perch:comments type="image" class="form-control-file type-button" id="commentLogo" />">
</div>

How do I also show these custom fields on the CMS? and how can I set the status default to pending?

Thanks!

Yikes! That's too bad.. hmmm is there a way to work around this?

And also the fields? how can i display the custom fields i made on the cms of the comments app as well as setting the default status to pedning?

Thanks Drew!

Oh, okay. Got it Drew :) Thanks!

I will try that and see if the fields are shown on the admin.

Thanks ever so much Drew!

Hi Drew,

Good Morning!

I tried the <perch:showall /> tag and it did show the custom fields that I am working with but on the front-end. I wanna see these fields on the CMS and it should be editable by the administrator. Is that possible with the comments app?

Thank you!

Hi Drew,

Okay. Which master template file should I place this tag? On the form template or the comment list template?

Hi Drew,

It worked! thank you so much!
