I realised when creating a form with Apex (Version 19.2) a "create" button is generated. This one's behaviour is set to "define by dynamic option". Now the issue and the question at the same time is the fact that upon changing the behaviour once and then returning it back to the default setting the button will stop working.
If I were to create a new button I would have to manualy write all the insert operations for the whole form which I want to avoid.
Is this a bug from Apex itself or am I missing something?
I've found that in Oracle Apex (I'm working in v20.2), sometimes it's just easier to recreate something than to spend hours hunting for the reason it doesn't work. I copy the code I need to my NotePad and then copy the code to the new something. As it was in this particular example I spent 2 hours searching for the problem, whilst actually fixing the problem (with a new button) only took 5 minutes. Part of my problem was that I didn't know why the button wasn't clicking (no pun intended).
In this particular case it was a button on a form that calls "Form - Automatic Row Processing (DML)", using a Create button that calls "SQL INSERT action" Database Action. The problem happened when I changed the form from Modal to Non Modal and Back again.

Hi everyone so I have a problem with Oracle Apex, I created a master-detail with a from and everything worked fine. Then I created another page within the same app but nothing connected to the page mentioned before, and now nothing on the first page works. When I try to create an entry the form opens I can type anything in and when I click "create" the form closes and nothing happens. Nothing is inserted into the database, edit also doesn't work as well ass deletes everything looks perfect till the form closes, the region refreshes but nothing actually happens.
No error shows up in the app or in the console/debugger
I checked the form processes and the DML is there.
Tried to manually set value in SQL Workshop and that works, I'm able to manually insert rows but not through the form.
Please help this is for my final project and I need this to work.
Thank you in advance!
Edit: 4) Also saw that no button works on the form. I have a combination of form + interactive grid and the grid usualy has like a page navigation buttons for previous/ next and those dont work aswell. So maybe i try deleting and re creating all the buttons?
EDIT2: Managed to fix it, and found that I was somehow missing the Close Dialog process in my form. Added it and now everything works!
Close dialog process in the form page was missing, recreated it from a different form, and now everything works!
In Experience Editor Whenever we try to save the item for first time it works correctly.
but as soon as we try to save same item second and further time we get a popup message saying that
"One or more items have been changed. Do you want to overwrite these changes?"
which was not in sitecore 7 ??
So please let me know this is the functionality or it is some kind of BUG
We have a rendering listing the selected items in a TreeSelect in the current item. In our case we call them "Tags" (1)
We have added a Field Editor Button to the component to let the editor change selected items. (2) (As described on for example Adding a custom component)
When an editor clicks (2) the editor window (3) it is opened in a dialog. The editor may select different items(called tags in our case) using the TreeSelect.
When the editor presses the ok-button (4) the values are set.
Now to the problem:
The values are actually set as they get stored when the editor presses the Save button but we want our list on the page (1) to immediately reflect the set items when the editor presses the ok-button (4), i.e. before having to actually save the whole item.
How do we achieve that?
(I am in contacts with Sitecore support but so far I have not gotten any answers...)
Update
After a lot of conversation with the support we still have no useful solution.
We tried turning it into a field renderer displaying the links.
What worked was:
The field do get updated when you have edited it in the popup field editor. (but...)
It looks good the first time when page is loaded.
You can make a WebEdit button with commands to edit the field and add it as Custom button to the field (register <command name="webedit:fieldeditor" type="Sitecore.Shell.Applications.WebEdit.Commands.FieldEditor, Sitecore.Client"/> and set Click on the button to webedit:fieldeditor(command={3473DDA1-2983-493C-AF7A-054C75AA7AD3},fields=NameOfField where the guid points to itelf and an "Icon" is set on it.)
What didn't work was:
The field get updated by the raw value, not what I want to display. Server code is involved, but not in the rendering of html-code.
When I want to edit the value in the field editor, the value sent to the field editor is not the raw value but what actually is displayed on the page. (I guess this can be solved somehow)
The issue to the support turned into a feature request to let the server be involved in rendering the field, not just sending a new value to the JavaScript updating it. The server does the first rendering so when it already is involved in updating, it should be allowed to do the rendering the following times too.
We have decided to not spend more time on this right now (we have other things to do too.) and have a bad editor experience as the field not get updated until the editor actually saves the item.
Still we have no suitable solution for this issue. If you want to keep working on it and want a reference to my issue it is 439059.
This may not be useful here. I've done this in normal sites, but not in Sitecore. But, here's one possibility....
This is a situation where you would pass a callback function to the child popup window. This callback will cause the caller / parent window to re-read/re-load the information that was just updated by the child.
Example:
User presses (2) to open Editor Window(3) (Editor window is opened and the Callback function is passed as a parameter)
User presses "OK" button (4). The "OK" button event handler updates the changes, then calls the Callback function which re-loads the now updated information, and closes the popup window.
Once the popup closes, the parent window now displays the information that the popup/editor just updated.
This takes some client side javascript (jquery) development but it is quite do-able normally.
I am trying to add a couple of ad widgets to my website http://yankeedesi.com. Please see the two widgets in the right panel. I created the widgets using the amazon associates interface and it showed up fine. However, when I try to change the style to gallery and transition to zoom and save it, the changes are not reflecting in my site. I am clicking on "Save" and then "Add to my webpage". I tried copying the generated code again (which looks the same as before) but even that did not work.
Even the new products I added are not reflected. Creating it afresh will probably work but I am experimenting with the style, and also intend to add/remove products on an ongoing basis, so every time I change something I don't want to recreate the widget. Any idea what I am doing wrong?
Have you republished your widget after the changes you have made as it is described in here?
UPDATE: (from OP's comment) I checked with their customer support and understand it is a known bug in their system. The workaround is to copy it to a new widget and delete the previous one. That works but is a tedious process if you have to make the changes frequently
I have several Sitecore items (whose template is connected to an approval workflow) that will not go into Edit mode when clicking "Edit" from the "Review" tab. The same workflow is used elsewhere on the site successfully (the site is more than 3 years old), but clicking Edit in this case doesn't seem to affect the workflow state.
I've turned on verbose logging, which provides a lot of detail, but nothing to indicate any error conditions. I've been comparing how this template is configured with other "working" templates for a couple of days and everything looks Kosher, but surely I'm missing something obvious.
EDIT: The item(s) in question are imported by a data provider, and I've confirmed that for some reason Sitecore is not setting the "Workflow" and "State" system standard fields with a default value. That appears to be at least part of the issue.
EDIT 2: Followed the steps in this thread http://sdn.sitecore.net/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=45991 to use Sitecore Rocks to update all of the items to the correct Workflow State, but the update did not stick. For some reason workflow changes are not persisted for imported items.
EDIT 3: Clicking the Edit dropdown button under the Home tab displays the message "The item is currently not part of a workflow."
Standard values set correctly? Only have one Standard Values item for this template?
Generally, almost every time I run into a situation where X works on certain items, but not on others... it's a permissions issue. You've tested this as an Administrator I hope?
Sorry my suggestions are so vague, but it's hard to be specific here. We need some more information from you... When you click on Edit what exactly are you expecting to happen? I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "Edit mode" here. In Content Editor, all items are essentially in edit mode all the time... In my configuration, when I click on Edit, I am just locking the item. It does not change workflow state or create a new version.
These items are coming from a data provider... is your data provider handling Lock/Unlock calls properly? I know it's possible to use a data provider without implementing the entire Item API.
