submit_new_entry_end not firing on quicksave?
Development and Programming
Hey guys,
This is one for the EE team or one of the many skilled develoeprs out there.
I think I have identified an issue that needs a little clarification + help. It seems that submit_new_entry_end doesn’t get called when you quicksave a new entry.
The docs hook description says “After an entry is submitted, do more processing” but this is not the case.
Any ideas on why this is or a work around?
Cheers Leevi
The docs say that this hook doesn’t return data so it isn’t possible that another extension might have used it right?…. Oh and I think I posted this in the wrong topic :(
Hi Leevi,
I am probably going to be wrong on this one but I was wondering if it has anything to do with using Quicksave?
Perhaps the hook only gets called when you use the Update button?
Really just guessing though. Don’t know if that helps in narrowing it down some more?
Best wishes,
Mark
Yeah that seems to be the issue.
But the docs are confusing: “After an entry is submitted, do more processing”
Maybe I will need to look into one of the other hooks :(
Don’t take what I have said as word though. I could definitely be wrong but I am thinking it might be that. Do you have to have it work on update as opposed to Publish specifically?
Best wishes,
Mark
There is an error (I believe) in the placement of the Quick Save return call in cp.publish.php
The Quick Save “out” comes before any of the submit_new_entry_(end|redirect|absolute_end) hooks can be reached.
This effectively neuters any custom extensions in the publish cycle.
