Hi,
I am trying to work out how to create a redirect after a forms submission. I am using the Zoo component with Joomla and currently as frontend form that upon the suibmit button being activated, redirects the user to a clean form with a basic thankyou message. I am trying to instead, have the user redirected to a specific url instead of getting hit with the form again. I have managed to work out that it probably has to do with the following code (part of a bigger picture), but I am a bit green when it comes to PHP…
would very much appreciate any ideas or leads…
kind regards,
Luke
// set redirect message
$msg = $this->submission->isInTrustedMode() ? JText::_('Thanks for your submission.') : JText::_('Thanks for your submission. It will be reviewed before being posted on the site.');
// trigger saved event
$this->app->event->dispatcher->notify($this->app->event->create($this->submission, 'submission:saved', array('item' => $this->item, 'new' => !$edit)));
} else {
// add post data to session if form is not valid
$this->app->system->application->setUserState($this->session_form_key, serialize($post));
}
} catch (SubmissionControllerException $e) {
$error = true;
// raise warning on exception
$this->app->error->raiseWarning(0, (string) JText::_($e));
} catch (AppException $e) {
$error = true;
// raise warning on exception
$this->app->error->raiseWarning(0, JText::_('There was an error saving your submission, please try again later.'));
// add exception details, for super administrators only
if ($this->user->superadmin) {
$this->app->error->raiseWarning(0, (string) $e);
}
}
// redirect to mysubmissions
if ($this->redirectTo == 'mysubmissions' && !$error) {
$link = $this->app->route->mysubmissions($this->submission);
// redirect to edit form

throw new AppControllerException('You are not allowed to make changes to this item.');
}
$table->delete($item);
// set redirect message
$msg = JText::_('Submission Deleted');
