Change the status of a user
18 January 2013 at 12:15am
Ok i apologise first, i'm having a really really bad week and my brain is fried. This maybe a simple request but i just cant see it any-more.
I have a table of users displayed on the front end, just lists their name the company name and their status.
The status can be either 1 or 2 and on the same row as their details i want to put a button that if their status is 1 when it's clicked it changes the status to 2 if it's clicked again it changes it to 1.That's it and I cant think of the best way to do it.... is this gonna be a form or is there another way of doing this, which is best?
Hope you can help
Mick

Ok i have moved forward, maybe...
I believe this is the code i need but for the life of me i cant work out how to call this function from a button click.
public function Activate() {
$memberid = $this->owner->ID;
$member = Member::get()->byID($memberid);
if ($member) {
$member->Status = "2";
$member->write();
}

Ok well 1 step forward 5 steps back...
Below is a picture of what i'm trying to achieve.I'm using a form so i can call the Activate function and if i hard code the value of the hidden field to be a member ID it works.
public function ActivateForm() {
$fields = new FieldList(
new HiddenField('ID' , 'aID', $ID )
);
$actions = new FieldList(
new FormAction('Activate', 'Activate')
);
$form = new Form($this, 'ActivateForm', $fields, $actions);
return $form;
}
public function Activate() {
$theID = $_POST["ID"];
$member = DataObject::get_by_id("Member", $theID);
if ($member) {
$member->Status = "2";
$member->write();
}
Controller::curr()->redirectBack();
}
The trouble is as this form is called within a control loop i have to use the $Up.ActivateForm to display the form but this therefore that puts the form outside of the Member loop.
How do i get the member ID value i can pass it the ActivateForm function?Mick

I can't remember if this works or not with SS3 new template system but you could try passing in the member id as an argument.
<% loop Member %>
$Up.ActivateForm($ID)
<% end_loop %>and in your ActivateForm() function
public function ActivateForm($memberID){
if($memberID){
$ID = $memberID;
}
..... rest of your code
}Not sure if that will work though.
A better solution would be to make this ajax driven. It would create a much friendlier user experience but does add some complexity for you. http://ss2doc-v2.ernie.silverstripe.com/old/recipes:ajax_basics.

Hi ya,
Thanks for the response, unfortunately the passing an argument didn't seem to work, the form just didn't show up. Will look at the ajax stuff although i don't really know too much about that.
Thanks
Mick
