Hi there,

I have a requirement for members of a site to annually agree a confidentiality policy as well as a few others. The thought is for this process to be come electronic and part of the website. Currently team members login to a team site where information is stored what i want to do is to come up with a way of them agreeing a policy by ticking a box and then re entering their password this will then log the tick box and the date it was ticked. Has anyone done something similar and how do you get a logged in member to have to log in again?

Any help or pointers please.

Mick

I would suggest you have a normal form, with a validator that using the checkpassword (http://api.silverstripe.org/2.4/sapphire/security/Member.html#methodcheckPassword) to validate the it is the memeber and then in the form action can updat the relelvant boolean field on the member/decorated member object

Nice that seems like a nice way, will give that a go.

Cheers

Mick

Ok its late and the brain isnt working very well, i have my form but i have no idea how to call the checkpassword validator or function. below is my form code, anyone able to give me some direction please?

Mick.

function PolicyForm() {
	
	Requirements::javascript(THIRDPARTY_DIR .'/jquery/jquery.js');
	Requirements::javascript(THIRDPARTY_DIR .'/jquery-ui/jquery.ui.core.js');
	Requirements::javascript(THIRDPARTY_DIR .'/jquery-ui/jquery.ui.datepicker.js');
	
	
		$fields = new FieldSet(
			
			new DatePickerField('DateTaken', 'Date Agreed'),
			new TextField('password'),
			new HiddenField('SkillID','', 24),
			new HiddenField('MemberID','', 1)
			);
		
		$validator = new RequiredFields( 
         'password' 
      );
		
		$actions = new FieldSet(
			new FormAction('doPolicyinfo', 'Submit')
		);
		
		return new Form($this, 'PolicyForm', $fields, $actions, $validator);
		
		}
			
	function doPolicyinfo($data, $form) {
		$Course = new Course();
		$form->saveInto($Course);
		$Course->write();
		
		
		Director::redirectBack();
		}

change

$validator = new RequiredFields( 'password' ); 

for

$validator = new PolicyForm_Validator( 'password'); 

and add...

class PolicyForm_Validator extends RequiredFields {
	function php($data) {
		$bRet = parent::php($data);

		$doMember = Member::currentUser();

		if (!$doMember->checkPassword($data['password'])) {		
			$this->validationError('password','wrong password',"required");
			$bRet = false;
		}
		
		return $bRet;
	}
}

Hi there,

Many thanks for the code. I have had a play but im guessing im missing something fundamental, although the form saves the data it does it even if the password entered is incorrect. I have pasted my full code below.

<?php
class Policy extends Page {
   
	static $db = array(
   	  		
	);
	static $has_many = array(
	
	);
   
   function getCMSFields() {
		$fields = parent::getCMSFields();
		return $fields;
	}
}
class Policy_Controller extends Page_Controller {

	public function init() {
		parent::init();
			Requirements::css('sar/css/sar.css');
	}

	 
	function PolicyForm() {
	
	Requirements::javascript(THIRDPARTY_DIR .'/jquery/jquery.js');
	Requirements::javascript(THIRDPARTY_DIR .'/jquery-ui/jquery.ui.core.js');
	Requirements::javascript(THIRDPARTY_DIR .'/jquery-ui/jquery.ui.datepicker.js');
	
	
		$fields = new FieldSet(
			
			new DatePickerField('DateTaken', 'Date Agreed'),
			new TextField('password'),
			new HiddenField('SkillID','', 24),
			new HiddenField('MemberID','', 1)
			);
		
		$validator = new PolicyForm_Validator( 
         'password' 
      );
		
		$actions = new FieldSet(
			new FormAction('doPolicyinfo', 'Submit')
		);
		
		return new Form($this, 'PolicyForm', $fields, $actions, $validator);
		
		}
			
	function doPolicyinfo($data, $form) {
		$Course = new Course();
		$form->saveInto($Course);
		$Course->write();
		Director::redirectBack();
		}

}


class PolicyForm_Validator extends RequiredFields { 
   function php($data) { 
      $bRet = parent::php($data);

      $doMember = Member::currentUser();

      if (!$doMember->checkPassword($data['password'])) {       
         $this->validationError('password','wrong password',"required"); 
         $bRet = false; 
      } 
       
      return $bRet; 
   } 
  }


?>

The template page.

iv class="twoCol">
    
    <% include Sidebar %>

    <div id="content" class="typography">
		
			$PolicyForm
		
		
		
		
	</div>  <!-- /Content -->

    <div class="clear">&nbsp;</div>
    
</div><!-- /Two Column Layout -->

regards Mick

can you use log statements / debugger to check if the validators php function is being called?

Ok the function is being called, i've placed

die($bRet);

both before the

if (!$doMember->checkPassword($data['password'])) {       
         $this->validationError('password','wrong password',"required"); 
         $bRet = false; 
      } 

and after and it always responds with a 1 whether the password is correct or false.
