I'm having trouble setting up a newsletter subscription page. I get this error message on publishing it:

Fatal error: Call to a member function getRecord() on a non-object in /sites/ss2demo/www/sapphire/forms/CheckboxSetField.php on line 20

I tried setting one up also on the SS demo site and got the same error message. Is it a bug or have i missed something out ?

Yes, I got the same problem so I would be keen to hear any thoughts on this from the devs.

Hi guys,

Would you mind trying to applying the following patches that I posted at http://www.silverstripe.com/bugs/flat/1675 and seeing if they fix your problem?:
Fix-bug-Specific-newsletters-option-in-newsletter-subscription-form-page-type-does-not-work-cms-sapphire-gsoc-r37301.patch
Fix-bug-AllNewsletters-value-not-being-passed-to-OptionsetField-cms-gsoc-r37360.patch

What version of SilverStripe are you running? Let me know if it's SilverStripe 2.0.2b and I can try to patch and attach fixed files to this post.

Hope this helps,

Elijah Lofgren

Hello, yes, I am running 2.0.2b.

Hi Jo,

It's gotten late here so I need to head to bed. I'll try to post the patched files here on Monday. ;)

Hehe, no worries :-)

Attached is a patch for 2.0.2b that simply applies the fixes that have already been applied to SilverStripe trunk (http://svn.silverstripe.com/open/modules/)

If you don't want to use the a patch (apply on Linux with "patch -p0 < Fix-Specific-Newsletter-Bug-for-202b.diff"), you can get the fixed version of the two files here:
http://svn.silverstripe.com/open/modules/sapphire/trunk/forms/CheckboxSetField.php
http://svn.silverstripe.com/open/modules/cms/trunk/code/Newsletter/SubscribeForm.php

Hope this helps,

Elijah

Applying these patches worked for me. Thanks a lot :)
