Linking create profile to front end
November 29, 2007, 08:52:16 am
Hi all,

after trying to use Civicrm with Joomla, and found that some functions (such as acitivities) are not available from the front end, I've now moved to Drupal...

I've managed to install the following:
civicrm 1.9.11960
drupal 5.3

I have created a new profile which can be accessed from the front end. Along the way I hit the problem of not being able to use the links :

<site root>/civicrm/profile/edit?reset=1&gid=N

until I released that this will NOT work without Clean URL's enabled (just in case that catches someone else out...)

The alternative is to use :
<site root>/index.php?q=civicrm/profile/edit?reset=1&gid=1


However, I cannot link the profile to the front end to CREATE a new organisation. The link :
<site root>/index.php?q+civicrm/profile/create?reset=1&gid=1

Gives me the same webpage as edit?reset=1&gid=1 or view?reset=1&gid=1

I've gone through all of the extensive permissions menus to see if it's related to that, but all these settings seem OK.

Please could someone spot if I'm doing something wrong?

I managed to get the create profile function working in Joomla on the front end using :
<site root>/index.php?option=com_civicrm&itemid=27

Any thoughts would be gratefully received to prevent more hairloss from pulling it out!

Many thanks

G

When you're NOT using clean URLs, ALL name=value pairs after the "q=" must be separated by the ampersand (&) character.

So, instead of:
<site root>/index.php?q=civicrm/profile/create?reset=1&gid=1

... you need to do this:
<site root>/index.php?q=civicrm/profile/create&reset=1&gid=1
