    Preview of entered data as a step in a Contour form?

    Hi!

    I'm considering using Contour for a form where the user can:

    1. Enter data via a form (including uploading images)

    2. Click a next button

    3. See a preview of what the entered data will look like

    4. Have the option to send or go back and edit the information.

    It's the preview step that I'm not sure about? Can it be done in Contour?

    Regards,
    Thomas Kahn

    Hi Thomas,

    Sure you could make a custom fieldtype that does that. And on your second step you would only have that field ..

    Cheers,
    Tim

    Ah! Great!
    Thanks Tim!

    I guess this requires that the data entered in the first step is temporarily stored somewhere so it can be accessed and displayed by my custom fieldtype? Is this documented somewhere?

    Hi Thomas,

    Contour will store the records values ... So you'll only need to know the record id and then you can fetch all the values.

    Cheers,
    Tim

    Thanks Tim!

    Contour is such a great add on to Umbraco that I find myself trying to squeeze in functions that require a form handler in my projects, just to get the chance to explore it more!
