Contour 2 and Courier 2 working together? Using Umbraco 4.7.2
Hi
Im using the Tea Commerce starter kit which i think uses version Umbraco 4.7.2
Within my build im using a few forms, some are complex using
conditional logic. I want to transfer those 'form's' from my dev
enviroment to my production/staging enviroment.
I Have found the DLL that is supposed to help with this but as ive
tried it and found it breaks all my macro's i find a comment at the
bottom of the codplex page stating it will only work with Umbraco 5.
So my question's are:
a) Can I/Do I upgrade my Tea Commerce Umbraco install to a newer umbraco version? If so which one? and will this break anything if i do, how easy is it to upgrade?
b) Can I manually move the form's over by copying some files to some directory? If so, which ones and where?
Ok also noticed that you need to transfer :) there is a contour provider for courier but think it's a bit outdated (needs an update for conditional logic) your best solution would be to export the forms on dev and then import them on production (you can access export function by right clicking a form)
Ive gone ahead with that for the time being, just a shame i cant 'Courier' all the form information up to the production site. Other than that i think Contour is fantastic, really impressive to use.
I wondered if you could answer one other question:
In my multi step contour form, i want the user to be able to complete some of the steps, and then come back to it at a later date and time and still have the data they have inputted there, as in persistance, i assume this is possible? as long as they dont get to the final workflow item where it saves the information away and they then cant get back to it and change anything?
Its an application form im building, it has several steps, this data is long winded so the user may come back and forth several times to fill in the application and then when ready get to the end and submit the application/form? Does this sound feasible using Contour?
Well this will work out of the box with the usercontrol macro but will have to check if this also works with the razor version, any idea what you are using?
I'll be using the usercontrol macro hopefully. I havn't built the form yet as it's quite big, just fininshing off the Registering a memeber section so i can familirise myself with countour before attempting this large form :)

Any help would be greatfuly apreciated.

Hi Neil,
If you upgrade a site your contour forms should still be present so no need to copy them...

Hi Tim
Yep noticed the export and import options,
Ive gone ahead with that for the time being, just a shame i cant 'Courier' all the form information up to the production site. Other than that i think Contour is fantastic, really impressive to use.
