Hi,
I would like to have a small form that is reused in many space pages and have all completed forms collate in a table on Page A (Documentation Templates Main) with the form fields as columns. I see you can do this and have the table show the results on the same page but need a collated version that shows all the result on another page.
I define the form on page B (above) and I try to collate them using ConfiForms TableView and input the page location in "Page name where the form is defined" I select the page suggestion I want- Page A (Documentation Templates Main). I get this error aler t below:
Can I not simply generate the form results on another page using the ConfiForms TableView? Am I doing this wrong?
Maybe there is a better way to do this. Let me know if you need more info.
Thanks!!
Colin
Hi @Colin Roeke and welcome to this community
You have DocumentationTemplates (plural) form on the page A, but you reference a DocumentationTemplate form on the page B

Thanks @Alex Medved _ConfiForms_ Yes, you are correct about the "s". I corrected it and still not working. Maybe this process has been discussed and you could point me to the QA? I would think this is a common task and there would be a tutorial, but I have looked and looked with no luck. Maybe it is not common to reuse a form on multiple pages and have results collate in one table. Anyways, I thank you for any help/wisdom.
Thanks again!

This is a core concept of ConfiForms... having a form definition (configuration) in one place and having form views and other views on different pages or spaces...
What is not working for you specifically?
Here is a little demo (very simplified - only the basic parts)
Hope it helps

@Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
thank you so much for the demo! I had a few things mixed up- working for me now.
I may have more questions. Working on a field drop down of options to chose from now.
Thanks,
Colin

Hi again @Alex Medved _ConfiForms_ - quick question: Any idea on how to adjust the column width or constrain it. Currently, the link pushes the width out as wide as the number of link characters until there is a space. This is in ConfiForms TableView’ Macro. Maybe CSS is needed?
Thanks so much,
Colin

You can try with fixed width table https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/How+to+create+a+table+with+fixed+width+columns+in+Confluence+with+ConfiForms
Or creating a link with a asLink function, as per https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/Virtual+functions giving it some label to make it shorter

Thanks for the link. That was the direction I needed. Didn't quite work so I instead used word-break: break-all; because of the link in the field not breaking in the fixed width column. working now. Thanks!
