Empty Storage Page Creation

[Ilcin]

Hello,

I've written a (more complex) Form using Confiforms consisting of two parts.
In the first part I have a "Main Application" where a user enters general information "name, mail, ..." and uploads some required documents.
In the second part I can add "Components". Here I combine each component with the Main Application.
To do so I have defined every Definition in on the page of the "Main Application". I finish my form there, go to "Add Components" and add as many as I want.

On the "Add Component" parts I have radio buttons which show/hide or set values on other fields depending on the button.

The Problem now is that when there are Uploaded files on the "Add Component" page and I chose a radio button because of the radio button value Confiforms creates up to 10 empty secure storage pages.

Also if I upload a file at "Add Component", submit my form and the validation rules throw an error (e.g. empty field) new empty storage pages are created too.

I don't know why this happens or how to fix it. Right now I'm working with an API to detect and delete empty pages. But I'd still like to know the reason for this behavior. (I had up to 80.000 empty pages in total created like this!)

Thanks in advance!

ConfiForms could create pages for you, but it creates exactly what you tell it / configure to do

when you configure a form to have secure storage then every record you store will create a page to store the attachments, and will restrict the permissions to make it “secure”

May I see the storage format for your form?

I don't think I can share the storage format, sorry.

The problem is that I don't create a new record when the validation rules show/hide fields or set values. This only happens when I have inserted a file already. Somehow the validation rules cause the empty storage pages without a new entry being created and I don't know why.

In you ConfiForms Definition macro unset the "secure storage" option! I believe it is set.

And I think you are correct about the issue with ConfiForms, when secure attachments is turned on and the validation happens to create an empty page. This will be fixed asap in the plugin.

That would be great! For security reasons I can't unset the "secure storage" option so a fix would be an optimal solution for me. I will write a contact formular as soon as I can, explaining the problem in detail if that would be alright?
