After a new record is saved.

Is there a way to forward the admin back to the records edit page instead of the listing page.

My users are getting lost after they add a record because there is no way for them to see the listing num or where the listing is located due to the sort on the listings page.

Hi,

You could change the sorting for the section under the sorting tab in the section editor. For example, you could sort by updatedDate, so that the last record edited would be the first record displayed on the listing page.

It may also help to add to the "ListPage Field", so you could control the fields that are displayed on the listing page.

Hope this helps.

Jason Changing the sorting isn't an option.

I need to specifically forward the user back to the edit page.

Hi,

Okay, you can try this.

You need to edit the file cmsAdmin/lib/menus/default/actionHandler.php

Part way down the file, you'll find an "if" clause that displays the "Saved" message after a save. Look for this:

// display alerts
if (@$_REQUEST['saved']) {

You can put your redirect code inside this if statement.

Hope this helps.

You can access the record number through
$_REQUEST['saved'];
