(update: problem found at end of post, but I've left the whole post intact to show how it came about)
I can make an error happen every time by doing this:
Add new item
Type title
Type brief description
Type full description
Click Upload, browse to an image
Click Page (a page on your site)
Leave Homepage as selected page
Untick Track number of times this is clicked
Click update
Error appears as below
Error: Add/Edit Item is currently unavailable.
DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. ---> System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at WDKns.wildPortfolio.wildPortfolioEdit.cmdUpdate_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---
The extended error message from the site log is:

Any ideas what this might be?
>>>>> update <<<<<
oh... I see... when I carry out the step to choose "Page (a page in your site)" it erases the path to the image I had selected in the previous step.
Yes, I've checked again and that is the problem.
The Image Upload section will need some work:
Can you also make it so that it either holds onto the browsed image-path when the URL is selected, or that it at least validates the then-empty field rather than causing an exception?
As for the image upload/browse/select workflow.. would it not be possible to make it work exactly like other modules do in the same situation? The fact that it differs by missing out one of the usual steps (the one to "upload selected image") is going to make this module confusing to people.
Also, I'm a little confused why one absolutely must select a page or link for each item. In the typical scenario my customers are in.. for example a florist wanting to display images and text about flowers done for a wedding, or a photo shoot, there is only the the details view to link to.. nothing else. Could this not be optional.. or perhaps it could simply default to the details view if no specific external link or internal page is available?
Best regards,
Rob |

You can turn images off completely by disabling both items in URL. Uncheck 'Allow External' and 'Allow Internal'. The control for the URL will not be loaded.
Also, you are not required to put a value in the URL, even though the message indicates that you need to. |
