Hi

Trying to add a link to the form listing as per www.rsjoomla.com/support/documentation/v...-view-menu-item.html, but in my results I get "{detailspdf}Download PDF" instead of the actual link.

Here's my code:
<tr>
	<td>{details}{sc_lname:value}, {sc_fname:value}{/details}</td>
	<td>{sc_email:value}</td>
	<td>{detailspdf}Download PDF{/detailspdf}</td>
</tr>

I have both Content and PDF modules installed and enabled. Can someone please advise?

Regards,
George

Found the solution myself (or more of a miss on my side). Apparently you have to say "Yes" to "Enable Viewing Submissions ?" in the backend for the URL to appear.

Which raises another question - how come I was able to view the form and details while Viewing Submissions was set to "No"? In my setup I had Submissions set up as module and included in an article so this is not 100% how it was intened (vs. linking from the menu). It is, however, a security hole.

The module is a totally separate thing to the menu item. It doesn't matter what settings you setup in the menu item, they don't affect the module and vice-versa.

As for the "security hole" you are mentioning: as a visitor, you can guess the URL of a menu item (index.php?option=com_rsform&view=submissions&formId=3) and you could as a result view the submissions. This is why the parameter was added - so that people won't be able to view submissions when they're not allowed to do so.
But you can't view a module unless an administrator adds it so you've explicitly allowed people to view submissions by setting up a module inside an article.
