Hello,

We are urgently seeking a developer specifically familiar with RSForms Pro (on latest Joomla 3+) for a custom PHP approach to duplicating tables data accordingly.

What we want is a robust solution that allows for:

  • a button be added that would allow the duplication of a submission (record) (new ID) so the user doesn't have to reenter all of the content, just update a few fields
  • Some of our clients use Forms to create 'tickets' that they can edit in Directories afterward and re-download. But it would useful for them to be able to create duplicate/triplicate copies of an original submission, so that they can go into View Directories and then edit only several of the fields and save.
  • I am thinking the best UX would be that there is a checkbox/button/etc. in the Form that says "Make a duplicate of this submission?" YES/NO (default NO), and if the user chooses YES, then when they subsequently click SUBMIT, the system will create 2 copies of that submission in the db.

This is an urgent project, though we are looking for a solution that is robust and not likely to break other critical functionality of RSForms Pro, as the particular set of forms (and View Directories, etc) we have built are quite complex. It would be ideal if the solution can be built on a test installation, and then we can transfer it easily to our Live production site (eg. a plug-in or extension perhaps).

Many Thanks
