Hi, just wanted to let you know the old forum seems to be down...

Hoping you can bring it back up as it is a wealth of Perch information. Really valuable to me, and I'm sure, the rest of the community.

Thank you, Monty

Thanks Byron, I'll look to take a different approach somehow.

Perch almost did it, but not quite.

Yes, agreed. Please can we keep it.

Has the old Perch forum been taken down? There was a lot of useful information there.

I don't think there is a way without creating a custom app or editing the perch_forms runtime file.

For the most part your idea works, but the form tries to find the attributes to assign a form title. In the perch_forms/runtime file this is the section…

I don't know. But there was a PHP 7.3 fix in Perch 3.1.4 https://grabaperch.com/update/v3-1-4 in December 2018. To me, that means "proceed with caution". Testing on staging server is highly recommended

Personally, I would update Perch first before…

Hi Clive, that's very helpful, many thanks.

Thanks Byron, is there any other way to dynamically separate the responses?

Unfortunately your idea won't work.

When perch gets the form attributes it fetches the content of the template file, so no template processing occurs. So when perch tries to get the ID it sees

<perch:form id="<perch:forms id="formID" />" method="post"…

I'm struggling to get the id of a form to be unique based on the page it is used on. The template renders but when the form is submitted I get a fatal error.

The ID needs to be different as the responses need to be saved in separate lists based on the…

Some of you may already know but, for any new folks on the Forum, I maintain a list of third party add-ons for Perch.

This list includes apps, field types, template filters, plugins etc.

Thanks for this Clive. I've used your list before in the past, and it has been very useful.

There's also a small collection here, not add-ons as such but they have proved useful. Especially perch-redactor-default which enables all the extra menu…

If it's useful here's my config file. It has the alignment and font colour plugins, plus some custom classes.

Hi
Is there a Perch vs PHP compatability table somewhere that I can refer to?

Specifically, I'm trying to find out whether I can safely upgrade PHP from 7.2 to 7.3.27 without upsetting a Perch 3.1.1 that I am running. I dont want to upgrade the Perch…

I saw a post some time ago, I think, in the now-defunct old Perch forum.

Somebody posted a chunk of code that would be in the htaccess file - a content security policy that would mean Perch CMS would still function.

Would any of the kind people in…

Thanks for this, I'll give this a shot.
