ConfiForms: Can I update an existing record using a custom layout form?

Mark_rvgd8l

I've created a custom-layout form using ConfiForms, which is working fine for data entry. I would like to allow users to update their record using the same form. I thought I could use a link, containing the entry's ID to allow it to pull up the record, but the examples I've found so far seem to be limited to standard views. Is this possible? Thanks!

Hi @Mark and welcome to this community

Have answered this in our (private) support queue, but will also answer it here - as may be it will be helpful to others

Your ConfiForms (FormView) Registrations Control macro must be inside the ConfiForms Form Definition macro in order to “define“ a default layout

When that is the case you can then have a ConfiForms Edit Controls macro to have this option enabled

Here are some screenshots to demonstrate this visually using macro configurations

This worked perfectly, thanks!

Is there any way to make the edit control "edit" button link to a full page instead of the pop up? My form is getting pretty complicated and hard to navigate (including multi-row) in the pop up view that this creates in the edit controls. I wish my table could just send them to a full page view that looks just like the registration control I have on a different page.

Is this on data center? @Lori Wilson

You should be able to point the Edit Controls to use the "Registrations Control" layout

True that it will still be presented in a dialog
