Customizing an Individual Thanks Page
This How-to applies to: Any version.
It's not hard to customize the thanks page for an individual form. This trick is particularly useful for purposes like adding 'pay now' buttons.
If you can tolerate a little work in the Zope Management Interface, you'll find it very easy to customize the Thanks Page
for an individual form.
The steps:
- Create your form;
- Bring up the Zope Management Interface; navigate to portal_skins/PloneFormGen;
- Open the fp_thankspage_view template; push the Customize button; this puts an editable copy of the thanks page template in your custom skin folder.
- Step back to the Custom folder listing (still in the ZMI); cut the fp_thankspage_view template;
- Navigate to your form folder; paste it there.
- Edit the template to insert your Pay/Donate Now form and button code, or whatever other custom code you might need just for this form.
Note: If there is already an fp_thankspage_view template in your custom skin folder (perhaps because you've already customized the template for the site), you'll be cutting and pasting a new copy.
