SID-00935: Shorthand not working after upgrade

Category:	CategorySearch	Server OS:		Last update:	15 years ago

Hi,

I just upgraded from 4.1 to 4.3 and carried over the existing data. The Sandbox files I copied are not even displayed and in the rest (like formulas) all the tables created with the shorthandform (| ...|) are not displayed as tables, they are displayed with the | (in shorthand language).

Any idea how to fix this, because I need to use the old data ...

Thanks a lot!

Discussion and Answer

Not sure what is wrong. There is no compatibility issue between 4.1 and 4.3 Can you post an example that does not work?

I figured out the Sandbox thing, this was just a mistake of mine. I will try to describe the other error. When creating a form with a table inside it is shown correctly but when I use this form in another topic it just shows the code with all the | symbols ... I will try to attach some files: in RackForm.txt is the form and in FormTableTest.txt the topic using the RackForm. I will also attach screenshots of the FormTableTest with 4.1 and 4.3 (it's the same with 5.0). (I had to cut of some parts of the screenshot because the twiki is only for internal use and I don't want to get in trouble)

Thanks a lot and I hope I attached all relevant documents.

(btw: how can I insert code in here without getting it compiled by this twiki?)

Hope I did the attachment correctly or is there a way to attach directly to my post?

(Sorry if I did any mistakes!)

Somehow the support form got removed, I restored it.

Thanks a lot, I'm sorry if I caused this trouble!

Ok, I now read that this is has been done to protect the topics from injury through wrong TWikiCode in forms. So I had to change the protectFormFieldValue()to allow tables in formfields.

So this is solved
