Question

Hi,

I have created a project template which allows users to create a new project document through a html form. We now want to use the WorkflowPlugin to record progress with these projects. This plugin requires another topic to define the workflow description.

Because each workflow description topic will be unique to the project, we want this to be created at the same time as the project document. This workflow description will in turn be based on a template of its own, which will just be the bare state and transition tables. I plan to fill these tables with information from the project document using a search or a form.

Is it possible to create a more than one topic from one HTML form? If not then I can probably see a couple of workarounds (i.e. modify the WorkflowPlugin to read from a form or table in the same topic...), though this would be by far the easiest way.

Thanks,
Andrew

With the TopicCreatePlugin you can create multiple topics at once, each based on a different template topic.
