Hi!

I'm interested in using the RedirectBack function in a tipafriend form, so when a user fills the form and send it, he will come back automatically to the same page where there was, instead of loading a Thank You page and a link to come back.
The problem is that I can't find any way to know that the form was sent correctly, and thus inform the user of that. I only get a page reload, and the the user can think that the process was not done, and is a bit confusing.

Any idea would be appreciated. Thanks!

Im not sure if this is the correct way of doing this but worked for me:

I added this to my tipafriend form

<input type="hidden" name="RedirectBack" value="1" />

This works because in:

/kernel/content/tipafriend.php

..it is waiting for:

if ( $http->hasPostVariable( 'RedirectBack' ) && $http->postVariable( 'RedirectBack' ) == 1 )
        {
            $Module->redirectTo( '/content/view/full/' . $NodeID );
            return;
        }
