re: having both "Has default form" and "Creates pages with form"
I don't know to what degree you mean "shouldn't." If you're speaking of if the
code supports this, it probably currently doesn't; it's a hack I added by
commenting out one "return false" in SemanticForms\includes\SF_LinkUtils.php,
in the setBrokenLink functions:
static function setBrokenLink( $linker, $target, $options, $text, &$attribs,
&$ret ) {
if ( in_array( 'broken', $options ) ) {
if ( self::createLinkedPage( $target ) ) {
// commented out by donundeen
//return true;
}
$link = self::formEditLink( $target );
if ( $link != '' ) {
$attribs['href'] = $link;
}
}
return true;
}
I suppose it's possible some of my tweaks are causing some of my bugs, but if
other people are having similar problems, it'll at least give me an idea of
where to look for solutions.
But in the other terms of "shouldn't," as in "there's no good reason to do
that," I'd have to disagree. "Creates pages with form" adds rows to runjobs,
so
the page will get created at some point in the future, when that job runs.
"Uses
default form" means that page will get created when someone clicks that link,
ie, right when they need it. I don't see any way that those two things should
be
mutually exclusive. The alternative is either:
1. Only use "Creates" : means while we're waiting for runJobs to do it's thing,
people will have red links they can't do anything about. Worse, clicking on
that
will lead to a blank page, which they may then fill out. Meaning when runjobs
happens, that page won't get created correctly.
2. Only use "default form" : means that someone will have to go manually and
click all those red links to create the pages. That's not a viable option
either.
So I don't see why you wouldn't support both properties working. Especially
since it seems to involve commenting out one "return false" in the code.

Hi,
I don't know how much I can help you, since you're using a modified version of
an older version of SF. Hopefully one of the SMW+ people can assist here. I do
have one question, though: why do you have both "Has default form" and "Creates
pages with form" set for the same property? That shouldn't be done, as far as I
know.
