Hi

I have an APEX trigger that creates a record.

I want to send an email after the creation of that record.

I have set-up a workflow rule that responds to these newly created records, but this does not fire from the trigger. (it works if I manually create the record)

Is this an order of execution issue?

i.e. does it not submit the record created by the trigger until after the workflows rules have been executed?

Is there anyway to get this working without having to code the send email?

Many thanks

Hello

I'd like to gather customer feedback using a Sites.

I have a button on contact that generates an email with a link to the site.

The feedback is stored against a custom object. This is all working fine.

I need that custom object record to link back to the contact.

I can pass the contact ID to Site from with in the URL

http://cambridge.prelive.cs13.force.com/AcademicFeedback?ContactId=0032000000lv5LKAAY

I have coded an VF extension class that gets the ID 

I just can't figure out how/when to apply this id to the custom record. (or to the VF page)

I can't even get a text field to default!!!!

I guess the generic question is how do you default a value on a Sites VF page.

Hellllppp! :-)

public class FeedbackExt
{
   private ApexPages.StandardController stdCtrl;

   public Academic_Customer_Feedback__c controlledRecord;

   public FeedbackExt(ApexPages.StandardController std)
   {
      this.controlledRecord = (Academic_Customer_Feedback__c)std.getRecord();
     
      String idsParam = ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('ContactId');
      this.controlledRecord.Contact__c = idsParam; // this field is not defaulting!!
      this.controlledRecord.Module_Name__c = 'PLEASE DEFAULT'; // this field is not defaulting!!
     
      stdCtrl=std;
   }

   public PageReference save()
   {
 
      stdCtrl.save();
      return Page.thanks;
   }
}

Hi

I'm completely new to force.com Sites and VF 

This is my first attempt. I used easypage to generate the VF.

I'm in a prelive sandbox at present.

http://cambridge.prelive.cs13.force.com/AcademicFeedback/a1fW000000006RO

On clicking "Save" it displays the "Authorisation required" page!

It does create the feedback record fine, which is cool!

I'd like it to show a simple "Thanks for your feedback" message.

Any idea how you do this?
