9.2 My User Settings

Forms

asked on November 21, 2014

In previous versions of Forms, a user could go into My User Settings to set their email address. According to the Help for 9.2, this has be done through the Web Administration Console. After upgrading, users who were previously set up in Forms no longer have email addresses assigned to them. Is this normal? Do we have to go to Web Administration Console and reset all user email addresses when upgrading to 9.2 Forms?

For Laserfiche Repository Named Users, you can set the Forms email address via attribute configuration in the Administration Console or from the "Account" page in Forms 9.2.

As for my experience using Forms 9.1.1 and upgrading to Forms 9.2, here's what happened:

Installed Forms 9.1.1 and configured it for a new database
I logged into Forms as a repository named user called "Test"
I went into "My User Settings" and configured an email address
At this time, what happens is that an email address got associated with the user in the cf_users table in the Forms database. Also, when viewing the user attributes for "Test" in the Laserfiche Administration Console, it automatically created a new attribute called [Forms]Email with the email address set
I upgraded to Forms 9.2.0 and the email address remained configured. The email address was still present in the cf_users table of the Forms database (after the database upgrade required for 9.2.0) and the user attribute remained as well

What version of Forms was the customer using previously, just before upgrading to 9.2.0?

Hi Alex,

Upon further review, the user's email was carried over and visible through the web admin console.

Thanks for your help,

Jen
