Issue Summary

prepopulate [body_filter][body] not working for default node type in D6

title and url work great, but &edit[body_filter][body] (or just [body]) do not work. Can't get anything to come up in the body field at all.

Anyone else have this problem? Any clues would be greatly appreciated.

#1

I am having this same issue on 6.4 with a module of my own design. It would be very helpful to know how to fix this, if it has been determined.

#2

This isn't a problem with prepopulate, to set the body use edit[body_field][body].
I don't know when this was changed, but this works as of drupal 6.5

Hi,

I'm trying to prepopulate to define the message in contact module form with this :
?edit[message]=Hello

But it doesn't seem to work...Any ideas??

Thanks

As far as I'm aware, Prepopulate for all forms isn't in the drupal 6 version yet, and therefore Prepopulate only works for node type forms in drupal 6.

#7

hm, well actually all forms is in D6 now. but that is not to say that it works on *all* forms. we know that there are issues with the comment forms for example. either way this should be a new issue and not hijack a different, fixed issue.

I am reopening this after spending an hour hunting for body prepopulating solution.

The answer is there, as usual, but it is very much hidden.

The documentation page at http://drupal.org/node/228167 still mentions edit[body_filter][body] but the comment underneath (http://drupal.org/node/228167#comment-1184706) helpfully says we should use edit[body_field][body] instead.

I confirm that the latter works in 6.x-2.x-dev and also in 6.x-1.1.

I am not fixing the documentation myself as I am not sure whether edit[body_field][body] works only since a particular Drupal version, or whether it works in all D5 and D6 versions. Could somebody who knows the answer comment here. Thanks.

please add the [body_field] example to the USAGE.TXT file and the handbook. ;-)
