Description
I have a few content types that show up in the pull down menu displayed at mysite.com/workspace. When one is selected and the add new item button is clicked, the user is directed to the create content screen, listing the available content types they can create. Then the user has to select the same content type again they just selected. Is it possible to just have the user directed right to that content types data entry form, when they make the selection the first time? I think this would simplify the process a bit for users. Thanks. (using 6.x-1.3)

#1
Fixed in the dev version
#2
That's great. Here's what I did... I unchecked the Workspace module and clicked Save Configuration, uploaded the new Workspace dev folder (6.x-1.x-dev) and replaced the Workspace folder (6.x-1.3) that was there. I went and checked the new dev Workspace module and clicked Save Configuration. Then I logged in as a user and went to the workspace area, selected one of the content types and clicked add new item. Unfortunately it didn't open that content type's add screen so I can just start entering data. I was taken to the Create content list, just as originally explained. Am I missing something? Thank you.

Actually the fix is also in 1.3
I have tested them both and they are working for me, so I don't know where the problem lies.
Perhaps a cache somewhere needs clearing.
#4
That sure is strange. I have tried clearing the cache on a few occasion with no change. I am still having this problem. Is anyone else have this issue as well? Thanks.
#5
This should be fixed in the latest dev release. Please report back if problem persists.
