I am using codeigniter I have an edit page which shows me all information of a vacancy. The (Vacancy) controller method to load this view looks like this, it makes sure all data is preloaded.
public function editVacancy($vacancyid)
{
$this->is_logged_in();
$this->load->model('vacancy/vacancies_model');
// Passing Variables
$data['title'] = 'Titletest';
$data['class'] = 'vacancy';
$orgadminuserid = $this->vacancies_model->getOrgAdminUserId($vacancyid);
if ((!is_null($orgadminuserid)) && ($this->auth_user_id == $orgadminuserid[0]->user_id)) {
$data['vacancyid'] = $vacancyid;
$data['vacancy'] = $this->vacancies_model->get($vacancyid);
$data['test'] = $this->session->flashdata('feedbackdata');
$partials = array('head' => '_master/header/head', 'navigation' => '_master/header/navigation_dashboard', 'content' => 'dashboard/vacancy/edit_vacancy', 'footer' => '_master/footer/footer');
$this->template->load('_master/master', $partials, $data);
}
}
In this view i have different forms for updating different sections. Every form submit goes to a different method in my 'Vacancy' controller.
public function saveGeneralInfo()
{
$this->is_logged_in();
$this->load->model('vacancy/vacancies_model');
$vacancyid = $this->input->post('vacancyid');
$vacancyUpdateData = $this->vacancies_model->get($vacancyid);
$result = $this->vacancies_model->update($vacancyid, $vacancyUpdateData);
if ($result) {
$feedbackdata = array(
'type' => 'alert-success',
'icon' => 'fa-check-circle',
'title' => 'Success!',
'text' => 'De algemene vacature gegevens zijn geupdate.'
);
$this->session->set_flashdata('feedbackdata', $feedbackdata);
redirect("dashboard/vacancy/editVacancy/" . $vacancyid);
}
}
}
Where I indicated in my code "//HERE ..." is where I would want the feedback message parameter to pass on to my 'main controller method' which loads the view with the prefilled data. (editVacancy).
Is there a clean way to do this?
EDIT:
I tried using flashdata, i updated the code to have the flashdata inserted.
However when i do a var_dump($test); in my view, it remains null.
EDIT 2: I noticed when i put my $_SESSION in a variable in my editVacancy controller method (which is being redirected to) and var_dump it in my view that this does not contain the ci_vars with the flashdata in.
