Hi every body,

The plugin get an Html file, uploaded from beckend view, extract some html tags and write it in a specific content/folder. Then it save a record in the plugin, in order to keep trace of the upload. Everiting is working fine. But I want to stop the saving item behaviour if the content/folder already exist.

For the folder writing and control loop I used the formBeforeSave() function inside the Controller:: Class. Inside the function I can stop the saving task, but a Flash success message is shown anyway. I understood that is a sort of redirect problem... but how to redirect or refresh sending a error message to the page?

I tried several Redirect:: class function but nothing changed.

Thank you all in advance.

Carmelo

How are you stopping the saving task? I was thinking you could stop the processing of the form all together by throwing an \ApplicationException('Not processing any further because folder exists');

Hi philipptempel,

thank you for you suggestion, you was right!!

I fixed using

throw new ValidationException(['my_field'=>'message'])

For who will face the same issue, or similar
