Submit button not submitting information

I made a new database collection (called jobs)> created a form > linked the fields to data in collection > then I added a button that submits the data , and the button wont submit the data

I’ve done this before, so I’m a bit confused.

Hi Anthony,

here are a few things to check when submitting:

  • Is the Dataset type Write or Read & Write?
  • If submit doesn’t work in Published Site only, are permissions set correctly?
  • Are there any database hooks that could prevent submit from successfully completing?

Another good place to check for any issues is the developer tools console.

In Chrome you can access it by pressing
Ctrl + Shift + J or Cmd + Opt + J (Mac)

In Firefox
Ctrl + Shift + J or Cmd + Opt + J (Mac)

Let me know if you were able to resolve the issue. And have fun Wix Coding. :slight_smile:

I fixed it! Thanks!

Hi Anthony,
I’m having the same problem, what did you do to fix it?

Hi Andrew,

Travel to your database collection > Hit the gear icon, next to the name, and make sure you set it to this:
Form input: Anyone can submit data to this location

Thanks Anthony, all fixed!

Hi,
Have you followed all the steps in the above comments? if you did please describe the use case and share a link to your editor so we can inspect.

Hey I am also having issues with my submit button. Yes, I did try the steps above but i still cannot get it to work,


As you can see my submit button is greyed out (this is on the actual website).
When I pull it up on preview the submit button is not greyed out, though it still will not let me submit, it will not give me the success or error confirmation once I click submit.

I fixed the issue
The first thing I had to do was go to edit my database and add a row for each text box I had on my form


Than I had to assign each text box to a column


The second issue I was having is, the data set mode was set to read & right, which is wrong.
It was supposed to be on write only


I hope this helps anyone with the same issue!

I have been trying to get my submit button to work for days. I have tried everything I have read and can think of. When I am in preview mode and do a test upload I receive this message ’ save operation failed: DatasetError: Operation cancelled by user code. [object Object]'. I am at a complete loss and need this feature working STAT! Any help is greatly appreciated. (I’ve included screenshots of all setting as well)

Don’t know why my question was nestled between the images I uploaded but here it is easier to see. Screenshots above.
