Newsletter templates and editions without titles

On LetterEdit.aspx it is possible to click "Save Current as Template Named:" with no text in the control. This results in a template with no name, that cannot then be amended or deleted because on LetterTemplates.aspx the hyperlink is on the template name.

Adding validation on this control would be useful, plus, where an existing title is empty, create a hyperlink on LetterTemplates.aspx with text something like "[No title] view/edit".

Related: some of my users have managed to create editions without titles/subject - I'm not sure how, as this field does have validation on LetterEdit.aspx - but we then get a similar problem: these cannot be edited or deleted on LetterDrafts.aspx as the link is on the text. The same solution as above would be helpful.

Re: Newsletter templates and editions without titles

Hi Crispin,

Thanks, this is now fixed in the source code repository so it will be fixed in the next release. The empty title on newsletter editions was reported and fixed previously but probably some blank ones were already created in your site before that was fixed.

In the meantime I suggest workaround it by updating those empty values in the database:

UPDATE mp_Letter
SET [Subject] = 'Untitled'
WHERE [Subject] IS NULL OR [Subject] = ''

UPDATE mp_LetterHtmlTemplate
SET [Title] = 'Untitled'
WHERE [Title] IS NULL OR [Title] = ''

Thanks,

Joe
