ProcessPageEdit::postNotSubmitted()

Called for a POST request that was not recognized as a valid form submission

Nothing is saved in this case. The most likely cause is that PHP’s max_input_vars setting was exceeded, since the CSRF token and the form landmark input are the last inputs in the form, and thus the first ones dropped when PHP truncates the POST variables. The page id is near the beginning of the form and survives, which is why the request still appears to be a page edit POST. Without this notice the editor simply re-renders and looks like a save that quietly lost its changes.

The logged token is ok when the current session's token was posted, stale when a token was posted under a name the session no longer recognizes (i.e. the session was reset by a login or forceLogin() after the form was rendered), or missing.

This protected method is for hooks to monitor and it is likely not intended to be called directly.

Available since version 3.0.272.

Internal usage

$processPageEdit->postNotSubmitted();

Hooking ProcessPageEdit::postNotSubmitted()

You can add your own hook events that are executed either before or after the ProcessPageEdit::postNotSubmitted() method is executed. Examples of both are included below. A good place for hook code such as this is in your /site/ready.php file.

Hooking before

The 'before' hooks are called immediately before each ProcessPageEdit::postNotSubmitted() method call is executed. This type of hook is especially useful for modifying arguments before they are sent to the method.

$this->addHookBefore('ProcessPageEdit::postNotSubmitted', function(HookEvent $event) {
  // Get the object the event occurred on, if needed
  $ProcessPageEdit = $event->object;

  /* Your code here, perhaps modifying arguments */

  // Populate back arguments (if you have modified them)
});

Hooking after

The 'after' hooks are called immediately after each ProcessPageEdit::postNotSubmitted() method call is executed. This type of hook is especially useful for modifying the value that was returned by the method call.

$this->addHookAfter('ProcessPageEdit::postNotSubmitted', function(HookEvent $event) {
  // Get the object the event occurred on, if needed
  $ProcessPageEdit = $event->object;

  // An 'after' hook can retrieve and/or modify the return value
  $return = $event->return;

  /* Your code here, perhaps modifying the return value */

  // Populate back return value, if you have modified it
  $event->return = $return;
});
