Up until a few days ago, I was utilizing the code below to hide the Microsoft ribbon and left Nav on my Nintex Forms.  Apparently Microsoft made a change to the ribbon and now the ribbon code doesn't work (hiding of left Nav still works).  Does anyone have any ideas as to what the new code is?  I am using on prem SharePoint 2013 and Nintex 2013.     Thanks in advance.   // Hide the form ribbon NWF$("#s4-ribbonrow").hide(); // Hide the left navigation NWF$("#sideNavBox").hide(); //NWF$("#contentBox").css({"margin-left":"0px"});

Is there a way I can archive above.  TIA

We have a SharePoint on-prem site which was one of the most stable applications. Since last couple of months, a workflow is not behaving properly. It should ideally start on item creation - sometimes it starts, sometimes it does not. Someone has to then manually start the workflow. Relevant details: 1. We are using Nintex Workflow 2013 (3.1.5.0) version 2. The workflow has conditional start. 3. The NintexWFHistory list had 375,000 items in it so we created a new history list and re-published the workflow. We have also tried creating a new small workflow if it triggers on item creation - it did.    Please let me know if there any way to stop this. Any kind of suggestions are welcome.

Hi,I have a form I am creating with about 40 choice fields that I am rendering as buttons.  I would like the buttons to stand out more and would like to change the default from white to maybe orange.Is there an easy way to set this globally on the form?

QuestionIs it possible to remove Nintex Mobile App categories from the a Farm Admin or Site Level? Answer No, the Form Categories must be removed from within the Nintex Form iteself, under Nintex Forms Designer>Settings>Nintex Mobile Settings>Category 

Have a workflow against a SP list using set items permission. The workflow function is working however cannot be edited to make any changes to the function. Have tried to disable the function and add a new set items permission function to the workflow however it throws the same error as detailed above. Please assist, thanks!

I have a list using Nintex Forms in which I added custom JavaScript to apply today's date to a few date fields when a lookup selector chooses specific status values. For some reason, the script has stopped working. Nothing changed in the code, but nothing happens to any of the date fields when the status changes, no matter which one the user changes to. The only thing I can think of that has happened between then and now is an update to the latest version of forms.   This is the code for the form that was working previously and now is not. Does anyone know of any issues post the latest updates? NWF$(document).ready(function() NWF$('#'+jsRequestStatus).change(function() { fnSetDates(); }); }); function fnSetDates() { var dropdownvalue = NWF$('#'+jsRequestStatus).val(); var dateCompleted= NWF$('#'+jsDateCompleted).val(); switch(dropdownvalue) { case '1;#Submitted': NWF$('#' + jsDateCompleted).val(''); NWF$('#' + jsDateAccepted).val(''); NWF$('#' + jsDateNotified).val('');

I want user to update one field.  If it is empty, continue to send reminders. Stop the task workflow, when that field is populated.   Thank you.

I am creating a "lookup" form where users enter an acronym and the form outputs the definition. Lookup function works fine if the user enters an exact match. Is there a better function that outputs a "near miss", or returns all values that begin with the first "x" number of letters from the data a user enters? (I am new at this)

Hello everyone,   we recently updated our SharePoint 2016 on-premise Farm from: CU Update: August 2018 to June 2020 Nintex Workflow: 4.3.0.10 to 4.5.2.0 Nintex Forms: 4.3.0.11 to 4.5.2.0   Since this updgrade, we can't edit any forms using the content type "Schedule and Reservations". Before the upgrade, this was possible. " Error - Cannot use Nintex Forms for content type : Schedule and Reservations"   What we checked: - The content type setting "Read only" is set to "No" in our CT-Hub and has not be changed. - In the sites, where the content type is used, we changed the settings from "Yes" to "No".   - unfortunately this makes no difference.   Forms of Calenders, using the content type "Event" can be edited as normal. Do you know what causes this issue?

I am working with a SharePoint 2013 list. I have a simple workflow that updates the Status field based on the Due Date field and the current date. I need the workflow to execute when an item is added or edited, and once a day on all items. What I have determined so far:   A list workflow will fire manually, as well as when an item is added or updated. But I can't schedule it. A site workflow can be scheduled to fire daily quite easily, but it won't fire when an item is added or updated. A list workflow can launch the site workflow (when an item is added or updated), but then the site workflow will cause the list workflow to fire each time an item is updated.   I suspect there is a way to tell the list workflow not to fire when the site workflow is updating an item, but I am not sure how that works. Or is there a simpler way to achieve my goal here?

I'm creating a form and I have a field where users can select more than 1 option. I would like panels that's connected to those options to appear on my form. For example, if user selects option A, C, F, and G. Then, panels for A, C, F, and G will appear on the form. I tried using the rule FIELDNAME!="A" But, that only works if ONLY 'A' is selected -- otherwise it will hide the panel if I select multiple boxes.

Afternoon all. I'm coming back to Nintex after a few years using Flow. I'm using OnPrem Nintex and SP 2016 and need to produce a Word letter from the input from a Nintex form and send it via a Workflow. Has anyone had this requirement before? The Word letter is the element I've never tackled before so any advice gratefully received.    Thanks

Hi    i am new to nintex so please bear with me 🙂   I have a sharepoint list which has a 'choice' field detailing all business areas. I then have a second 'look-up' field which pulls through the email addresses to associated to the business areas. So when an item is created and a business area is chosen, the relevant email address get attributed to the item. I am looking to apply a workflow that sends a notification email to the relevant business email address when the item is saved. Does anyone know if this is possible?   thanks in advance.

Symptoms How to disable SmartAction functionality. Diagnoses Possible via config modification. Resolution You can edit the "Program Files (x86)K2 blackpearlHost ServerBinK2HostServer.exe.config" on your K2 server, changing ' enableListeners="false"' in , and restart the K2 blackpearl service.This will disable the SmartAction listener on the server. Note that this will strip out SmartAction content from the default task notification, but will not alter a user-customized notification. 

Anyone know how to fix this error for the "Query excel services" action error:- Retrieved cell value is incompatible with the selected variable.   The Workflow run fine for one day then this error was received the next day.   This is in Nintex 2016. I have created the same wf in Nintex 2010 which works fine.

When we have a validation field inside repeating section,if we delete row and try to submit ,we wont able to validate other rows of repeating section which contains validation field.   Sol:That is because PageValidator of the deleted row of the page is not removed,so on submit ,javascript of Nintex tries to find field which is already deleted and end in javascript error. So we need to add below javascript in "Custom Script" of Nintex.   NWF.FormFiller.Events.RegisterRepeaterRowDeleting(function     (thisRow) {     thisRow.find(".nf-validator-error").each(function (index,         validator) {         if (Page_Validators.indexOf(validator) > -1) {             Page_Validators.splice(Page_Validators.indexOf(validator), 1);         }     }); });

Hi, I am new to SharePoint development. We have a requirement that needs a form with a button to open a pop-up. The pop-up window must display the document library from which a user can choose documents and attach them to the form, just like how the 'Attachments' button works for local files. I would like to know if this can be achieved using JavaScript. We are using SharePoint 2013 on-prem.   Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I am in the Classic Designer of Nintex (unfortunately). Trying to do something simple, I should be able to handle this through Rules.  It would be very simple to address in the new Responsive Designer, but I am in Classic mode.   I have an open text field "Incident#"   When something is input in that field, I want 2 fields to auto-populate: "Status" is a picklist field and should change to "Submitted" "Assigned" is a peoplepicker and should change to the name of the person that input the Incident#.   How can I do this without using JS. Any help would be appreciated!  

HI,   I have added a calculated value field to generate ID for every new record to be generated. After selecting the right setting i am still getting the error of ID is undefined when ever I view the form. Below is the screenshot of the error. Kindly assist in the same.    

Hi there,           We have enabled nintex forms and workflow on a SharePoint 2019 onpremise environment. When we create/attach a nintex form to a modern list and click new item the list looks like has turned into Classic View (instead of modern view). Is there a nintex administration setting we are missing or some template that we need to modify ?   screenshots are attached    Thanks, Rakesh

We currently use a Nintex workflow start form in a list to create items in related child list. This requires the user to create items one at a time. I was able to prototype a simple cart that pulls in items from a catalog (lookup field) and adds them to a repeating section, but ran into issues when using variables to either parse a data field or to calculate and display an extended cost.   One calculation parses the unit cost from the item descriptor and displays it on the form. The second calculates the extended cost using that unit cost value and a user entered quantity and displays the result on the form.   Since the variables are re-used for each row, I am getting inconsistent behavior and unpredictable results ($0 saved with the item).  Is there a way around this, such as creating variables specific to each row, or somehow capturing the calculations in a more static way as items are added to the repeating section?  The alternative would be to ignore the calculations until post pro

We have a number of SharePoint workflows enabled for LazyApproval, where users approve tasks by replying to the email notifications they receive. The problem is that this shows in the "All Approver Comments" log in the format   (User Name) LazyApproval by user.name@domain.com   Approved and understandably many of them do not appreciate the implications of the phrase LazyApproval. Is there any way to change the title "LazyApproval" to something less pejorative, like "EmailApproval" or "RemoteApproval"? These workflows are frequently used at the GM and Exec level so the current situation is really not optimal.      

I am experiencing a strange issue that appears to be intermittent.  I have a SharePoint list that handles requests.  There are various workflows that update the progress and inform the requestor.  For the large majority of cases, this works fine.  Occasionally (and there is not a pattern that I can discern), a list item will start to ignore the starting conditions of a workflow.  This is what ends up happening:   - Several workflows (but not all of them) will start to ignore the their starting conditions, and thus will start when the item is modified. - 5 workflows will start, and the fields in the item will be updated. - Since fields in the item have been modified, the workflows will start again. - This process repeats until all workflows are manually stopped.   The starting conditions for the workflows seem straightforward.  I check to see if the value of a specific field has changed.  Even after changing the condition so that it can never be met, the workflow still starts.   Has any
