Hi,
I have created a webform called “Event Registration”.

I also created a content type “Event” with a webform field referencing the “Event Registration” webform.

Then I created some "Event" nodes and submitted some submissions. The webform results was tracking the “submitted to” very well.

I created a views page “Latest Events” that lists all the events (with event title field and the webform field).

The problem is:
when I use the views page to submit an “Event Registration” webform, the form is submitting, but when I check the webform submission “webform/manage/event_registeration/results/submissions” the “SUBMITTED TO” section is blank.

Also when I check Data (YAML) of the result, I found those also blank (entity_type: '' , entity_id: '') whereas the other submissions from normal nodes (The Event content type nodes) display “SUBMITTED TO” data properly (entity_type: node , entity_id: '113').

Another issue that I think it might be related to the previous one:

the webforms in views page (the previous page) do not receive [webform_submission:] tokens (like [webform_submission:node:nid], '[webform_submission:source-entity]', tec …) as default value for webform elements.

I hope I could make this clear.
Thanks for your help.

This is very difficult edge case.

A webform looks at the current page for the source entity. A View can't be a source entity.

You could try to...

  • Write an entity alter hook and populate the source entity
  • Link to the event node
  • Link to the form and pass source_entity_type and source_entity_id as URL parameters.

I will look into passing the source entity to the submission form for the webform field.

I might be able to fix this but I am not promising anything.
