  • App_Config/Include/zzz/Sitecore.Support.67074.config
  • sitecore/admin/UpdateListRecipientsCount.aspx

Installation

For all Sitecore instances in the solution:

  1. Uninstall previous version of the patch (if installed).
  2. Make a backup of the files mentioned in Contents section and listed in the installation instruction (if any).
  3. Copy the contents of the Website folder from the archive to the Website folder of your Sitecore solution, overwrite existing files if any conflicts occur.

For CM instance in the solution:

  1. On a CM instance (only on one CM, if there are several of them) add the following to the "hooks" section in the "Sitecore.Forms.config" file: <hook type="Sitecore.Support.Form.Core.WffmListActionHook, Sitecore.Support.67074"/>.
  2. Navigate to the /sitecore/system/Modules/Web Forms for Marketers/Settings/Actions/Save Actions/Add Contact to Contact List item (in "master" database), check the Client action check-box field, save and publish the changes.
  3. Navigate to http://<Your_Host_Name>/sitecore/admin/UpdateListRecipientsCount.aspx to update contact lists.

Please take into account the following notes:

  1. Order of actions on a form is highly important, please make sure that identifying a contact is performed before adding the contact to a contact list.
  2. Steps #1 and #2 on the CM instance should be skipped if you are using standalone environment (not scalable).

Uninstallation

  1. Remove the files listed in the Contents section.
  2. Restore the original files from the backup made during installation.
