Hi I have used an event receiver attached to a list, which when an item is created it creates a sub site. Now if I create an OOTB workflow through SharePoint designer that runs on creation that doesn't run unless I manually start it.
I've read this post
stack exchange which says that I need to specify the order, can anybody explain how I add that to the code?
Is there another way of doing this so that I don't have to specify each workflow? otherwise every time a user adds a new workflow I will need to edit this event receiver and republish?
here's the code I'm using:
public override void ItemAdding(SPItemEventProperties properties)
{
base.ItemAdding(properties);
// Get the web where the event was raised
SPWeb spCurrentSite = properties.OpenWeb();
//Get the name of the list where the event was raised
String curListName = properties.ListTitle;
//If the list is our list named SubSites the create a new subsite directly below the current site
if (curListName == "SubSites")
{
//Get the SPListItem object that raised the event
SPListItem curItem = properties.ListItem;
//Get the Title field from this item. This will be the name of our new subsite
String curItemSiteName = properties.AfterProperties["Title"].ToString();
//Get the Description field from this item. This will be the description for our new subsite
string curItemDescription = properties.AfterProperties["Description"].ToString();
//Update the SiteUrl field of the item, this is the URL of our new subsite
properties.AfterProperties["SiteUrl"] = spCurrentSite.Url + "/" + curItemSiteName;
//Create the subsite based on the template from the Solution Gallery
SPWeb newSite = spCurrentSite.Webs.Add(curItemSiteName, curItemSiteName, curItemDescription, Convert.ToUInt16(1033), "{8FCAD92C-EF01-4127-A0B6-23008C67BA26}#1TestProject",
false, false);
//Set the new subsite to inherit it's top navigation from the parent site, Usefalse if you do not want this.
newSite.Navigation.UseShared = true;
newSite.Close();
}
}
