I have created a bunch of prevalue sources in contour 1.1 of type Umbraco documents. I have things like Age range, Event type, Hotel location. When the form renders on front end all is fine I see the node names of the documents which is what i want so far example for hotel location i have
City Centre
Beach
Resort
The issue i have is that when the form is submitted for the following items instead of seeing the node name i see node ids
Email that is sent out
In the backend view the submitted record
Exported records
Is there a way of using the node name instead of the id.
If you use this on single step form with dropdown it works (not tried other types yet) however on multistep form sometimes it works just on one drop down field and soemetimes it doesnt. I have a mix of dropdown and checkbox. I think issue is when you run in multi form setup. Also i am using standard renderform control just to rule out my mutli step hack i get same issue.
Ok have been able to reproduce, seems it's quite random.
Create multistep form with fields linked to prevalue sources, when I submit and check in the entries viewer most of them show the caption but some show the id

Hi Ismail,
What is the fieldtype the prevalue source is linked to, just tried it with a dropdown and that gives the name
Also works as expected with radiobuttonlist and checkboxlist

Tim,
Just tried checkbox on single step form and it works fine. Gotta be multistep.

Thinking about i guess when multi stepping things are saved to cookie? Could that be the issue ?

Nah nothing todo with cookies, found and fixed the issue, just going to test it now
If you download the lastest _update zip here: http://nightly.umbraco.org/Umbraco%20Contour/1.1.3%20WIP/
And simply replace the Umbraco.Forms.Core.dll it should fix the issue
