Thanks! We're currently on 2.7.1, looking to upgrade to 2.8 in the near future. Without adding a file such as the one given in my earlier message, I get a 500 error with "ActionView::Template::Error (Missing partial jobs/report_partials/_string with {:locale=>[:en],

Hmmm. I will double check, but this is running in production over here right now, so I’m wondering if the reporting functionality has changed since I looked at it. What version of ASpace are you targeting?

<span style="font-size:12.0pt; color:black">Thank you for this link, it's really helpful. I've installed your reports plugin on a dev system and am now hitting the same problem I'm having with my report - how to get the text box to show up on the report screen
(i.e. what to put in the jobs/report_partials/_string partial). I tried just using the following line:<br>
<br>
</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Courier New"; color:black"><% form.textfield name, nil, :class => 'text-field form-control' %></span><span style="font-size:12.0pt; color:black"><br>
<br>
But this leads to the attached being displayed instead of a text box! Might you be able to advise on how you were able to configure String parameter entry? It's not part of this plugin as far as I can see.</span></p>

Hi,<br>
<br>
We have a plugin we wrote with some custom SQL reports – this one uses a string parameter for an EADID or list of EADIDs -

This is currently installed in production and working; it should be fine to install it and test locally or on a QA system, if you want to try it out in a live system.<span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"></span></p>

I see from e.g. <a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/75000415aa5ee60411c6caf012042af4fc157d00/frontend/app/views/jobs/_form.html.erb*L121__;Iw!!Dq0X2DkFhyF93HkjWTBQKhk!GX75QheNm0-XxIApINdOyeac54bS2ZjNyPlm_nxqTYFfTBABH9vDI0OxgolnoLIKYgcArjCl$">https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/75000415aa5ee60411c6caf012042af4fc157d00/frontend/app/views/jobs/_form.html.erb#L121</a>
