How to trigger submit from parent?

.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}

I would like to call the submit method of the child component. Therefore I use the ref prop.
But it looks like I just get a WithContext object.

So how to call TodoForm > submit inside App > submitForm.

Here is a running example: https://codesandbox.io/s/92nm15pnqr

from App.js pass onSubmit={this.submitForm} and from TodoForm in Formik onSubmit add this.props.onSubmit()

The submit button is outside of the TodoForm. Thus, submit should be triggered outside of the TodoForm.Therefore onSubmit prop for TodoForm will not help.

why do you put submit button outside?

For example bootstrap modal where submit button is in the modal footer and the form itself is in the modal body.

Because you wrap your TodoForm component in withNamespaces HOC, getting the reference to your TodoForm is not as easy as calling ref={..}, since that returns reference to the HOC. To get the reference to your component, you have to leverage the innerRef parameter, when creating the HOC (see docs)

const TodoFormTranslated = withNamespaces("", {

  innerRef: (ref) => VARIABLE_WHICH_WILL_NOW_CONTAIN_REF_TO_YOUR_EL = ref

})(TodoForm);

fast but working solution to your problem would look something like this: https://codesandbox.io/s/n55yvw1o2m

Maybe you don't want variables outside of your class, so I'll leave that to you in which way do you want to handle this. You can get inspiration for example from this post.
