We are pleased to announce the release of the new ChronoForms V5, almost at the 7th anniversary of ChronoForms, the new version has more capabilities, easier interface and a much stronger code base, it can be installed with V4 on the same system, and is Joomla 2.5/3.x ready.
We have decided to release a new simple forms builder to meet all our users demands, the new extension interface is very simple and innovative, it does the main tasks of a contact script, and is using our new advanced PHP framework to achieve the best performance and stay platform independent.
In order to be able to run this new extension, your server should meet these requirements:
PHP5.3
PDO & PDO MySQL extensions enabled in PHP
Almost all servers today can meet these requirements, unless they are outdated.
Pay attention not to install this new extension with Chronoforms V3, it will overwrite the files since they are both using the same extension code name "com_chronocontact".
We are proud to announce the new release of Chronoforms for Joomla 3.0, it's available for free download on the "Downloads" page, please don't hesitate to let us know about any issues you may find.
We are proud to announce the release of ChronoConnectivity V4.0, the new version is a complete remake of the old one, almost all the code has been rewritten. The result is a stronger; more modular and easier to use data manager for all Joomla users. We hope that you will like it, and look forward to hear your comments on our forums.
ChronoConnectivity V4 requires Chronoforms V4 RC3.2 or later installed.
The main features of the new release are:
Multi Database tables support.
Admin area or frontend data listing support.
Support for all CRUD operations on 1 or more tables, plus supporting basic features like pagination, search, sorting, data filtering...etc.
Full users groups access permissions configuration.
Tasks Control support using the Chronoforms Events-Actions system*.
Auto or Custom data listing to save your time.
SEO url support with the basic Joomla SEF support.
*With the Task Control feature, you can control when will any CRUD action will be executed, for example:
You want the user to confirm something before deleting a record.
Send an email when a record is updated.
Doing any type of processing before running any of the CRUD operations is possible using the Chronoforms-ChronoConnectivity combination.
Please let us know your thoughts on our forums.
Getting started
