Will CF 6.1 stop working correctly if I change to PHP 8.0 and Joomla 4.0?

pgrnycomdir 05 Feb, 2022

I presently have many forms on the front end and members only area of a site. The only thing I do is #1-save all data to a table within the Joomla databases, #2-send the information to a number of users and #3-confirm the information was sent to the originator of the form information.

I do reports after the fact by downloading the data tables information.

I am NOT a programmer and Chronoforms has been used by our organization since version 4.0.

My questions:

#1-will these forms stop working if I upgrade to PHP 8.0 and Joomla 4.0?

#2-can I use both Chronoforms 6 and Chronoforms 7 on a live site at the same time until I am able to convert all forms to version 7???

Thank you much for your help.

Hi

1 - No, CF6 doesn't work with Joomla4, whatever PHP version. May be Joomla 3 +PHP8, but you have to rewrite some segments codes.

2 - You can run CF6+CF7 together only on Joomla3 + PHP7. But you have to rewrite all your Forms.

Bye
