setting: Joomla 3.1.5 extension: chronocontact (latest) ******************************************** Hi there,
I´ve made a really goodlooking form and when testing it on my backend it works wonderfully.
Problem: It doesn´t display in my article.
I´ve used this form: {chronocontact}myformname{/chronocontact} I´ve already stripped out the <p> ... </p> in my database.
I have also installed chronoforms v.4.0, when I put there {chronoforms}myformname{/chronoforms} the form displays correctly - but after trying very hard I couldn´t manage to get the form validated on submitting (which was easy with chronocontact).
So please: What do I have to do to make my form visible in my article?
"GreyHead": One of the multi-purose show content plugins might work with it though.

Hi Bob,
I had already read that you suggested a multi-purpose-plugin to someone else. I tried - and failed. No way to display the contact-form as described above.
The solution then was very easy:
There ist no need to display the chronocontact-form in an article when you just want to display the contact form. You can manage to "turn on" the form through a normal menu - you just set a link to chronoform there (like you would, otherwise, to an article) and put in THERE the name of your form.
I´d like to suggest that the developers write this "how-to" into a "readme".txt - might help some other people and save time I spent today when trying and trying and trying ;-)

As far as I know there is no plugin released for ChronoContact. One of the multi-purose show content plugins might work with it though.

If you'd like to buy me a coffee or two, thank you very much

Good idea, I've updated the ChronoForms FAQ and will try to remember to add the same to the ChronoContact one when it gets written.
