Hi,
my site http://hilkerscleaners.com/ runs two chrono-forms. I was hacked and my mail server fills with spam email.
I am trying to find the hack and in the process eliminate the working components.
So is there a way to update from version 4 to 5?
And how can I make sure chrono-forms are secure?
Thanks,
John
Hey Bob,
Thanks for the quick reply. I will check out the FAQ.
With regard to V5, can I download my existing forms and just upload them to the new version 5? Or will I need to create new forms?
John
Hi John,
You can back up the forms in CFv4 and Restore them in CFv5 but all you get is the Form HTML and it isn't structured in the same way as CFv5 HTML. If they are fairly simple I'd suggest re-building, if they are complex, then stay with CFv4 pro tem.

Bob,
Here is a link to my forms http://hilkerscleaners.com/index.php/open-an-account
Would you say they are simple or complex - essentially can I load them into V5?
Also the sanitizer FAQ might be a little too technical for me. I checked the PHP HTML purifier page but the Joomla plugins were missing or out of date.

Hi Bob,
Give it a try now - I had Admin Tools engaged.

Hi John,
No change from here. If it's simpler please take a Form Backup using the icon in the Forms Manager and post it here and I'll take a closer look.

Hi John,
I'd re-build - not a big job, and you can use Multi-Field elements to replace some of the custom code.
Here's a quick version as a starter.
