Chronoforms V5 does not work with Joomla 3.4.5

Nielsterp 21 Nov, 2015
Hi,

I'm updating my website from Joomla 2.x to Joomla 3.4.5. My old site has Chronoforms 4 installed, I have made a backup of the form in question.

Then I installed the latest Joomla, 3.4.5, I installed Chronoforms V5 (and I had a problem with a table that was not created, thank you for the help with that), imported my form (went smooth). Module is activated, and everything seems to be fine.

BUT the form will not produce any output. I have tried to put it in an article, like this: {chronoforms5}formname{/chronoforms5} - that only produces the line "Powered by ChronoForms - ChronoEngine.com" but no form.

I have also tried to create a menu item of type Chronoforms - that doesn't produce any output at all.

Hope you can help me with this too !

Hi Nielsterp,

I suggest that you install ChronoForms v4 and restore your form in that. The two versions can be installed side by side.

The problem is that there is no complete way to restore a CFv4 form into CFv5 :-( The Restore function only imports the form HTML and not any of the supporting actions. You can add the necessary actions but then the HTML will not be in the CFv5 layout and styling.

Thank you, Chronoforms 4 works perfectly on my site now !
The reason I had started with V5 was, that it was the latest, nothing else.

But now everything works as it should - thatk you very much !
