menu visibility from internal link

How to display site menus when accessing a CF form via direct URL.

Overview

The issue occurs because menu modules are configured to appear only on specific pages, not on the default pages where direct form links load.
Configure the menu modules to display on default pages, or create a dedicated CF menu item and append parameters to its URL.

Hi Bob,
I know that you told me this before - explained how you would make a link from within a form or connection appear with the menu bars.

If I add a link directly to the form or connection
eg www.xxxx.yyy.zz/index.php/component/chronoforms5/?view=form&chronoform=bookingCourseOnLine&memberNumber=1695

then while the form appears OK none of the menus appear.

I have done that on a site before but can't for the life of me remember how I did it. I suspect part of the complication is that I have two templates for different accounts.

Can you recall and remind me?????😶

Regards

Hi Nick,

The simplest solution is to set up the Menu Modules so that they appear on the default pages and not only on selected ones.

I guess that you could also use a ChronoForms Menu item here e,g,booking-course-online and append the member ID something like this www.xxxx.yyy.zz/booking-course-online?memberNumber=1695
