Hi Bob,
I have to import 27 CF4 forms into CF5. The backup and restore completes successfully with the exception that none of the forms setup information is coming through to CF5.
I'm attaching one of the CF4 backups (I modified it slightly removing client identifiable info like email address, name, etc) for you to review.
Any assistance is GREATLY appreciated so I don't have to redo the setup for all 27 forms.
Thanks!
Jose

Hi Jose,
As you found there is no automatic upgrade from CFv4 to CFv5 (except to copy over the old Form HTML).
CFv4 runs OK on Joomla! 3.5.1 so the simplest solution is to stay with that as long as possible,
Otherwise I recommend that you rebuild the forms in CFv5. If you have CFv5 and CFv4 open in two browser windows much of the specific content - labels, names, ids, email details, etc can be copied and pasted over from the CFv4 form to a new form in CFv5. It's a bit tedious but not too bad.
