Import forms from Chronoforms V4 to V5

tenbob 17 Sep, 2016
Hi. I just installed Chronoforms V5 alongside V4. But I can't see any of my existing forms in V5. There's just an empty page. Is this expected behaviour?

Can I use forms created in V4 in the new V5? And, if so, how do I import them?

Thanks, Bob

Hi Bob,

That is correct,

You can export the forms from CFv4 and reimport them into CFv5 using the 'Experimental' importer but I suggest that you don't use that as you only get the form HTML imported.

You can run the two side by side and add new forms in CFv5 when you need them, and re-create CFv4 forms in CFv5 when they need to be modified, or it is a quiet rainy afternoon.

Thanks for the explanation. I will stick with V4 for now.

It would be helpful to add this info to the product description / release notes to avoid further confusion.

Kind regards, Bob
