OK I have opted to rebuild all the forms on this website using V6. We have a lot of forms that were imported from HTML forms and feel that V6 is the way to go.
However, when creating a "generic" request for quote form (we are rebuilding a dozen forms for products) and standard contact form, I have found that they are not submitting on the front end. They work perfectly on the back end, but not the front.
So I did the research and found a few posts that suggest:
1) Ticking NO for Relative URLs - The problem here is that I do not see this option anywhere in V6
2) May be a cache issue if you see "form=submit": in the URL after submitting - which I do see. But the Gantry template used has cache turned off
3) What I ended up doing is creating menu items directly to the ChronoForms form as opposed to pulling them into articles with the plugin. If we have to go this route then I guess we will. But I would rather style the page in the article and use the plugin for the form. Otherwise the plugin is of no use.
Any thoughts?

Hi jjspelman,
First, does the form work when you use the "open" link in the forms manager ?
If it doe then something on your website is causing the issue, maybe cache or SEF, the alternative to disable relative url in v6 is to use this shortcode in the "url" field in the "Display section":
Best regards,
