What is the simplest way to find the name of a loaded form?

Nick

HI Nick,

Use a Custom code option to dump $this and look through the results. In CFv5 it was $form->form['Form']['title'] there will be a CFv6 equivalent.

Hi Bob

I have tried that - and will check again but so far having trouble finding it. I had wondered if there was a short code somewhere.

Thanks

Nick

Hi Nick,

I dumped $this for the basic-contact form - all 4915 lines . . . and . . . try {data:chronoform} that seems to work in my test in the form Load page.

Bob

I looked and looked for that Bob. Will try it and see. 😶

Nope. Not there. I think that somehow the problem is related to calling a CF6 form from a CC6 connection using

{chronoform:edConvenerForm}

My dump of $this and $this->data from within the CF6 form look likes like this:

    [G2\A\E\Chronofc\H\Parser object] (unknown name) Tooltip
        Properties
            [G2\L\View object] View
            [array] connections = (empty)
            [array] data
            [array] debug
            [array] fevents
            [array] functions
            [array] locales = (empty)
            [array] messages = (empty)
            [string] pattern = "/{(event|view|function|fn|section|connection|chronoform|var|data|date|user|value|val|session|redirect|page|path|error|success|info|warning|stop|end|la..." (Length = 214)
            [string] pattern2 = "/\((var|data|date|user|value|val|session|lang|language|l|uuid|rand|ip)([\/|\.][^:]+)?:([^}]*?)\)/i"
            [boolean] stopped = FALSE
            [array] vars
            [array] views
            [integer] viewslimit = 0
        Methods
    [array] (unknown name) Tooltip
        [string] Itemid = "639"
        [string] MorP = "M"
        [string] comprofilerid = "1466"
        [string] conn = "ManageConveners"
        [string] event = "edit"
        [string] option = "com_chronoconnectivity6"
        [string] view = "connection"

No reference to the form there. I will try using some other connection than {chronoform:edConvenerForm}
and see if that helps.

Hi Nick,

Can you find it using the debugger ?

Best regards,

Hi Max

No - though the form is loaded as you can see. And all of the tables are read OK in the form.

I can give you access if you need to of course.

Further to that, Max, if I replace that {chronoform:edConvenerForm} with a function using redirect all works fine. I can see the form information with debug.

redirectTo("?option=com_chronoforms6&chronoform=edConvenerForm&comprofilerid=2626&MorP=M");

And one other thing that I hadn't mentioned that may or may not be relevant. I couldn't get [Submit] to work using that {chronoform:edConvenerForm} approach. Nothing I put into the Submit event displayed. I didn't investigate further since I was switching to the redirect option. Reworks fine,
Nick

Hi Nick,

I will check this further, glad you have it working now!

The next Connectivity update comes with the Chronoforms basic fields for better forms support.

Best regards,
Max
