Form save not working in new 6.1.1 version

save form fields in ChronoForms after an update.

Overview

After updating to CF 6.1.1, the form designer failed to save new or modified fields due to a database error where a section was incorrectly set.
Update to CF version 6.1.2, which contains the fix for this saving issue.

Dear all,
I just updated to new 6.1.1 version. I'm trying to modify a form adding an hidden field and changing the new purple designer labels. But when I full-saved the form, the hidden field is not saved and it is removed from the form.
Now, I'm not able to save any other new field to the form: even is I add a new textfield, it is not saved.
Could you please check this issue?

Also, I'm trying to create a new form from scatch adding some fields. When I save, the message "Form saved successfully." is shown, but when I reopen the form, the view doesn't contain the fields I added.
Please, could you replicate this issue in your environment?
I'm using Joomla 3.9.5 and ChronoForm 6.1.1

Really strange: looking into database, fields I added are shown (please see attached txt file containing the export of my database record - now deleted)

But no component is shown in my view: please, have a lookForm save not working in new 6.1.1 version image 1

I have found the problem: the view field of the table "chronoengine_form6" contains:

"_section":"undefined\/undefined"


changing it to:

"_section":"load"


fix the designer.

Why section is set to "undefined"? Is it a bug?

Good catch. Thanks.
I am now able to limp along by manually updating the sql database until a fix is released.

Max,

The problem is a little more extensive than just the addition of new fields to a section.
There is a similar problem when moving existing fields into a new area, and also with the addition of new actions to a section.
