Field Events demo does not work (or I messed up)

How to fix field events not working in ChronoForms.

Overview

The issue occurs when field events, such as show/hide actions on dropdown selections, do not trigger as expected, often due to installation or configuration conflicts.
First, try reinstalling CF6 by backing up forms, uninstalling, clearing the Joomla cache, and reinstalling. If issues persist, ensure each checkbox group is placed in a dedicated container and reference these containers (e.g., #box1) in the dropdown event settings.

Hello,

I am a newbie in CF6 (and Joomla in general), so forgive me if I am asking stupid things🙂

I have a test system with Joomla 3.9.18 and ChronoForms6 6.1.4 installed and I am trying to understand how field events work.
I have installed the demo form "Field events and features" in Classic v6 designer mode.
The demo has the following events on the select1 dropdown:

When running the demo form however, no matter what the user selects on the select1 dropdown, the checkboxes1 or checkboxes2 options do the get changed (i.e hide them); the user can freely check every option and submit them. According the the events, when the user un-selects the computer dropdown option (on select1), the checkboxes2 item should hide.

Am I doing something wrong or I do not understand how field events work?
Many thanks in advance.

please start with a single event, does it work or not ?

Also did you try that on the new v7 ?

I backed-up my CF6 forms, uninstalled CF6, cleared Joomla cache, reinstalled CF6, restored my forms and now events work.
