at the moment there is no v6 to v7 importer but one is scheduled for a future release, if you can not wait then rebuild the required forms in v7

Hello Max,

Any idea of the release date for v6 to v7 importer ?

Thank you

No... at the moment!

Any updates? Is there ANY way to migrate forms from CF6 to CF7 WITHOUT manually re-building it?

Hi

Not at this time. And I think… never!

This is on the todo list and hopefully will be ready sometime soon.

But, as for the v5 importer, the v6 form will not be fully imported, some form data will be hard to migrate to v7, so if your form is "complex" then it will be better to understand v7 and just remake the form there.

Max, for me and for a lot of us, complex forms mean very complex forms, impossible to remake in v7, too many views, functions, event and code.

Exist a CF6 CC6 road map to joomla 4?
A lot of us invoke it more than an impoter to v7 of cf/cc6 forms (that, ok, is nedded).

We need a stable version of CF6/CC6 working on j4 php8 to be safe, no more updates needed, no more function added, a 100% working porting of CC6/CF6 to no rebuild all of our applications.

I agree with this statement of an upgrade path of CF6.

I’ve decided that going forward I won’t use CF7, and in my case if I have to rebuild forms, I’m going the old fashion route of doing them straight up myself without a form builder. Google is great for that lol.

Being tied down to PHP and Joomla limitations is tough.

It’s very unfortunate that CF6 appears to be dying a slow death…. It is by far the most supper form builder out there.

I have an almost complete CF v6 installer for J4 and PHP8, but this needs to be tested under different scenarios, please send me through the contact page to get the installer and test it with your forms on your J4 website.

Best regards,
Max
