Hello, I know this is pretty basic but I can't get the validation to work. According to the tool tip, you just add in the filed names separated by a comma. Eg, name,phone,address. I've done this but the validation is not working.

I'm using version 3.0 J1.5 BETA 1 on a J1.5.6 site

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Jross, and you should also enable validation at the top, did you enable it ? can I see your webpage ?

you should also get BETA 2 because it got more issues fixed, but nothing with the validation changed because it was working!

Hi Max,

yes validation is checked. Continued to play with it and actually got it to work but now everytime I save a form, the form name disappears in the Chrono Forms - Forms Manager area. The name of the form also disappears off the form URL and the form disappears from the frontend. Bizarre. (I've attached a screenshot to show what is happening if I edit a form)

I mentioned I'm using version 3.0 J1.5 BETA 1 on a J1.5.6 site. I forgot to mention I'm using legacy mode. Based on this, what version of Chrono Forms should I be using? Something buggy is happening and maybe I'm running the wrong CF version?

Hi Jon,

after you fix the no name issue you should get BETA 2 from the downloads area, there is some info there how to upgrade to it from Beta 1.

to fix the name issue, find in your form code a field with name="name", change it to name="fullname" or name="name1", only name="name" will make this problem!

I am having similar problem with the validation of multiple fields, e.g. firstname, surname, address.

Currently I am using ChronoForms 2.5 on a Joomla 1.5 website.

Should I install a later version of Chronoform?

Regards.

Hi Norman,
