Hi,
​
I have a weird issue where on the frontend of my site, my radio buttons aren't posted correctly. Using the debug option you can see that the field 'aanhef' is empty:

Array
(
    [chronoform] => offerte
    [gpage] => actions
    [bedrijfsnaam] => 6
    [aanhef] => 

While when you try to submit the form using the 'preview form at frontend' function you get this:

Array
(
    [chronoform] => offerte
    [gpage] => actions
    [bedrijfsnaam] => 6
    [aanhef] => De heer

The only difference is that i load the form on the homepage using the standard CF7 module. I can not for the life of me figure out why this is happening since the radio values simply dissapear and no further processing is done at this point
​
Thanks in advance,
Simon

Hi Simon,
​
Please can you post or PM a link to the form page so we can take a quick look.

Hi Bob,
​
I currently cannot send private messages since i get the error 'You can not send private messages yet', Can i send you a mail instead (or can the resctriction be lifted?).
​
Thanks,
Simon

I just sent a PM

Hi,
​
Thank you for the link. It appears to me that the template is over-writing the format of the radio buttons with a button of its own and is then setting the opacity of the ChronoForms checkbox to 0 so it is hidden. We've seen this before with some template families. Try turning off this option in the template settings; or using a url with &tmpl=component to load the form in the module.

Thank you for the analysis and your insight Bob. But I don't get it completely. These fields are mandatory and validated. If we were seeing another field instead fo the CF form field, and we're entering values in the visible field, wouldn't validation then return a error/message on the CF field(s) as they are left empty? Also, there is Contact form on this website that uses the (as far as I can see) exact same field and it's settings, rendered under the same template, and this form returns the field's value without problems. I'm still puzzled :/

Hi Erik,
​
The JavaScript validation might not pick up the omission as the inputs are hidden - I'm not sure about that. However, server side validation should pick up the error.
