I am in dire need of directions. I have multiple forms that have to be redone rather quickly in CF 7. To date I have had no luck other than designing the form image.
I am trying to recreate all my forms live in my existing Joomla 3.xx, PHP 7.4 site. I cannot do a test site yet as our website changes hourly. I was hoping to get all forms working in CF7, then do a test site to convert to Joomla 4.x and PHP 8.0.
I am at my wits end. Someone please help!!!
I need step by step directions. One member sent me screen shots of how she did it, but apparently I am missing something.
1. All my forms must save the data to a data-table
2. All my forms must send a confirmation of the data to the user
3. All my forms require distribution of data to multiple email addresses
4. All my forms require a confirmation message to the screen after submitting
I am not a programmer, I don't understand PHP. I did one advance form for Contact. I cannot get the form to save the data to the data log or data-table I created using PHPMyAdmin. After submitting, nothing happens, the data sits on the screen. No confirmation message, no emails, so data-table save and no data log save.
Can anyone give me step by step instruction from the ground up??
Thank you in advance for any help.

Colnem,
Unfortunately I do not speak French. BUT, the very good news is that through another member in this forum I have gotten the most simple form done and it is saving the data to a table, sending the email to the user, to the admin and sending a confirmation message to the screen!!
I am ecstatic!!!
Now, off to apply what I have learn to our most difficult forms. These other forms require sending multiple emails based on choices made in the form. In Chronoform 6.0 I used switches and since that does not exist anymore, I will need to figure out just how to do that.
Once all forms are complete, then it will be testing to see if everything works once I convert to Joomla 4.xx and PHP 8.0
I will keep you informed.
Thank you much,
Donna
