I have been asked to help with a joomla site that was upgraded. There are now two part broken websites. One has working chronoform 4 forms which recieve data, but the backend is broken so it cant be accessed and the other is joomla 4 and is broken all togethe but I can see logged data.What I would like to do is see if there is an easy way to copy the forms from chronoform 4 database into chronoform 8 database. I am unable to export forms due to the broken nature of it all.I have tried spinning up a joomla 3 site and tried piecing together parts to get chronoform4 installed and then copy the database to create exports, but I cant seem to get a working version of chronoforms 4.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Help with broken upgrade
Hi verse
There is no way to export your v4 forms to v8, you will have to rebuild the forms in v8, which should not be so difficult if the forms are basic ones and you are familiar with how v8 works, here is a tutorial:

Ah ok. The fields are simple in principle, but I believe there seems to be some custom php script for validation and I have no knowledge on how to recreate the actions exactly.
Do you think someone from Chrono Forms would be able to help with this? if so could you reach out with details / rates please.
v8 has many validations available, but if they had custom validations then this will have to be copied to the right place in v8
