Is there a simple step-by-step how to for using Chronoforms 3.0 release? I looked at the video tutorial, and because it's for Joomla 1.0, a lot of it's not applicable.

I just started creating a form using the form wizard. Added fields just fine. Saved it at one point so that I wouldn't lose it, and it took me out of the wizard area. When I go to Forms Management, and select EDIT the form I started, how do I get back into the form wizard mode? The only options are a bunch of tabbed items with technical information, but nothing where I can see the fields I've set up, or options to edit them.

Also, the menu creator drop down list to select Parent is confusing. Have no idea what I'm supposed to select, or why. I was assuming it would allow me to select a menu to add a link for the form, but it seems to list every component and manager in the system.

In the attachment, I want to edit name of the upload file field and add an additional field.
Thank you!

Hi Kathy,

unfortunately editing forms is not possible with the wizard, we are working on this but when the wizard was made it was for a one time help, its like any software wizard, it helps you the first time but later you need to edit things your self!

if you want to edit this field now, open the tabbed form edit page and find the "Form Code" tab and at the HTML box you can find all the form HTML code created with the wizard, edit it there and save and it will be ready!

creating a menu is just as creating one for any other component, the "menu creator" option is for an admin menu, you are looking for a frontend menu so simply do it as any other menu through the Joomla menu manager! (Menus > Main Menu)

Cheers
