When the submit button is clicked... the redirect takes them to the thank you page....but the email never shows up.
Looking on the back end... what happens is that Chronoforms creates a copy of the form under Forms management and names it whatever was in the first field of the form as the 'Name' of the form that was just created.
Any ideas about what I'm missing?
OK... I believe this is a permissions thing, because even though the forms admin page can be changed to "yes" (enabled) on the 'email properties' (second tab) and 'saved'... it still shows 'no' when you go back into the forms manager. So... what config file is this saved in?
there is a global email enable at the general tab, please take a moment to read the ChronoForms tutorials on our downloads area!😉
I cant understand this :

Edit--->
Found it... Downloads.. tutorials. Not the obvious 'Tutorials" link on the right hand side of your site.

I have deleted that form and started over... and this no longer occurs
let me know!

which steps was confusing for you ?
You said
it has a numbered step by step for how to create the email and get it working!
I said
I had to change the order of the steps to get it to work on my installation. If i performed the steps in the order you outlined... it fails.
So, which part of that statement is confusing to you?
I've just stepped through the tutorial and I see where the problem may be - at steps 6 & 7 you can't actually enable the email. The text below covers this
Notice that when the container opens it is coloured red.
This means that ChronoForms doesn't yet have all the information it needs to complete the email.
The Email Properties box has also opened at the bottom right and you can see that the 'Enabled?' option is greyed out.
Apart from that everything seems to work as described.
