ChronoForms and CB registration form

hi all,

can anyone plz tell me the procedure to use Chrono Form instead of CB registration form.
I searched into lot many forums, but couldn't make out. 😟

waiting for your reply .... 🙂

Hi, check this tutorial attached here :
http://www.chronoengine.com/forums/index.php?option=com_chronoforums&cont=posts&f=5&t=11297#p14969

hi, thanks that you replied..
i had gone through this, also saw that pdf, but i got stuck up in the last part, i.e. in default.php file. I tried both the code but that gave me an error like "url not found." 😟

hi,

ok now what i did is,
in default.php(components\com_user\views\register\tmpl\default.php) is pasted the form url generated after the form creation. i.e. "index.php?option=com_chronocontact&chronoformname=Registration_form"

but after submitting the form, the registered user is not saved to the joomla database.
am i going wrong some where?

please do reply....

Hi sapna,

skip the last step completely, which include the files edits, does it work fine ?

hey,
but after doing so, i m getting the joomla registration form and not the chrono form for registration
how do i link that.
there might be a minute mistake. please help me. 😟

hey guys,
please get me out of this !!!! 😟
I really need it urgently ...
cant proceed 😟

Hi,

in your template index.php file, add this code :

<?php
if(JRequest::getVar('task') == 'register')$mainframe->redirect('form_link_goes_here');
?>

works ?

hey, worked !!!!! 😀
thanks a ton.
but, no email is send to the user after registration, and the user is also not added into the user manager ...
do i need to do some settings ????

i also enabled the data storage. and selected the jos_users table, but got an warning like

Warning: implode() [function.implode]: Bad arguments. in /opt/lampp/htdocs/Joomla_VM_try/libraries/joomla/database/database/mysql.php on line 534
me using,
joomla 1.5(VM)
chrono v3 stable

please please get me out of this, I have being trying this sice 2 days 😟 😟

Hi sapna,

you confirmed all is working well before we add the redirect code, the plugin only is enough to add the user, don't connect to the jos_user table, what happens when you have the plugin only enabled ? did you enable the "send email to user" feature in the plugin config ?

Cheers

Max

hi Max,

thanks a ton.. it worked !!!!!! 😀

hey,
i have one more problem, now i want those registration fields data filled by a user, to go into its profile.
how do i do this?

if the registration fields are CB fields then you can control this in CB i believe!

hey Max,

both the fields are same, but, how do i do that ?
i even made the name same as jos_comprofiler field name.
but dint worked..... 😟
plz plz help me out !!!!! trying this since long time

I think when fields in CB are enabled for profile then they will appear in profile, and you just use Chronoforms to fill those fields with data.

thanks Max for the instant reply.

but i m not getting how do i get the data of the form fields into the profile.

do i need to do some setting or need to write some SQL query ???

plz help me (step by step) ...

thanks

ok,

i enabled the data storage and select the table jos_comprofiler....
but got an error as

* Please enter Your Name.
* Tablecomprofiler::store failed - Duplicate entry '0' for key 1 SQL=INSERT INTO jos_comprofiler ( `id`,`firstname`,`lastname`,`website`,`company`,`address`,`city`,`state`,`phone`,`cb_businesslocation`,`cb_buyersellerboth`,`cb_listofverticals` ) VALUES ( '0','jiu','uiiii','q','q','q','q','q','11','qqq',' Both','cat2' )

I know this is too silly but couldn't make out
please help 🙂

Hi sapna,

we agreed that you will not enable the connection and the plugin at one form!!

what happens when you got everything working ? show me your form image.

Max

hi max,

I have done with the registration form and when the users register they are getting added onto the user table, now what i am left with is, i want these user to get into the comprofiler table. so that when they view their profile they get those data which they have field during the registration.
my registration form contain the fields like,common fields,company,website,city ,state,address,etc

hope your are getting me....

Hi sapna,

Well, I thought you was getting the data in the CB table when you said its working, if you followed that tutorial and disable the DB connection and enabled the CB plugin ONLY, don't you get the CB data in the CB table ?

Max

what i did is, enabled the joomla Registration plugin and profile plugin.
but, my form details are not saved to the jos_comprofile.

someone please help me out, i m really getting frustrated

😟 😟 😟

Can you disable those 2 plugins and enable the CB plugin only ?

hi,
still dint worked ..
now what I did is, i wrote an sql query, "insert into jos_comprofiler ....." in the form code after submit. and runs well.
now a problem is like, i had the drop-down box in my registration form that fetches the values from the database, but that value is not inserted into the comprofiler table.....
can anyone help me on this???

shoe me the dropdown code

I'm having my own problems with connecting the two.

I've followed all the directions in the pdf and the form works with validation and everything, but when you press submit it goes to a 403 error page.

Here is the link: http://www.stmcouncil.com/index.php?option=com_chronocontact&chronoformname=registration2

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

Hi Nix,

To let us test this please turn off validation and imageverification and turn debug on. I'm happy to have a look but not if I have to enter twenty required fields before I can submit.

Bob

Hi Nix,

The CB plugin of Chronoforms, uses the Joomla global config for registration and not the CB one, so you must have registration enabled at the Joomla config, is this what you have ?

Cheers
Max

So after I enabled the registration it actually went through, but I don't know if it is actually creating members. The debug is turned on and verification and the image are off too.

Basically, I want to register users so they can login with the username and password and I need the other additional information to go into the database/a database so it's accessible for our school's alumni association.

Thanks for the responses, hopefully we can get it to work,
Nick

And this is the debug information:

Message

* Form passed first SPAM check OK
* Form passed the submissions limit (if enabled) OK
* Form passed the Image verification (if enabled) OK
* Form passed the server side validation (if enabled) OK
* Form passed the plugins step (if enabled) OK
* Emails data loaded OK
* Form passed all before email code evaluation OK
* Debug End

Actually thanks, it's all working now.

My only last question is, now that the extra info is in the Community Builder databases, how would I go about searching through the databases once they are populated?

Hi Nix, I think CB has a search plugin ?
