I've been trying to figure out ChronoForms off and on for a few weeks now. I need to get a form working because a neighborhood watch group wants to be able to announce its availability for a meeting tomorrow night.
I'm using Joomla! 1.5.2, ChronoForms 3.0 with the Plugin installed and enabled, and have tried both the wizard and pasting Straight HTML (excluding the form tags) into the Form Tab.
When Debug is on, I get the following:
* 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
And in the main area, I get (I replaced the actual information entered in these fields):
_POST: Array ( [name] => Test Name [address] => the address [zip] => 99999 [phone] => 555-555-5555 [email] => [email]test@testemail.com[/email] [area] => Test [checkbox] => checkbox [Submit] => Submit [ecface21d77a81fce23f8b9d087634fb] => 1 )
So it seems to be working, but no e-mail is received on the other end.
When I enable Anti-Spam, I'm getting the message, "You have entered an incorrect verification code at the bottom of the form." The form does not contain any verification box or image whether set to With Fonts or Without Fonts.
Thank you for any help you can provide,
Ernie

Hi ernienet,
To show the imageverification code in your form you need to put {imageverification} in your form html (you cando this at the Form Wizard stage by dragging in a 'Captcha' box). The code that Captch generates is
For the email issues, please make sure that you have email enabled - check the column in the Form Manager and make sure you have at least "Enabled:1" then look at the FAQ "My e-mails aren't being sent".

<div class="form_element cf_captcha"><label class="cf_label">Click Me to Edit</label><span>{imageverification}</span></div>

Thank you, Bob,
I got the first part working by placing the code above the Submit button and it seemed to work. I had already enabled e-mail in the General tab, but I'm not sure what is required to get "Enabled:1" to show up in the form list (it's "Enabled:0" and "Disabled:1").
I've attached a screen shot of what I think is the problem. It's on the "Setup Emails" tab. I can't figure out how to get them to turn green, and I'm not certain which ones to use. Is this even the place where I should be adding the fields?
Thanks,
Ernie

Hi, try to add a "From email" field and fill it with some email address which is different than the TO email!

I'm sorry, I'm just not getting this part of the component. I changed it as you indicated, and read the FAQ earlier, but the output is similar to my first message, and that the fields on the tab in the screen shot above won't turn green as the text box said it should.
I'm clearly missing something here.
Thanks,
Ernie

show me a new screenshot ?
The form results are:
* 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
And the output to the screen is:
_POST: Array ( [name] => Ernie xxxxxxx [address] => xxxxxxxxx [zip] => 99999 [phone] => 555-555-5555 [email] => [email]ernie@xxxxxxxx.com[/email] [area] => Test [checkbox] => checkbox [chrono_verification] => XuFkW [Submit] => Submit [47ac42707ec8a73b108952fc3a1af895] => 1 )

Hi ernienet,
You need a From Name field there too. Then the email field will turn green(?) and you will be able to enable and apply it.
