I've figured out how to create a form. And, I've figure out how to link to the form.

But, I'd like the form to be part of an overall page. Is there a way to include the form coding in an existing Joomla article? (something like an iframe?)

Thanks,

John

Hi jgold723,

You need the ChronoForms Mambot/PlugIn from the Downloads area here.

There's also a ChronoForms module that will let you put a form into a Module space.

Hi Bob:

Thanks for your reply. I do have the Chronoforms component (version 2) installed and I used that to create the form. But now I want to include it on the existing Joomla page. Do I use the module for that?

Thanks,

John

Hi Jgold723,

No . . . You need the ChronoForms Mambot/PlugIn from the Downloads area here.

Bob

Hmmm... well, I downloaded that (for version 2) and when I tried to install it, I got a message that it was already installed?

Hi jgold723,

If it's already installed that's fine. Make sure that it is published, then you can include your form in the article page with the {crhonocontact}form_name{/chronocontact} tags as it says in the Mambot help.

Hi Bob:

Thanks for your help and my apologies for being so thick on this. My problem was one of language -- I was looking for a "Mambot" and this appeared under "plugins". I published the plugin and used the code you provided and it works! Thanks.

Hi John,

It gets very confusing. What were 'Mambots' in Mambo and Joomla 1.0 are now 'PlugIns' in Joomla 1.5 (and ChronoForms has quite different Plugins of its own).
