How to add extra fields to CB and CB registration form

lennart 31 Jan, 2009
For different kind of users I need different registration forms. Using Chronoforms it think I can accomplish that.
Did this exacly and succeeded! Here's the tutorial
Exept: instead of Joomla registration I choose CB Registration. But registration test succeeded just fine. Form Registration: succesfull.

Stepping up: first i make a copy of form Registration and named it Registration1

Now I want to add extra self made fields in my CB registration form. So, in CB Field Manager I created a new field called Test3:

Type: text Field
Tab: About me...
Name: Test3 (was automatically altered to cb_Test3)
Title: Test3


In the form html, in between Confirm Password* and image verification I added:
<div class="form_item">
	<div class="form_element cf_textbox">
		<label class="cf_label">Test3*</label>
		<input class="cf_inputbox required" maxlength="150" size="50" id="text_5" name="text_5" type="text">
	</div>
	<div class="clear">ย </div>
</div>


Testing the form leads to this result:

* 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

_POST: Array ( [text_0] => zonnet2 [text_1] => ggwg [text_2] => [email]lenard@zonnet.nl[/email] [text_3] => fiets [text_4] => fiets [text_5] => testvak3 [chrono_verification] => QY3SX [undefined] => Register [58feeb0bece941cc05764493e3295dc4] => 1 )


But the form does not arrive in email. What did I miss / do wrong? ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ

Thanks!

Hi lennart,

judging this will not be by the email arrival but by checking if the user is added to the CB or not ? does it get added ? did you follow the tutorial strictly ?

Thanks Max,
Untill stepping up I did exacly the pdf-file. And it worked! After that I improvised exactly as described above. Just gave it another try. User was not added to CB.

You can try here

I compared both forms and i am positive they are exacly similar, except for:

In the 2nd form html: form 'Registration1', in between Confirm Password* and image verification I added:
<div class="form_item">
<div class="form_element cf_textbox">
<label class="cf_label">Test3*</label>
<input class="cf_inputbox required" maxlength="150" size="50" id="text_5" name="text_5" type="text">
</div>
<div class="clear">ย </div>
</div>

:?: ๐Ÿ˜‘ You must be mistaken! It does open now, and there was no change since you tried.

still doesn't work, it may be your domain name is not propagated to some DNSs on the internet, did you change the DNS of your domain recently ?

Hi lennart and Max,

The form loads Ok for me and looks OK.

@lennart: have you linked the fields in the CB_registration PlugIn setup? In the Forms Manager I think you have to select the form and click the PlugIn link to do this.

Right! Getting closer ๐Ÿ˜€, that's for sure. I'll go on trying later!
I don't know about DNS Max, but of course I want unrestricted acces to my website. Why can't you get there and GreyHead can???

hi, I have no idea, I think its the DNS!
