Hi All,

We are running Joomla 1.0.15, therefore I am running an older version of Chronoforms (2.3.9). I have been able to create a basic data entry form and save a record to a table.

Questions:

All the tutorials I can find are for 3.0 or greater Chronoforms. Can anyone point me to older versions of tutorials? videos?

In version 2.3.9, can I pull up a record and do basic CRUD operations?

In Form management, on the "Validation" tab for my form, I have set "Enable validation?" to "Yes". For "1 - Required", I have a comma separated list of fields (that are required). I can submit the forms without filling in the required fields. What else must I do?

Thanks in advance!

Hi dorkboy,

old tutorials are from the home page, the link is on the left side!

CRUD = ???

if the validation is on then try to switch the validation library option, if this didn't work then probably you have a javascript conflict with something else at the page!

Cheers

Hi dorkboy, Max,

@Max: CRUD = Create, Read, Update, Delete (when you are talking about databases).

@Dorkboy: In version 2.3.9 you can add any PHP+MySQL code in the Form HTML, OnSubmit Before & After & AutoGenerated Code boxes. IIRC there is no direct support for database linkage apart from the ability to Insert to a table using the default AutoGenerated Code box.

Note that OnSubmit Before code is only run if 'Send Emails' is on; and it runs after the email parsing is done so any changes to the $_POST variables will not directly affect the email (there is a workaround if you need to do this).

Thanks Bob, I didn't figure it out myself!! 😀
