Hi, i'm pretty new with chronoforms, and i have a question.

Im trying to make a customer database, and i want chronoforms not only to insert the joomla user id (so not just: cf_user_id : 62): but also the original joomla e-mail and user name. I've tried a lot, but i cant get it work. Someone knows how to do this?



Thanks,

Hi jordidegeus,

It's not difficult - search the forums her on JFactory +getUser and you'll find dozens of posts on getting the information you need.

Having said that . . . don't do it, store the user id and look up the name and username in the jos_users table when you need it. That way you remove any problems with keeping the two tables in sync when things change (which they always do).
