Chronoforms does not allow custom date field names

I've created a custom form (not using the wizard) which works great, I am now adding in the code in for the date picker as noted in a different post. The problem is, that I need to put in a custom name and ID on the date fields, not date_0, date_1 etc. If I set the form up with date_0, date_1 everything works fine. When I replace the standard values in the name and id attributes, it won't show the picker. I've made sure both the name and id match, and I've put the field name in the date fields section of the auto generated code section thinking that would help, but it didn't.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Chris

Hi Chris,

I wonder if changes in the datesfields list aren't being saved to the database. As a worksround you could try editing the database record. Open up the jos_chrono_contact table and you'll find it has a record for each form. Look for the 'paramsall' column for your form and edit the line starting datefieldsnames=

Hi Chris,

date fields names doesn't matter because if you renamed the field to anything in the wizard then it works!

whats your field name at the moment and what do you have in the dates field in the auto generated tab ?
