Email Template won't save changes

stirfry213 14 Apr, 2009
I am using Joomla 1.5.8 and Chronoforms V3.0.

I have a somewhat elaborate form. When go to create an email template for it, it will auto generate the code for me but it screws some of it up, so I need to go in and change some of it. When I do, it will never update it and actually won't save but maybe 10% of the code. I'll paste examples of what I mean.

Code I want:

Something is deleting most of the code I have written for the template automatically. I really would like a fix for this. Thank you in advance!

Hi,

are you sure you add this code in the HTML mode for the editor ? if you add it in the default mode then your code will be changed of course, I just tested this in V3.1 and it works fine!

Yeah, I don't use the Form Wizard. I've been using chronoforms for some time now and am fairly familiar with it. I had noticed that the Email Template area of the component has acted funny, but I've always got it to do what I needed. This is the first time it just wouldn't work.

On a good note, I updated to the lastest version (V3.1 RC4.11) and all is good. It was just odd that I've never run into this bug before.

Just a side question, I have purchased chronoforms. Now when I downloaded the newest version, the "Joomla Professional Work" pops back up on the forms. Can I use the v3.0 patch that was sent to me or do I need a new one for this new version?

EDIT: Thank you for the quick responce!
