Multi Page + Confirmation Page

axiale05 28 May, 2009
First of course great component for joomla 1.5 I really like it and using it to more extensive way of using this plugin.

I've been struggling pulling the data from multi page to confirmation page.. here's what I have.

Holder - Mother Form - (Use Multi Page and enabled it in the form)
form_1 - 1st child form - (Connect to the database named "chronoforms_details" and write enabled)
form_2 - 2nd child form - (Create Table name "chronoforms_details" + create new 2 field which is from form_1 and write enabled)

everything is working fine like when I click the "mother form" it gives me the first form which is form_1 after a fill the form_1 and click next step button It directs me to form_2 when I click submit then the problem occurs.

Problem 1: the data that I input is not writing into the database which is "chronoforms_details" database, but I tried using 1 single form which is form_1 to try if it is writing to database and yes it's writing.

Question 1: Is that right process of creating and writing to database using multi-page? or am i missing something

Problem 2: I enabled confirmation in form_2 but when I click submit button it only gives me the confirmation information of form_2 and not the form_1.

Question 2: Is it right enabling the confirmation in form_2 or it's different process? How can I populate the data that I input in form_1 and form_2 in confirmation page?


Thanks in advanced!

Hi axiale05,

I have just sent you the latest version to fix problem 1, however I didn't test the multi page plugin with the confirmation page which some user reported it has some problem!

I've got the same problem(1). Writing to the database with a multipage form does not work. After many test I found this thread. Could you also send me the fix?

A possible workaround for the second problem: create a third form where you make your own confirmation page in the form HTML. It's more work but it works.

Oh, for I forget: very nice extension, I'm going to implement this in my new Joomla site very soon.

sorry for late rep, I was disconnected in the internet world for 2 days.. will try the latest component, and will get back to you guys!

I've tried the updated component and it's solve one of my problem which is problem 2.

Problem 2: I enabled confirmation in form_2 but when I click submit button it only gives me the confirmation information of form_2 and not the form_1.

Question 2: Is it right enabling the confirmation in form_2 or it's different process? How can I populate the data that I input in form_1 and form_2 in confirmation page?



and the process above is correct. the only problem here is when I click the submit button in form_2 it gives me the confirmation page and below that it also populate the after submit text which ideally it should be after I submit my final confirmation.

is that a bug? or it's just a wrong process.

and my final problem is writing the database. I thought the updated one fixed the writing mode in the database. am i missing something on that?

THanks
Jon

PROBLEM 1 is FIXED -if I disabled the confirmation plugin.. (any work around in this?)

Problem 1: the data that I input is not writing into the database which is "chronoforms_details" database, but I tried using 1 single form which is form_1 to try if it is writing to database and yes it's writing.

Question 1: Is that right process of creating and writing to database using multi-page? or am i missing something



TIP: when creating multi page, you need to connect mother form (which I missed) and it's child form to the specified database to enabled the writing.

Thanks
Jon

my final issue is when I click the submit button in form_2 it gives me the confirmation page and below that it also populate the "after submit text" which ideally it should be after I submit my final confirmation.

but if I remove the "after submit text" when the confirmation information is showed and I click submit it redirects me to form_1 again.

please let me know if it make sense so I can elaborate more..

Hi Jon,

Honestly I didn't try the 2 plugins together, some users report issues with the confirmation page plugin too so I will test it and see if any fixes should be made, you may contact me again soon to know the news!

Agree.. it's not possible to use those 2 plugin at the same time.. really bad for me:( as I need it.. anyway goodluck on developing this component, I will try it without multi page for now. and will hit you back if there's new update!
