Forums

I have gone through the tutorial for generic joomla registration and tried to piece together the delta for CB, but I'm running into multiple problems that mostly seem to be related to validations:

A successful registration creates a new user in the user DB, but takes me to a blank page (index.php?option=com_chronocontact&task=send&chronoformname=registration) rather than my defined landing page.

An unsuccessful registration (like, if I use the same email address as someone who has already registered) takes me to my defined landing page but does not create a user in the DB...

Email notifications are not sent in either instance, to either admins or registrants.

A password mismatch gives me a very ugly (500 - PASSWORD DO NOT MATCH.) result and if I hit the back button, I have to start over with a blank form all over again. (Surely there must be a more elegant way of handling password mismatch than super ugly 500 server error followed by requiring user to re-enter everything from scratch?)

The list goes on, but rather than try to troubleshoot 15 problems through the forums, is there a document anywhere can help me here? The generic tutorial is kinda helpful, but I'm thinking that specific instructions for CB registration could save me (and you!) a lot of time given the large number of problems that I'm having...

Hi yizzung,

Neither Max nor I use CB so we can't always help as much as we can with other extensions. We do have other users who are using the CB REgistration successfully though.

The Plugin is probably overdue for a re-write. I've been working through most of them bit by bit using a new code base. Joomla REgistration is improved but not yet the CB version.

How are you designating your 'landing page' - the blank page you see sounds like the standard ChronoForms after submit page - you can add php+html in either of the OnSubmit boxes to show up there.

An unsuccessful reagistation won't create a user - pretty much by definition. Not sure about the re-direction though.

Emails not being set could be any one of a number of reasons, the most common is that the site isn't set up to send emails.

Sorry, but there are no other documents, you may find a CB tutorial in the forum threads here but it would have been some months ago and I don't recall clearly.
