Hi, all😀
Please hear me out. I want to edit my forms but I cannot save the changes I put in. For example, when I click basicDemo in the Forms Manager, the next page I get does not have a save button (please see attachment) or the apply button. Actually the header part totally disappears; I basically cannot do anything but just go back. I am finding this layout extremely inconvenient.
Is this how it's supposed to look like or am I missing something?? I've tried installing Chronoforms again, but I get the same thing.
Hope to hear some good solution.
Thanks a lot.
Hi crimson0216,
You seem to be missing the Joomla Admin template in this shot, there should be another menu bar and a set of icons to Save, Apply & Cancel.
I don't know why these are missing unless there is some old code still in use or a problem with your Joomla installation.

Hi, Bob
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, the top part of the Joomla Admin template is completely missing😟
Could there be a way to remove the old code or any other fixable ways instead of having to install Joomla all over again??
Thanks for any advice.
Hi crimson0216,
Which Joomla version do you have?
Is this a fresh installation or an upgrade?
Do you see the header for other extensions or is this problem just with ChronoForms?
Bob
Hi, Bob
My Joomla version is 1.5.12, and it is a fresh installation.
The header seems to show up in other extensions; it also shows up when I open Chronoforms from the Component dropdown. But when I click on the form name to edit, the header disappears. I just realized that this happens when the URL ends with "../administrator/index2.php?option=com_chronocontact".
Hope this will give some kind of clue.
Hi crimson0216,
It sounds as though some part of the ChronoForms file is damaged in the installation. Assuming that you have no forms saved yet I'd uninstall ChronoForms, clear out anything left in the administrator/components/com_chronocontact and /components/com_chronocontact folders, download a fresh copy from here and re-install. Hopefully that will fix whatever is missing.

Hi Bob,
Sorry... I tried reinstalling Chronoforms but I get the same result.
After uninstalling it, I couldn't find the administrator/components/com_chronocontact or the /components/com_chronocontact folder so I assumed it was completely uninstalled. Is there be anything else that I had to erase?
Or could this be more of a Joomla installation problem...?
Thanks.
Hi Bob,
I just installed Chronoforms into another Joomla site, and it turned out fine.
So I'm now pretty sure it's the Joomla installation that seemed to be the problem, not Chronoforms.
I think I'll find an alternative.
I'm sorry for all the trouble. I really appreciate your great help.
Thanks a lot😀
