fields missing in table

Hi, I'm totally a newbie in joomla and chronoforms. I created a form with some textfields and connect it with a table as described in saving to database tutorial. I checked everything is correct but after filling the form and click on submit, there is nothing saved on my new created table. moreover, the automatically generated fields are missing. I just need to retrieve data with chronoconnectivity but I could not even have any entry in my table. I search the forum for hours and I could not find any solution so, I decided to ask for help. I am also new to mysql and php programming stuff🙂

hi, thanks for quick reply. I attached my form. it is a very simple form yet.

Hi firestarter,

You form works OK here - all the data is being saved in the database table.

How do you know that it's not being saved? Where are you looking?

Hi again, I'm checking from table manager then to the saved record. fields for texts and selection is missing. Also when I checked from phpmyadmin these fields are not saved under this table. the problem occurs at both localhost and on my website.😟

Hi firestarter,

Then I suspect that those fields are not in the table, you need to select them when you use the Create Table command.

This is interesting. when I created a new table with the new created form selected. fields were there first, I enabled them and save the table and directed to the phpmyadmin and these new fields are not in that table anymore, only uid, recordtime, ipadress and cf_user_id fields are shown under it. I get back to the table manager and added these fields again(text_0,text_1 and select2) but when I resaved the form with changes I recognized that in autogenerated code only the default fields are called from the database table. I think, I will need to add these new fields to the autogenerated code manually. I will give it a try. but I could not find what I'm doing wrong while creating the table..

hi again, now I can see the entries for the text fields but for the dropdown list, still nothing. how am I gonna be able to do that?

Hi firestarter,

No idea, it saved OK here - I made no changes to the from except to create a table from it and re-make the DB connection.
