Hi,

Is there anyway to add about 100 - 150 text entry fields quickly?

Also, will chrono forms handle that quantity?

I tried fiddling with the the edit HTML, but it did not update on the front end.

Many thanks, i love chrono form, so id like to use it for this tedious task.

Thanks

Hi bennychains,

Cut and paste in the Form HTML. Or an array of labels and names with a little PHP loop.

But, if i update the from html, it should update also in the form wizard?

Hi bennycahins,

No, once you manually edit the Form HTML you can no longer use the Form Wizard again on that form (or if you do you will lose all the maunal edits).

Ok,

SO i may have won the award for most fields in a chrono contact form. 215 text entry boxes!

HOWEVER, this has led me to a new conundrum, and i beg that you know the answer.

I shall explain by stating goal first:

Its a produce company i want customers to be able to enter in quantity of items in boxes, and then the email be sent to me containing ONLY THE FIELDS IN WHICH INFO HAS BEEN ENTERED to be emailed to me. NOT the entire form of data including the blank fields/titles.

So, if someone typed in the number 4 under broccoli, i just want to receive an email containing "Broccoli 4"

Please tell me this is possible. I just spent hours putting this entire form together.

thanks so much

im thinking of this strategically.

and if you know a better way please please enlighten..

WHAT IF:

i add a check box in front of every single one text field. I move the name of the field to the checkbox, and i hide the name of the text field. ??

There has to be a way to do this.. Preferably without me having to rewrite this project.

THANKS!!!

Heres the link to see 200 line items, if you havent seen that before.🙂

Hi bennychains,

I'd add PHP into the email template to skip over the empty fields.

It would be helped by some judicious use of arrays to group your inputs together. Then you can loop through each array.

Mr Grey,

Regrettably, i am not a php-ninja and cannot figure that code out on my own. i was hoping there was an easy code excerpt that you knew of, or a setting that i could apply to apply this.

I appreciate it either way!
