Displaying the form in the material, created FLEXIcontent

konseo 12 Sep, 2010
I would be very grateful for the help.
The form is created and published. The plugin is installed and published.
In the material that was created using FLEXIcontent inserted {chronocontact}nameform{/chronocontact}
The form did not appear.
In what may be the reason?



Thank you
I apologize for bad English. I translate Google

Hi konseo ,

I'm afraid that I know nothing about FLEXIContent - though I see it is written by Emmanuel Danan who sometimes posts here.

If you have the ChronoForms Plug-in installed and enabled then it should work provided that FLEXIContent supports Joomla! Plug-ins.

Hello,
did you find a solution ? I have the same problem today (3 years after) :

{chronocontact}Candidature{/chronocontact} instead of my form.

On flexicontent's forum they said it could be a problem like this one : http://flexicontent.org/forum/index.php?f=31&t=5942&rb_v=viewtopic
But I don't know where to look for similar lines concerning Chronoforms...

Thanks for kind help

Quote from the FlexiContent forums:

Hello,

just note that triggering content plugins is irrelevant to displaying editor button in item form

-- this plugin is commercial so i cannot examine its code,
-- it could be that it checks if current view is com_content edit form? please ask this the developer ! it should be very easy for him to fix

You could also test this:
-- Edit plugins/flexicontent_fields/textarea/textarea.php
Add this at top of function onDisplayField() (inside it just after {) :

// Pretend to be com_content, could this be needed ? or will it cause problems?
JRequest::setVar('view', 'article');
JRequest::setVar('option', 'com_content');
JRequest::setVar("isflexicontent", "yes");

And add the bottom of it (inside it just before })
// Restore Request variables
JRequest::setVar('view', FLEXI_ITEMVIEW);
JRequest::setVar('option', 'com_flexicontent');


Regards

Hi V@lentine,

I don't have anything to add to my previous answer except to say that the plug-in tags for CFv4 are now {chronoforms}form_name{/chronoforms}

I took a quick look at the thread you linked to but don't see what the connection is?

Changed the tags to {chronoforms}Candidature{/chronoforms} but still can't see my form.

On flexicontent's forum they suggested that I looked at this thread, that maybe it's a problem with com_content (I did not quite understand what, because as far as Joomla's code is concerned I get quicly lost) I really thought you might see what they mean...

Hi V@lentine,

Sorry, it doesn't mean much to me. Does FlexiContent support Joomla! content Plug-ins? If so then the CF plug-in should work (though there are some slightly different ways to support plug-ins so that isn't guaranteed).
