Form wizard and new html code

Martine 08 Jan, 2011
Hey,

Nice software and extension! But it doesnt work! I hope you have a solution ?

The only thing what I need is a form with my own template that works! But the form wizard doesnt work. Nowhere something new to create ?? Text is impossible. And at joomla is is:

Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\administrator\components\com_chronocontact\admin.chronocontact.php on line 1593

I hope you have a solution for a demo. I would like to be a referral if it works with a banner and link of your company.

Thanks.

Hi Martine,

The 'Deprecated' warning is showing because you have Error Reporting set to a fairly high level. You can usually hide these warning messages by setting it to System Default (or None) in the sie Global Configuration. If it doesn't go away there is a code fix in the forums here if you search on the message.

The 'doesn't work' problem is a bit vague but my guess is that you probably have the MooTools Upgrade Plugin enabled. This is an optional plug-in that enables the MooTools 1.2 library on your site.

ChronoForms (and many other Joomla! extensions) use the MooTools 1.1.2 library that is installed by default. The ChronoForms Wizard, and other back-end code will not run with the plugin enabled.

If you disable the plug-in then ChronoForms should run correctly.

If you need MooTools 1.2 in the front-end of your site then there is a hack for the plug-in posted in the forums here that will enable the 1.2 library in the front-end only. However the ChronoForms validation code and some other features will not work with this version.

There's a fuller "How-to Document" here that includes fixed files that will let the front-end of ChronoForms work with MooTools 1.2.

Hi,

For 3 days I am searching your forum for making the receivement of mail in joomla work. Many people have a problem with this. Maybe this is a easy problem for experienced users but I am new. The other deprecated problems are solved with the codes in the script. I tried to solve this problem in many ways, joomla mailer librarie/utilities, php mailer, the forms etc. So I really would like to know how can I recieve mail ?

1. Where can I in administration configure the mail ? Global configurations or the scripts in the component ?
2. Why and how can I fix this information:

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:


[email]admin@yoursite.com[/email] ????? How and where can I fix this ???
SMTP error from remote mail server after RCPT TO:<admin@yoursite.com>:

At my website I have complicated forms but didnt realise it was so complicated to simply use forms. So I would also like to know if the forms at my website can be used and transformed in chronoforms. Tabel style with html? Actualy these forms are the most important part/engine of the site. http://www.iolair.org. I hope your software works and then I am happy to place a huge banner with link to refer to your website. Thanks anyway.

Hi,

Googling after modifying spam assasin in cpanel I found this at:

Change your site title and site email address

How to change your site title and site email address.

This gets asked quite frequently. How do I change the title of my website? And how do I change my site's email address? (for things such as error reports and when someone sends you a message using contact.php).

Back up the original file from your host:
/inc/header.inc.php WHERE IS THIS ?? AND WHAT IS THE EMAIL ADRES OF THE ADMINISTRATOR OF A JOOMLA SITE ??🤨

FOR EXAMPLE ALSO WHERE AND HOW TO MODIFY IN THE SCRIPT ?? :
http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/php-coding-help/if-i-edit-email-it-wont-send/


Find and edit:
$site['ver'] = '6.1';
$site['build'] = '4';
$site['title'] = 'Your site title';
$site['url'] = "http://www.yourdolphinsite.com/";

Change the 'Your site title'; to anything you want such as:
$site['title'] = 'My New Dolphin Site';

Save header.inc.php and reupload.

You may also at some point wish to change the email addresses you were asked for during install. You will find this in the same file /inc/header.inc.php a little further down in the file.

Find:
$site['email'] = "admin@yoursite.com";
$site['email_notify'] = "admin@yoursite.com";
$site['bugReportMail'] = "admin@yoursite.com";

Simply change the address/addresses to your liking.

Save header.inc.php and reupload.

You will also find you database name, database user, and database password in this file if you ever need to change this information.

And the paths to php, and imagemagik can also be changed here if need be.

$MOGRIFY = "/usr/bin/mogrify";
$CONVERT = "/usr/bin/convert";
$COMPOSITE = "/usr/bin/composite";
$PHPBIN = "/usr/local/bin/php";

I hope this helps a few. Good Luck and have fun!!

Hi Martine,

I have no idea what you are trying to do here but it all sounds very complicated.

You can change the title of a Joomla! site In Site Admin | Global Configuration | Site | Site Name

The default site 'From Email' address is set in Site Admin | Global Configuration | Server | Mail Settings | Mail from but can be over-ridden in the ChronoForms Email Setup by the entry in the From Email element of the setup.

The domain of the From Email should match your site domain to avoid the email being marked as spam.

This thread starts with the same problem I have ie the following error:
Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in C:\WampServe\www\Joomla_1.5\administrator\components\com_chronocontact\admin.chronocontact.php on line 1593.
I followed the instructions to check the Global Config setting on error, and even after setting to none, I still have the same problem.

I have a completely fresh install of Joomla V1.5.22, and Apache Version :2.2.17 PHP Version : 5.3.5, and am using ChronoForms_V3.2.0. It's all running on Windows 7 32bit.

I need to fix these problems as we have a new site due to go live in March and I would like to find a good forms process for members to join an Association of boat owners.

Please can you point me in athe right direction - I understand that I should not need a subscription yet, as there is your logo and link on the bottom of the form, and it should work normally.

Richard.

Hi Richard,

I trust that you got this sorted. Setting Error Reporting to 'System Default' or to 'None' in the site Global Configuration should do the trick.

If you want a complete fix, please see this post.
