chronoforms V4: Questions about Captcha, Reset button CC

Hello,

After i updated my joomla to 1.7 i installed chronoforms V4 (i was using V2 or something at my old joomla :mrgreen: )

How does the Captcha works? All i want that when a user dont put the Captcha code They get a "cloud" with the error message, so the user can try again. I get Captcha (really small, but ok,) but when the captcha is not correct, the form is send anyways!!

How do i creat a resetbutton? i dont see this option??

Why there is not an option for Dynamic CC?? Is it possible to use dynamix AND static to together??

I hope this can be fixed! because i really like the new chrono forms (when i finaly find everything :mrgreen: )

greetings, marco!

Hi Marco,

You need three things working together for the ChronoForms captcha:[list=a]

A Captcha Input element on the form Preview tab;

A Load Captcha action in the On Load event on the Events tab

A Check Capthca action in the On Submit event on the Events tab with an Event Loop action in the pink On Fail event box.

[/list:o]
You will not get a little cloud error message with Captcha - as the check is done on the server after the form is submitted. This is for security so that it can't be bypassed by viewing the form without JavaScript.

You can create a Rest button using a Custom element; or by editing the Form HTML on the General tab (accessed from the Form Name link). Note that if you edit the Form HTML you can no longer add new elements with the Wizard.

I don't know whay there isn't a Dynamic CC or BCC box :-( My Email [GH] action (see here) does have one and is a bit more flexible.

I think that it is possible to use Static and Dynamic together (it certainly is in the Email [GH] action).

Is there anyway to get the captcha image bigger? its really smal know.

Hi Fulleffect,

In the Load Captcha action configuration set it to 'With fonts support'.

Hi Bob,

I don't know whay there isn't a Dynamic CC or BCC box

Actually I have added this to RC2.0, I needed it while building some form😀

There is a new GPG encryption feature for the email as well!

Thank you in advance for your help! Ever feel like you're soooo close to getting it right but there's a simple step you're missing?

I'm on Joomla 1.6 and the new V4 RC 2.0

I have followed the 3 steps shown in this post. I have also moved the e-mail plugin above the chronoforms pluging and set the captcha to "with fonts". Event loop for Fail is set to OnLoad and "yes".

My issue: Even when I put in the correct captcha, it still shows my validation text "Please try again. Wrong verification code". With debug feature in there, I see:

Couldn't find the captcha field value in the $_POST array!

I sure hope the debugging information helps find the resolution.

Thanks,
Mary

Hi Mary,

Hard to diagnose without seeing the form :-(

Please take a Form Backup using the icon in the Forms Manager and post it here (as a zipped file) or PM or email it to me and I'll take a closer look.
