This is a note of reported bugs in ChronoForms v4 RC 2.0

[list=a]

Bizzynate reported that some new attributes in the HTML make the code fail W3C validation. See this post.

And three more HTML problems here.

The default value setting for a radio box group doesn't work. Fix is here

If there are two DB Saves in the same form linked to different tables then the second one will not save. Fix is here

There are several reports of problems with the Captcha never accepting correct entries (see here for example); and with Captcha failing after a switch from Easy to Advanced Wizard (see here). No fixes for these so far.

[ Fixed in RC3.0 ] Lowkyrun noticed that the Data Republisher fails when textareas contain '$0' . . . '$9'. See this post for a fix.

[ Fixed in RC3.0 ] Castagnier found and fixed a problem with republishing results from check-box groups, Aardvark found a similar problem with multi-select boxes. Fixes for both are here.

[ Fixed in RC3.0 ] The Email action has a small problem. If there is more than one email action only the debug messages for the last one display.

It's not possible to get vertical checkbox or radio button groups to align with other form elements. There is a fix here.

[ Fixed in RC3.0 ] The Auto-serverside validation action incorrectly adds a 'required' vaidation to most checks. See this post

The File Type list in the File Uploads action is case sensitive so you need e.g. both JPG and jpg to be included.

There is a Joomla! bug that adds the admin email address to any Reply To email address used. (the bug has been reported). See this post for a description and fix to the Joomla! code.

There is a Joomla! bug that gives a "Language string failed to load: invalid_address" message. Please check that the From email address in the site Global configuration matches the site domain. I found a workaround here on the RS Forms site; and a discussion in the Joomla! forums here

[ Fixed in RC3.0 ] The Captcha verification will always fail if the name of the Captcha input is changed. The fix is to make the input readonly or better to change it to a hidden input. In administrator/components/com_chronoforms/form_elements/input_captcha.php at line 27 replace 'type' => 'text' with 'type' => 'hidden' (and for the id on line 28).

There is a bug in the event labelling of the DB Record Loader action; the two 'On Fail' events are reversed. Please see this post for a fix and more info.
