convert from J2.5 to v4

deafbiz 26 Nov, 2011
I loved the ancient J2.5 Chronoform. Alas, I have to upgrade my website to J1.7 and there's no legacy plugin. I'm having a challenging time converting J2.5 to v4 or even to start from scratch and I'm hoping there's someone available to do for a small fee (this is a non-profit school). There's 5 forms, two are nearly similar and one requires saving to a db with SSL. If you want to see the forms in action, I'll send you the links. I'll pay via PayPal.
Thank you.

Hi,

Did you try to give V4 a go ? the forms will need to be remade on V4 but this should be too hard, you can use the same old forms HTML/PHP code but just place it correctly under the new interface, please check the Video or PDf tutorials we have for V4 and let us know if you have any problems.

Regards,

Yes, I gave it a go. I had to wait at least a day after the bug fix, and then I saw that the admin email is no longer on the reply to. So far, the recipient gets the correct reply to, and the visitor only gets the reply to the Admin, not recipient, but I think it'll do for now.

I was able to create the rest of the forms quickly. v4 is much better than v3.

Just have to figure out how to adjust HTML because the fields are too far apart to fill out.

Thanks for the follow up.

Hi DeafBiz,

There's a 'Tight Layout' setting on the Wizard 'Form Settings' tab that might do what you need.

Just tested. Confirm that "tight" solved the layout issues. Many thanks!
