Add additonal Module/script to form?

Riceman 28 Jan, 2012
I have a Chrono form that when submitted properly it takes you to another form that allows for uploading/resizing pictures. Is there a way to have this second form (a separate script/module) included in my ChronoForms form? Or maybe a way to tag the 2nd form subject with the same field I am using in the dynamic subject of the first form? I realize this is a separate script...but though I would ask the Grand Form Wizards at ChronoForms!๐Ÿ™‚

Here is the detail of the module that I am referring to:

mod_simplefileuploadv1.3
and here is a link to the developers site if you need it:

Thanks for your help

Hi Riceman,

There isn't any way to easily add a module to a form - though you could probably hack the module code and use that.

The easiest solution is probably to use the image resizer that is built into ChronoForms.

Thanks...but this script does a lot that i need,ajax uploading, it resizes, allows for simultaneous upload of a large number of files, and most importantly, makes a directory based on the user name, and puts all the files in there.

I'll look into some other options.

Hello,

If I understand this correctly and you need to load a "Joomla Module" in your form then you can use the "Joomla plugins" action in your form and use the "loadposition" formula to load some module position.

And please note that a "form" inside a "form" will not work, if your module is loading form tags then make sure to use the "loadposition" formula in a "Custom code" action or whatever.
