Hi,

I have created custom user registration form using chronoform (reference CFV4_joomla_registration.pdf) in which the data is entered by site admin. Once the new user is created a mail will send to the user and using the joomla login user will be able to login to my site. In my userform using the DB Record Loader I am passing the cf_uid and Request Param as "token" as mentioned in the CFV4_db_record_loader.pdf tutorial. While login to the site how to pass/get the cf_uid token in login redirect? Without passing the param user form is not populating with data retrieved from database.Could you please help me to resolve this issue asap?

Hi Rajan,

If you want to identify the record by user then I would use the User ID as the identifier, not the long random string. I just posted another reply on this in this thread

Hi Bob,

Thanks for your quick reply. I tried the logic which you have mentioned in the other post. My issue is initially as the new user is created by admin "cf_user_id" is getting updated with admin userid. But in the joomla user manager section id is updating properly.

I have couple more queries.

#1. How to make a textbox readonly (disabled)?
#2. Based on database value how to set the default value for radiobutton and dropdown? For example, I have a "Gender" radiobutton and while retrieving the data radiobutton is not getting selected. Same with the dropdown control.
#3. Can't we set other field as primarykey other than cf_id?

Hi Rajan,

ChronoForms automatically adds the current user ID into the cf_user_id column; you'd need to use a second query to update it if you need some other value (like the newly created user id); or use a different column to record the new user id.

1. Please see this FAQ about readonly settings. Or use a Custom Element element.

2. The Radio buttons should auto publish. Please drag a Debugger action into the On Submit event, then submit the form and post the debug results here.

3. Yes, as long as it has a unique integer value.
