V5 bugs/issues?

emma.richardson 17 Jan, 2014
I am having issues with two things so far in Version 5.
Cannot get the Captcha image to load. This cannot be a server issue as the same form in V4 loads the captcha just fine.
Cannot get the validate:confirm feature to work. Imported the form from V4 - set up according to V4 instructions - do I need to change something in V5? I am using validate['confirm:email'] in the class box.

Hi Emma,

A lot has changed in CFv5 - including the way the Captcha is handled and the Validation library. I suspect that validate['confirm:email'] will no longer work. I've taken a quick look at the validation code and I don't see anything similar there :-( or any obvious way to add a custom validation.

Please post a link to the form so I can take a quick look at the Captcha problem.

Hi,

Regarding the validation, more validations rules are on the todo list including custom validation!

The captcha issue may be caused by 3rd party SEF extensions, if you have any enabled then please test with it disabled or set it to skip Chronoforms5

I disabled SEF to no avail. Trying to get an outside ip set up to get you a link to the form.

Hi Emma,

Please disable the SEF and test the form using the "view form" link in the forms manager, does it work ?

Oh, and it also does not enforce the setting - so I can submit the form with nothing in the Captcha entry box. Maybe because the Captcha isn't loading?

Is this form created using the wizard designer or a custom code ?

It was created in V4 and then imported in. I then tried removing the V4 captcha and replacing it with the V5. I am using the wizard. I also tried a brand new form in V5 and had the same issue.

Form can be seen here.

Do you have the "Load Captcha" in the "on load" event ?

Actually for some reason it wasn't there but I added it and no change. Sorry, been bouncing between my dev site and my soon to be live site with this. Only have the external ip to my dev site right now. I did make it a required field and that took care of the Captcha not being required. I also added the refresh button but that is not showing either.

Please try to clear your website's cache ? and please test the form using the "view form" link in the forms manager.

I had already done all of that on my live site. However, I tried again on my dev site and still no captcha. I actually have a Chronoforms user setup on my backend. I could send you that login info if that would help.

Ok, please send me the login by PM here or using the "contact us" page.

Hi Emma,

Just fixed this, in V5 you have to place the "Load captcha" BEFORE the "html" action in order for the captcha to be loaded before the form is rendered!

That makes sense. Thanks Max - any time frame on the validation scripts working in V5? For the confirm email and passsword fields?
