Thanks to the download with the new php file that allows the redirect url to work and also to save the data, things are working better. The only problem is that the checkbox data from my form is not saving in the saved data record. It is included in the e-mail and the other form types are being saved, but I can't figure out what I need to do differently to save the checkbox data. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Natalie,
There's no URL for your form there. It sounds as though the checkboxes are returning an array that isn't being exploded before being saved. The latest version of ChronoForms does that automatically, earlier versions didn't.
Please see this post for the code to add. (That whole thread looks at problems with select box data but the answers apply to checkboxes as well.

Sorry. I thought I included the url. Here it is: http://vote4pete.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=47&Itemid=57
I tried using the implode code from the other thread, but just received a parse error on the form. I'm sure I'm doing something incorrectly. I have pretty limited experience with forms and even less with php.
I really appreciate your quick help on this!

Hi Natalie,
The form looks OK and the checkbox data ought to save. Please take a Form Backup from the Form Manager and post it here or email it to the address in my sig so that I can look at the whole form.

Hi Natalie,
They aren't being saved because they aren't in the AutoGenerated code that does the databse saves.
Did you add these fields to the form after you created the table?
If you have no valuable data yet, the simple answer is to delete the database table = probably joc_chronoforms_1; delete everything in the Autogenerated code tab, save the form, then click the 'Create data table' link and start with a fresh table.

I did do a lot of adjusting to the form after I created the table, so that's probably what caused the problem. I ended up just starting from square one and created a whole new form and then created the table. Now everything is working great and all the data is being exported.
Thank you so much for a wonderful component and for the amazing support services! I really appreciate it!
