I have been trying to get forms set up to no avail. Chronoforms5 and 4 don't work. In chronoforms 4 I receive this error when I view the form from the backend "View" Link.

Not only that but I tried the Chronoforms4 module and when I enter the form name and set it to display on a page nothing but the title and the link show up.

I am also getting a error on the backend when after saving a form

I am using a helix II template.

On a side note I also tried Chronoforms5 and although there was no error. My forms would not appear on the page. All that displays is the link and title just like Chronoforms4.

Hi rodopemu,

Looks as though you are running locally on Xampp and have your PHP Error reporting set higher than you need. Try setting it to System Default or None in the Site Global Configuration.

The first DS message can occur if you run the Joomla! 2.5 or earlier versions of CF on Joomla! 3 (which no longer defines DS for you).

The second message is from your template and is probably because ChronoForms or Joomla! is trying to display some kind of system message.

Thanks. for your help on this. I have been trying many extensions and they all seem to have a bug. None of the other forums seem to be of help. Anyway, I migrated to a live server and the errors have gone away. However I still can't get the forms to show up on a page.

Thanks Greyhead,
I figured it out through the FAQ, I just had to put the showhtml in the onload section.
