New form by Joomla custom html form

Hi,

I am writing to ask for help on ChronoForms V5

I would like to:

1) Create a new module using Joomla! custom html module. In this form I set different fields (name, date of birth, address, e-mail, etc.)
2) User compiles this form from a page in website to make a subscription
3) To confirm subscription, user (in the same module) can pay with PayPal or credit card.
4) When user has paid, he sees a web page with a message that the subscription is ok
5) User receives an e-mail that contains the form that the user has filled in pdf format

It is possible to do by Chronoforms?

I hope that my explanation is ok. Thanks.

Hi giuxmian,

Yes you can do that with ChronoForms except that you need to use the ChronoForms module not the Joomla! custom html module.

This is quite a complex form, you should build it step by step checking each part as you go. Start with a form that collects the data you need and sends a simple email. Then add the PDF using the ChronoForms TCPDF action; then add the PayPal payment option.

Hi Bob,

thank you very much for your answer.

I've created a table with Dreamweaver and I've copied html code in a ChronoForms form. If you want I can post Html code.

So, I'd like to know how I can integrate it with ChronoForms TCPDF action (I've just installed it) and PayPal payment option.

Thanks a lot.

Hi Bob,

I've another question for you.

By Html code, how I can add a button "SEND" to register data?

Hi giuxmian,

I'm sorry I don't' understand your question :-(

If you want to change the name of the Submit button you can do that in the element settings.

Hi Bob,

ok, I try to explain better my question.

In a new Chronoforms form, I've copied Html code of a table I've created by Adobe Dreamweaver. Then, I test my Chronoforms form and it's ok.

Now, I'd like to do these steps:

1) In the bottom of table I want to create a button that, when the user clicks it, it saves the data that the user has entered and redirects it to PayPal page for payment

2) When user has paid with PayPal, I would like that user receives an e-mail with a PDF attachment that contains the data that he has included in the ChronoForms Form

Thank you very much.

Hi giuxmian,

You need to redirect the user to PayPal at the end of the On Submit action, not directly from the form.

If you want to be able to respond to an accepted payment then you have to use one of the more advanced PayPal payment methods that offer Instant Payment Notification.

I don't now exactly how the CFv5 PayPal actions work but I think that you will need the PayPal Listener set up to 'listen' for the PayPal Notification, then you can retrieve the saved transaction information from a database table, construct the PDF and email the user.
