Backup and restore a form

Hubers 14 Nov, 2014
I created two forms on my notebook in Chronforms v5.0.2 and made a backup of them. Now I went to my desktop and installed Chronforms 5.0.3 and restored the previous backup forms made with version 5.0.2. This went well without any issues. I can see and edit the forms, but when I would like to use them I get the following error.

Form not found or is not published

Can somebody pls tell me what I did wrong or what I forgot todo?

Hi Hubers,

When you restore them they are unpublished. Just click the Publish buttons in the forms manager and reconnect any database load or save actions and all should be well.

Hi GreyHead,

thx for the answer. I open Chronoforms and push at publish see attachment and it works fine. Just one form did show up but I first will check if the config is OK. Thx for your quick reply.

I am having the same problem, but the form is showing published. I just recently updated Chronoforms to v5 and using Joomla 3.3.3 I can see the form when I test it, but can not get it to work from a menu position. I have looked and looked for the answers, but can't seem to find the right one. The link is

Hi Ron,

Did you enter the form name in the menu item settings ?
