trying to get Display Message to work in v5

Wedgels 07 Jan, 2015
I am trying to get the Display Message action to work in v5 on an email submit. The form simply redisplays the original page without the message.

I think it is a similar problem described here: http://www.chronoengine.com/faqs/57-cfv4/cfv4-actions/2653-how-can-i-show-a-thanks-message-if-i-use-the-plug-in-or-module.html

but this is for v4 and I am not sure how to do this on v5 as I cannot convert the Custom Serverside Validation code to something that works with the Event Switcher in v5.

Help!

Hi Wedgels,

I don't understand your problem (in practical terms) in theory I think I realized.
You can post the link of the form, so I test it?

Sure - http://arranselfcateringholidays.co.uk/book-now.html

When you click submit it should come back with a 'Thank you' message - but instead it just reloads the original page - which you will see when you submit the form.

Thanks. 🙂

Hi Sam,

It shows a thanks message "Thank you for your booking. We will be in touch shortly.".
It's this that you want to show or is there something else?

Thanks!

I didn't see it hidden away in the middle of the text! I was expecting something like Chronoforms 3 where the whole page was reloaded with just the the thank you text.

I will pace it out and make it bigger - thank you. Sometimes it just needs a second pair of eyes.🙂

Hi Wedgels,

I believe that you have your form inside an article, so it will show the article plus the message.
You right, some times, some times it's just a other look, we that are always see the same result, some times don't see what is next front of us :p
Believe, I understand you :p

Don't forgot to mark the topic as solved😉
