Hello everyone,

I've been using CF/CC for 2 weeks now trying to build an idea that I have. My knowledge in code is very limited but I've been able to acomplish something thanks to CF/CC.

The problem that I have is although my CF/CC is working, when my CF filter connected with a DB through CC shows the table, shows it 2 times, like the pic attached

Hi SaLB,

No pic is attached, please try again.

Did you follow the tutorials under FAQs > CCv5 ?

Sorry, I'm trying to upload pics but I don't know what's happening....

I'm gonna try to explain it without images. My filter it's loaded in a sidebar, lets say position "1". Next to position "1" it's position "2", content. So, when I choose the fields in the filter and submit the result table shows in the both positions instead of just one, I mean, when I submit the filter, It shows the CC connection in the sidebar and in the content position.

Is there any option to choose where to load the CC table, like modifying a css?, It has to do with the joomla templates?

Thanks.

SLB

Hi SLB,

And how do you display the filter ? is it a CF form ?

Hi Max!

Sorry, but now I can upload images!

Yeah, the filter is a 3 dropdowns CF form connected through CC.

In the first pic you can see the filter in a sidebar of the template.
In the second pic, after submiting the filter, loads the table in the sidebar and in the content (I need it just in content)

This have to do with joomla templates or I can do something with CF/CC and choose where to load the CC form.

Thanks! (pics attached)

How did you connect the CF filter to CC ?

Also how do you have the CF filter form setup ?

My opinion is that the filter form should not have anything but 2 actions, the "HTML" action to display the form, and a "Redirect" action to redirect the form to the CC page and pass the filter fields.

You may also copy the form code and use it in your CC connection header, and get rid of the form completely.

Hi Max,

The CF filter has a DBread to load the values from the DB to the dropdowns, an HTML render and the connection action. I'm gonna try what you said, loading the CF code into CC and report back.

Thanks and regards,

SLB.

The filter form does not need a "Connection action", I think this is the problem, you can just use a redirect as I suggested OR you may change the "submit url" in the "HTML" action to point to the CC link.

Thanks for the reply Max.

I did what you said, but the problem is that the filter is not working now, and I don't know how it's going to work if there is no "connection" between the form providing the inputs to filter the CC, or maybe I'm missing something....

Thanks Max!, Problem solved!, you were right, there is no need for a CF/CC connection.
