Datepicker and text mask does not work after update

How to fix datepicker and text mask issues after updating ChronoForms.

Overview

The problem is a JavaScript conflict, often caused by a template loading jQuery that interferes with Joomla's default jQuery.
Install the JQuery Easy plugin to manage jQuery loading, or contact your template provider to resolve the conflict. Ensure any custom JavaScript functions are error-free to prevent further issues.

- the javascript code is resent in html but won't be called.
- same procedure with several browsers (IE, Chrome, Firefox)

Any ideas?

thanks and regards

Hi Veikko,

Your page has a JavaScript error because your template loads jQuery and disables the one loaded by Joomla, you need to ask your template provider why this happens.

Or you may install a plugin named "JQuery easy", that may solve your problem quickly

I have a similar problem with mask "decimal" - I also updated to 5.0.9 and now it is not working anymore.
The desktop template does not use jQuery. I can't see relevant problems through web developer.

The text box code looks like this:

<input name="time_long" value="" id="time_long" placeholder="" maxlength="" size="12" class="form-control" title="Bitte verwenden Sie statt des Kommas (,) einen Punkt (.)!" style="" data-inputmask="'alias' : 'decimal'" data-load-state="" data-tooltip="Bitte verwenden Sie statt des Kommas (,) einen Punkt (.)!" type="text">

I also tried validations, it doesn't work.
I installed jQuery easy (in the settings I put the paths to cegcore/assets/bootstrap/jquery?) - nothing.

What can I do?

Thanks in advance.
(Concerning page has restricted access, therefore no link).

Hi FenFire,

All of these things work in 5.0.9 and Joomla! 3.4.1 as far as I have seen. The most likely answer is a JavaScript problem of some kind.

If you are using jQueryEasy I would suggest that you point it to the default Google download location as there is a fair chance many users will already have this cached.

Okay, okay, that's my mistake. Something in a JS function was wrong - thanks for the hint. I deactivated jQueryEasy again because it destroys mobile view.
