Validation not working since Chronoforms V5

chris_e 05 Apr, 2015
Greetings and thanks for a great component with a vibrant community! :-)

I have just upgraded my site from 2.5.x to 3.4.x (I know, I'm late) and made the jump from Chronoforms V3 to V5. In the old version I had no problem at all getting the validation working, e.g. only accepting a submit if all "required" fields are filled.

Since V5, I cannot get any validation at all. I have even tried to use one of the demo forms with validation ("demo-basic-contact"). Even there, validation does not work. So I guess it might be a more general issue.

I am running Joomla 3.4.1 and php 5.5.

As I have not found any helpful answers in the forum so far, I hope someone can help.

BTW: This is my form: http://www.rinkenklause.de/index.php?option=com_chronoforms5&chronoform=Belegungsanfrage

Thanks!

Hi Chris,

Your page has an old version of jQuery loaded by "phoca gallery", you need to either update phoca and hopefully that will update the jQuery OR use a plugin named "jQuery easy" which usually helps solving any jQuery conflicts.

Wow, this is just plain awesome! Got stuck, asked question, question answered, tried out, works, green button. Thanks.

Unfortunately, the new jQuery disabled one of Phoca Gallery's slideshows (Nivo), but I've found a way around that. Too bad that the most recent Phoca Gallery version seems to include an outdated jQuery version.

Thanks anyway, I am back up and running!

Great, you can post on the phoca forum to let them know about the outdated jQuery issue!
