Hey I was having the same problem. After checking the post and sleeping I figured out if you're doing the preview button it only does just that. Duhh:S I didn't figure that out until I slept on it. After I created a link to the form from a menu item everything worked fine. I'm using J1.5 so the link was easy, you'll need to know the form id from the form list.

Hope this helps.

Doesn't anybody have an answer to this question yet?

I need to hardcode some absolute links to a couple of my forms and the path needs to be (native Joomla) SEF pathway.

This path will get me to my ID1 form, but the same numeric logic doesn't get me to my other five forms;

http://localhost/component/forme/1.html (directs to form ID1)

http://localhost/component/forme/2.html (ALSO directs to form ID1)

So what's the correct SEF path structure for rsForm links, and are there any plans to add a...

For a menu item to open a form, you need to create a NEW>LINK URL>link to form (available in your admin page.)

As for your code, it looks fine. I believe it was you that was asking about the helper text box? Just remove the <span>{fielddesc}</span>

if you won't be using any helper text.

Hi dniezby, really appreciate your kind answer and I am a css newbie. I will try to correct my forms according to your instructions.
The FORM STYLE code is:
<div id=\"myform\">

OOOOh..

Ok, so you're using the same form on different pages of your site? So you're using the {mosforme #} plugin to embed the form?

Hmm...Well, what I would do is make multiple forms. This way you don't have to create any scripting to see what page the form was sent from.

It's easy to do.

Simply create your first form.
Create a hidden field (sentfrom) and assign it a default value. EG: home
Go to your list of completed forms, click the checkbox and select COPY from the menu.
Now go to...

To create a menu button to your form.

Go to your list of forms. Copy the FORM LINK.
Go to MENU and create a new menu item.
Select URL LINK for the menu item
Paste the link to your form.
Save.
Menu Item created.

To embed a form into your content areas:

In the backend, go to Support>Files
Download the mosforme plugin for your version of Joomla.
Install the Mambot.
Publish the mambot
Go to your list of forms and note the form's number.
Go to your content where you want the form.
Place this...

You didn't Publish the form.

Also, it would appear that you're creating the menu item incorrectly.

Go to your list of forms and copy the FORM LINK to the form you want to add to the menu.
Close that component and go to the MENU options.
Choose the menu you want to add the form to.
Select NEW MENU item.
Select Link-URL
Paste the FORM LINK in the appropriate box.
Publish the menu item.
Save

I suspect something is wrong or i'm just not seing something here ?

I installed and updated my RSForm component, then I created a new (simple) test form with a single name field. Lastly, I created a menu of RSForm type.

I get a 404 - Component Not Found page when trying to access it ?

Note that no where does it allow me to specify which form to display in the menu ?

Any help would be appreciated!

Hello,

I have been waiting for Joomla 1.5 support to try RSForm out but after doing that, i noticed that the way you can view the results from the component menu isnt that great.

I was wondering if there is an easy way to view results from 1 of them forms, where everything submited shown clearly in a page with sorting or numbers and so on.

I dont like to see \"Check1\" \"Check2\" in the viewing page, instead i want to see the info shown .


Is there a way to do...

Hey Xpresso,

In case it's a joomla error, give this a try:

1. Publish the mambot,
2. Publish the link display module in an \"unused\" position,
3. Make a content item posting with the tag: {mosloadposition user1}
-Where user1 is the unused position I've published it to.
4. Make sure the module is referencing Tags for Actual field names you've used in your form.
5. Create a menu item link to that content item, and then
6. Go back into the module again and set the \"Menu Item...

Hi Notion,

i am working on the manual also. I wanted to write it with the new RSform! 2.0 i am working on, since there will be many functionalities coming up..

Yes, it is correct. It depends where you place the text. If you place it in the description textarea, then the syntax is:

<tr><td valign=\"top\" width=\"100%\" colspan=\"3\">{fielddesc}</td></tr>

if you place it in the Default Value text, then the syntax would be:

<tr><td...

All of your questions can be found in this forum already, however:
- for samples urls pls search this forum also you can load the sample data which will add one form once you have loaded the component

Step 1: Simply create a new form from within the forms menu - you only need to enter the two fields Form title and form name.
Step 2: Save
Step 3: Once saved, edit the form and start adding new fields (the button...

Hi sidraseomind,

1. Please do this: Go to Menu > Mainmenu > New, select Link - URL from the options, then in the next screen paste the link index.php?option=com_forme&fid=2 and give it a name. I have not tested RSform! with Artio SEF yet. I'll try making it compatible with all the major SEF components in the next version.

2. From what i see, your forms have some particular layout. You can change the layout of rsform, and each field's html layout can be changed. You have to know...
