RS Form Plugin Not Working...

It's likely I'm just missing the point here, that happens a lot, LOL!

OK, so RS Form Pro has a plugin that looks like this:

{rsform 2}

I thought I had set it up correctly, but it's not showing in the front (no title as well as no form).

In addition, when I save the field, the space is deleted from {rsform_, even though the "remove space" radio button is on "no."

I've attached two screenshots. One of the field. One of the front. It looks terrible, I know... It's a new version of a site with a new template. I'm hoping to use FLEXIcontent instead of K2, which the original BETA is running.

Thanks for any help you can offer! *smiles*

Hi and welcome,

Did you put the field in the template you use by the template manager?

Did you trigger content plugin and select the rs_form plugin for your field?

Does the plugin work in a standard joomla content?

I don't use this component and plugin so it's difficult to try (no trial or free version).

Regards

Code:
Did you put the field in the template you use by the template manager?

I did, yes, and I now have it showing.

Did you trigger content plugin and select the rs_form plugin for your field?


Yes. You can see that in my screenshot, attached.

Does the plugin work in a standard joomla content?


Yes, it does.

I don't use this component and plugin so it's difficult to try (no trial or free version).


I'm happy to give you (or anyone else) access to figure this out. I'm guessing I'm just not getting it.

*smiles*

Access alone will not enable diagnosis.

The plug-in itself would need to be examined.
Some plug-ins restrict themselves to being triggered in particular components, or views, etc.

Sometimes the fix is easy.
Sometimes the fix is more difficult.
Sometimes simply not possible without major modifications.

What do the folks who made the RS Forms extension say about FLEXIcontent support?
Since it is a commercial extension I assume they could give you an answer.

I'll ask them. *smiles*

If they do not support, is there a workaround, by taking the plugin apart and adding in the actual code?

Hi,
on the backend site view I see the mosrsform plugin, but there is one other plugin System - RSFormPro, and this one is not listed in only specific Plugins. I think you must enable both.

I did have both enabled and working in my content. I have just decided to go ahead and use the form directly linked to the menu for now.

It's not my highest priority.

Perhaps I'll come back to this later.

Oh, and I talked to RSFormPro, and they we quite unhelpful. I lost patience, and I don't do that easily.

*sighs*

I don't quite understand. Are you trying to get the form to work within a field, so you can call any form you want when you create an item by just putting the ID? or just trying to get {rsform 2} to work in flexicontents description?

RSForms does work fine in flexicontent, but it doesn't seem to work at all in 'select' fields (and it's not just the trailing space problem, though that will certainly break an rsform plugin) eg Even if you just list your select field elements as
{rsform 1}
{rsform 2}
{rsform 3}
It still won't work in item views (but does work in category views).

But, it does work just fine in plain text fields, and in wysiwyg text fields (even if you don't enable "trigger content plugins")

So unless you've got dozens of forms or need to force front end users to select from the available list, then this seems to be a pretty easy fix - just enter them manually.
