Forum Post Assistant - If you are serious about wanting help, you will use this tool to help you post. Post by avi2l » Wed Aug 29, pm Hi, I have come to the point where I will be creating some form submissions for my site. I have read about Facile Forms and Fabrik. From my understanding, people prefer Fabrik, or say it is more advanced.
However, Facile Forms has plentiful of free support and information. So my question is, for someone who is gonna start with a new component, is it worth it to pay for the support for Fabrik, or is Facile Forms good enough to get me through.
I firmly believe that the proper financial model for the supporting casts of any truly OpenSource project is 'donation' in cash or kind from those who use them. If you don't believe me, ask the MySQL Core team about the upheaval that erupted in the aftermath of its acquision by Sun, and subsequently by Oracle.
This is systems analysis, pure and simple! Granted, these criteria may not be the same as I or anyone else might have used, but they are objective, and they are consistent. Besides, the point of this exercise is not to recommend one over the other. It is precisely to point out some of the shortcomings of extensions in the test group, which can help us all make a more informed decision.
That's a real time-saver, especially for those of us perpetually pressed for time or have no idea where to start. Now, some have commented on this blog that certain worthy candidates, such as BreezingForms, were not included in the test group.
To the best of my knowledge, BreezingForms is not free, and, on that basis alone, fails to meet the criteria outlined at the outset. I happen to use BreezingForms and find it to be quite capable. It has an impressive set of functional attributes. And, more importantly, it is stable. Regrettably, however, other than in QuickMode, it is far more complicated to use than it needs to be.
It is unbearably slow, documentation is lackluster and grossly outdated, and support is virtually nonexistent. All in all, BreezingForms has real potential. Sadly, so much of it is lost in translation. It remains to be seen if the authors will take the initiative to clean things up. If it isn't obvious by now, I'm not exactly thrilled to discover that the extension I paid for is less than desirable in so many respects.
Had I read this blog sooner, I might've made an entirely different decision. And that's precisely the point. I think we can all agree that OpenSource is the greatest thing since Microsoft.
But there is also no denying that its one Achilles' heel is arguably the virtual absence of an independent, qualitative clearing-house. I truly hope that this individual effort is the beginning of a new movement afoot to inch the community ever closer to that ideal.
The Joomla! Core team can't do it all alone. It's up to the rest of us to chip in and help in whatever we can. I just wrote and posted a reveiw of BreezingForms. Hello: I came across this thread and thought I'd let you know about an extensive review I've posted for BreezingForms. I mostly cover QuickMode, but I do detail some issues I encountered with client-side Javascript timeouts when trying to deploy forms above a certain level of complexity.
This is the number one issue I encountered. Firm Body Sculpting System says Wow! You did a great job. All the extentions that you explored Couldn't have done it better myself. Proforms is the best solution. I checked almost all form components and Proforms is the best. There are a lot of form components listed at Joomla's Extension Directory.
Only Chronoforms and Mad4Joomla are fine. The flaw of RSForms is that it is really old fashioned. If you run Joomla 1. All of the rest is made by home brew coders not knowing what they are doing. Hi, At first thank you for the useful info. Can you help me? Artforms no more? Did anybody look at LFRM? Seems very powerful but steep learning curve. Complete application generator. But too complicated for my purposes Artform has been unpublished.
So wats next. MBT Sport Shoes. Wearing MBT Sandals Shoes this summer on the feeling of home, because the work needs, party needs, every time fiercely discard high heels, MBT Walking Shoes rubbing suffered a torn ankle were hurt, too much reliance on high heels Oh, also no good ankle.
Forms and Joomla session time. Does anybody know which of these form components is not affected by the Joomla session time. I had a terrible experience with aicontactsafe. I had created a long survey form in aicontactsafe and a number of my users were spending over an hour filling the form which was longer than the Joomla session time.
When they submitted the form they would get a session timeout message and lose everything that they had entered. Very frustrating for them. Can't understand why a form needs to bother about the session. Hmm - good program, but how to create more than one field? Regards imtiyaz. Have you heard abou JUser? Hi "Webmaster", thanks for the article, but I'm still in doubt which one to use. Since your article, have you found another great component?
Have you heard about JUser? The ArtForm was removed from Joomla library I think it was due vulnerability. Thanks in advance. ArtForms is super but unfortunately no longer supported. I even made a donation to Gonzalo, but never got the least feedback. I have been searching for such a key application as forms for Joomla and am still surprised that no one has yet developed a stable, simple and basic extension for making forms.
A pity that no one has yet worked on improving and eliminating the few remaining flaws from ArtForms. It is very helpful. Breezing Form win among all of them from my own perspective having tried a few. My new favourite is Proforms Basic. Mooj has published a free version of Proforms. If you don't need database function this is the right form.
Very very easy to use, great looking forms and for FREE! The article is good I like this post! My accurate review of this product was deleted from the JED. Never again will I leave a review, positive or negative on the JED since they are clearly playing favorites with certain developers who are friends of the moderators. I'll post it here and see if it sticks. I too, would like to know of a good Forms extension for Joomla that is recent and decent.
Cons: There are two parts to commercial extensions on the JED. One is the product itself, and the other is the support. I didn't get so far as to get it working after all of the system error emails I received after installation, but what I did get to experience very much, even more so than I wanted, was the "support.
The Developer clearly does not understand how to use the recording software to properly demo his extension. Many, if not all of the menus are off screen and can't be seen during the demo.
The product he's using to demo is top notch and has the ability to "zoom and move" along with the mouse, but I suppose he didn't take much time to learn how to use it. During the video, his phone rings at least on two different occasions while totally interrupting the tutorial.
I believe the developer needs a tutorial on how to mute his cell phone. I mean, who does that during a tutorial? If you have any problems with the VAT charged or not being able to complete your purchase simply contact us on Support.
