    Hi guys! grin
    I’ve been lurking around Modx for the last couple of weeks.

    I decided to use it for a website that I am working on...
    I’m more of a designer than a coder, but here are the problems...

    I have UniServer on my localhost machine...
    I can get Evo 1.0.0 working, but can’t get eForms to work properly!!!

    Is eForms supported in Evo 1.0.0 or not?!
    on the download repository it says 0.9.6!!!?

    So I decided to try to get some other versions of Modx to try with it....
    Boy that was a bad idea!

    NOW I’ve got this error...

    « MODx Parse Error »MODx encountered the following error while attempting to parse the requested resource:
    « PHP Parse Error »

    PHP error debug
    Error: Function split() is deprecated
    Error type/ Nr.: - 8192
    File: E:\UniServerSendme\www\manager\includes\document.parser.class.inc.php
    Line: 844
    Line 844 source: $tempSnippetParams= split($splitter, $tempSnippetParams);

      This happened after I installed Modx 0.9.6 to make sure
      I had support with eForm...

      Could somebody out there point me in the right direction...

      What my goal was/is to have a multi-form page for emailing from
      using checkboxes to load recipients
      and a cute site box for suggested comments.
      I thought that eForm would work nicely, as I could include the eForm2db snippet!

      Is PHPMailer needed, and what about the Freetype library support for Captcha?

      I would hate to have to drop this cool CMS....

        Well, I have managed to implement some of the features of the eForm package.

        I am still having problems testing out Revo, but that doesn’t matter so much now!

        I will plod on with implementing the eform features I need to on mysite,
        but I hope I don’t have too many more issues.


        huh huh huh

        • MODx 1.0.0 is the current stable release of MODx Evolution, and eForm should work just as well with it as it does with 0.9.6. I have no idea what UniServer is, but the first problem you reported is because you are using PHP 5.3 with E_DEPRECATED errors enabled.

          As you have not described your environment (PHP version, MySQL version, platform, etc.) or any of the actual problems you are having beyond that, it’s gonna be hard to help you.

          Also, just FYI, creating multi-page forms takes a bit of development skill and a good understanding of both MODx and eForm, but there are several threads available here that cover how to go about doing this with eForm.

            Thanks 4 your help...

            I found the E_DEPRECATED thing that gets turned off in PHP.ini!

            Just an update of where I am at with the eForm & eForm2db...

            I have a working contact form... WOO HOO!

            The main form I wish to use is not quite working...

            I need it to insert more email addresses into the &cc=`something`
            was using a [+placeholder+]
            in the snippet like this

            [!eForm? &formid=`sendmepol` &to=`[email protected]` &tpl=`esendmepol` &ccsender=`1` &cc=`[+emailcc+]` &report=`sendmepolreport` &thankyou=`sendmepolthanks` !]

            When I review the results...

            GoDaddys mail server has
            <"[+emailcc+]"@prod.phx3.secureserver.net>

            not the addresses I want!

            Eventually I need to save the whole message 4 review into the database
            then moderate and batch send the approved ones.

            Thanks Jason 4 such a great CMS... And all your support crew that is developing it!

            What a great community!
