It turned out, that the BreezingForms component stores a reference to the calling component in a hidden form field(what an idea...).
And that reference is false, com_content instead of com_flexicontent.

I can't tell wether that is a matter of FC, JoomFish, or the form component.

Anyway, they stopped to answer about the issue, no more reaction. Some people just can't handle critics.

Its not the first time I have issues with them. I've been using it for almost 10 years now, since it came out as FacileForms. I think I paid like 5 times for it in all those years.

Its an unbelievable pile of spaghetti code in the meantime. Since they started to put jQuery on top of all the crap things got even worse. Forms were not submitted. They came out with a plugin that disables the cache for the form page, avoiding an error, not fixing it. On another bug one of my servers got hacked, and so on. With the latest update the form translation with JF is not accessible anymore, they just dropped support without a note. Asked about the issue- no answer.

If you think its an error in BF, I will ditch it for good. I already wanted to get rid of it with this project, but out of convenience I kept the form I already had.

What other form component would you recommend for multi-lingual frontends?

I wanted to give Proforms a try, anybody checked that out?

Hello, i can not comment on this one, i have not reviewed BreezingForm,

i use CKforms, it a quite good and intuitive,

but the bad seems not to be actively developed and no J2.5 version has been made either.

i am thinking of forking this component ... and including it in FLEXIcontent ...

I tried CK Forms now. The backend flashes some error all the time I'm saving a form, but too short to read it.
I actually haven't had the time to dig deeper. And as it is not maintained I dropped it.
If it would be part of FC it could be great.

So I went on and am currently checking out Chronoforms.

The backend interface is awesome, Mootools based and with a lot of elements available.

I'll give it a try now and will keep updating on the outcome.

Hello !
I raise this post because i get exactly the same error on a website !
I tried to change the script to redirect to a specific page without success.
Since this post, is there some change made in Flexicontent about this issue ?

Thanks :)

Hello

we have no control over 3rd party code
what can we do about it ?

it must be investigated by the author of the component, and in the rare case that it is related to FLEXIcontent we can examine making the fix that the author suggests

Regards

Hello :)
I completly and fully agree with you about third party component : you cannot manage problems with codes from others !

As i wrote, i was just wondering if there is something found about theses problems as i find this today on a website but with the exact same configuration (same version of Joomla, FC, Breezing Forms on another website) other website works well.
The only post i saw on the web for this issue is here so again, i was just asking if somebody has a clue unstead the classic response "change for something else"..
And again, ggppdk, you are always here for everybody, and you will never be thanks enough for that, and you can't carry all the problem of everybody (really, you can't help all the world in trouble ? ;) )

Best wishes,
Chabi01
