Hi,Themelis Cuiper here from
Amsterdam The Netherlands.


A question about cformsII.

I am my own dedicated webhost on Centos5 with Cpanel with php 4.3.3

I have copied the contactform into a second form name "signmeupscotty"
in this new form i named the formfield names and asigned database tracking
so the input gets into a database.

The data goes to the MySql tables
wp_cformsdata
wp_cformssubmission

it works ! Data gets in, but not how i expected.

I use the "Alexander" template
(which is before install a little misformed around the searchbox, no big deal).
The inputform appears on my sidebar1
as i go from admin into design>widgets

The forminput works and i get an autoresponder email that i submitted,BUT...
yes it looks but..and awfully jikes, i made a monster out of Alexander, this big
form deserves its own page.

So i make a new page, in the menubar i see "Sign me up for your teaparty" and i have a blank page.

I go to the page editor and use the TinyMCE Button.
(double checked if Button Support is enabled ),
select my new made form "signmeupscotty" and push "insert the form" .

I see signmeupscotty written in the top of the
visual tab of the editor, I can NOT look in the HTML portion !
i saved with publishdirect and visit the page... NOTHING, nada, zip, nop.


That i can't acces the HTML tab worries me ( is the plugin defect? )
When i login again and go to the editor i can see the HTML tab opened
a split second going back into visual mode.
Tried to tick off visual mode in the admin profile, i see a brushed down
version of the editor with huge square buttons, a button "html" pushing it
gives... NOTHING, nada, zip, nop only folowed this time by a greater portion
of silence and an upcoming aking pain in the chest from a rising panic attack.

Please tell me you have a solution ?

please come with a great answer,

Just like the Theminator , Ill be back.

Hello, Themelis Cuiper here from
Amsterdam The Netherlands.

Solution.
Found the solution and it has nothing to do with the WordPress blog admin or
the WordPressDirect management system.

It is Firefox, no actually it is ME trying to cramm tooo many SEO plugins into
the Firefox browser. (I luv those stuffies, im a linkamaniac).

Suddenly felt an urge by a naging idea to try the IE7 browser.
My internet explorer browser is not that crowded with add-ons.

Sweet people it works now,
the on website editor properties are driven by the browser.

Thank You for reading,
hope this helps other people too,

I think someone way more advanced than I will find this information extremely helpful.

Actually, my sites have been looking wrong in Flock. I am thinking there are a few too many SEO plugins in my Flock browser.
