Hi,

I have updated the visforms to 3.10.1 and the joomla to 3.8.1

Everything seems to works, except I can't modify the forms any more. When I click a form, and the I click fields, it locks the forms and does not display the data.

help!

Thanks for your time!!

Hi,

have you cleared all caches (Joomla! cache and Browser cache) after the update?
I cannot reproduce the problem.
So if the problem remains after clearing the caches I can only help you, if I can look into your backend.
You could send me login information to contact@vi-solutions.de

Aicha

Hi,

thanks a lot for letting me take a look into this problem on your website. This was the only way I could ever have figured where this problem comes from and find out, that at least in some part it is cause by really sub-optimal implemantation in Visforms.

Basically the problem is, that with regards to the standard php setting of the max_input_vars of 1000 (which certainly should be enough) there were to many input parameters submitted with the POST. This was due to the fact that you have many user groups on your website which create lots of input parameters in the "permissions" tab.

I did not realize until now, that the permission setting actually are managed by Joomla! itself, using AJAX, to immediately store any change, without submitting the admin form at all. This is of course perfect, because it is actually not necessary to submit these permission settings with the POST at all.

I already improved the Visforms code and will release the changes with the next Visforms release. So you must not worry, that creating more user groups will cause more trouble in the future. I think, this Visforms release will come soon (maybe 1 week or two).

In the meantime, as a temporairy workaround you could increase the max_input_vars in your php.ini but this is of course only a work around and not a good solution.

Or you could apply the fix.

Open the file administrator\components\com_visforms\views\visform\tmpl\edit.php

Find the following code (line 42 - 45):
Code:
Joomla.submitbutton = function(task) { if (task == 'visform.cancel' || document.formvalidator.isValid(document.id('item-form'))) { Joomla.submitform(task, document.getElementById('item-form')); }

Replace it with
Code:
Joomla.submitbutton = function(task) { if (task == 'visform.cancel' || document.formvalidator.isValid(document.id('item-form'))) { jQuery("#permissions-sliders select").attr('disabled', 'disabled'); Joomla.submitform(task, document.getElementById('item-form')); }

Aicha

Hi,

just as an additional information.

I just found out, that it is only since Joomla! 3.6 that the permission tab settings are stored in the database using Ajax. So I will check in my fix for the proper Joomla! version, too. On Joomla! previous to 3.6 only the php.ini solution can be used.
