SmartFormer 2.1 (J1.0, J1.5, J1.5 Legacy)
 Not as good as it was claimed to be, April 15, 2008

SmartFormer 2.1 (J1.0, J1.5, J1.5 Legacy) I purchased it a few days ago due to some good reviews but it seems to be very basic form component. It seems that they have not thought of many functions for example, your form cannot be posted into a module or embedded into a page. So basically all you can do is to put a link on the menu item for the form and it will appear on its own.

I wanted to do the following which I cannot do;

* I wanted to publish it in a module but it is not possible. So you are stuck to publish it from menu item and only in a central position

* Secondly, I wanted to embed it in the webpage so my other text and service/story etc could compliment the form but it is not possible. So I cannot have this form on the webpage but it can only appear by clicking a link on the menu item.

I sent two messages to support team with the above issues and the only reply I had was; it is not possible, Or they will keep it in mind for the next version, and finally they told me to upgrade it when they have the next version out. They did not offer any help to resolve the issues now when I needed it.

I cannot understand why this form component is listed as "HOT" when there is nothing hot about it.

So if you don't mind a simple form that is just linked to the menu item and cannot be published in a module or embedded within a page then go ahead and buy it. But if you want the flexibility then look elsewhere and let me know also if you find anything better.
