This really is one of the easiest and most intuitive form components for Joomla I have ever used. Styling looks like it is going to be time consuming, but that's my only complaint.

Very nice form component. Looks very clean and is very easy to use. Mebe for a future version: It would be great to have info/? baloon possebility.

This component has still some problems with SEO.

Overall by far one of the best ones!
Keep up the good work.

I hope I never have to use Chronoforms again. JForms is sooo much more intuitive! And the 0.6Beta allows CSS styling and exporting. Plus, the database is designed right (unlike RSFormPro) so that each form has its own table, allowing for quick reporting of data. Where do I send my donation?

Well I thought this would be the winner but its not. Does have bugs.

When you view the forms on the front end the spacing is all messed up. The radio buttons smash into other fields.

When I try to go back to edit a form they would go missing but still show on the front end and in database.

Running Joomla 1.5.10

Need a free form creator... Joomla should include one in the next update. Tired of trying/demoing crappy add-ons.
It is a brilliant Forms component compared to the commercial products which are available. I also tried version 0.6 beta as well and it has further improvements to the whole component. But, it didn't work with SH404SEF. I am sure Mostafa is working on it.

No need to spend any money on commercial components when you have jForms.

Well Done Mostafa!!!
Excellent! Just Excellent.
Easy to Install and Easy to use without any complication. Everything in 1 panel. I had an urgent project and needed a form without any bugs cause I just did not have any time.

I took my chances on this and it paid off! Simply superb and works like a beauty!!

Thank you very much!!
I am a learner driver with Joomla and its associated plugins. I have tried a number of form plugins and found this to be the most simple to setup. I wanted a form for customers to upload photos. It is Very very intuitive. Have not figured out how to upload video files (If at all possible, as I received a 'Huge file' error) but I am still exploring the script and I reckon the developer will have a positive answer. Thanks, for saving me a headache.

I have Joomla 1.5.9 and downloaded JForms 0.5

reCAPTCHA works with that configuration. Just drag and drop the capthcha into the form area hi-lite it and the 'Element' section on the left has input boxes for the keys !!!!!!!!!!

Would have given it a top rating but for 2 drawbacks.

1. Conflicted with my go_vista_simple template (default). Ah well, I just chose another template for my default.

2. Can not re-align the captcha or the buttons horizontaly or verticaly. The demo shows it can be done horizontialy.

All in all I am keeping it !!!!!

Thanks.
I love this form creator when I can use it. Recently I was unable to use this on a site due to a clash with mod_nextevent, which is a shame. For all other sites a 5*, but for that site a 1*.

Thank you to the developer and forum members.
this extension is nice and easy.
but there are a several bugs.
therefore i vote this as good.
repair the bugs and you will get an excellent.

The extension is good but the Recpatch option does not work under Joomla 1.59

I posted on the JForm forum to ask how to get Recaptch to work since there is no Recaptcha plugin for Joomla 1.5x

Up till today, there has not been any response

If you look at my page, you'll see that the 5 stars rated extensions are very scarce.

Many times over I avoided using JForms. I don't know why. Today I decided to try it and remained stunned !

A clean and professional component. It is very useful! It covered 8 of my problems!

THANK YOU !

I'd been looking for a form creator for Joomla that was simple and efficient. I've found it in Jforms! I had an error when submitting the form on the front end, but found an answer at the bottom of the following link.

I hope this helps someone else who may experience the same thing. Nice job and thank you for a great extension!
bynoartclub on March 10, 2009
very cool it easy make form i use few minute make job form
I was looking for a simple form system for our community website.
This is just simple and works and is simple in learning. You don't need any programming knowledge.
Great job and as it is still officially in development we may expect great things.
byjeff21up on March 5, 2009
As some others have pointed out, doesn't display in your template but on a blank white page. Would not show a submit button either. The demo video has no sound and freezes after a couple of seconds
bycwwhiting on March 4, 2009
I needed a simple form program. JForms fit my needs perfectly. Installation totally painless. Learning curve totally reasonable. Results are perfect.
byclickdriven on February 25, 2009
I have used many form components over the years, this is the best one.

Great work Mostafa, and thank you!
bydraki80 on February 22, 2009
Very good and easy to use component. Bravo!!!
Theres a lot to like, but this isnt RC2 quality. I couldnt initially get it to save a form, then did. I couldnt get it to display with my templated style, then it did then it stopped. I couldnt place content with precision on the drawing surface. And I couldnt figure out how to add a captcha api key or why my submit button disappeared and wouldnt come back. If those things worked this would be awesome. But its not.
