ChronoForms
For a new website I started with Joomla 1.6. Since there are not much formeditors yet for Joomla 1.6 AND since Chronoforms has good reviews I decided to give it a try.
Installation was easy.
Setting up the first form was a bit tacky but manageable.
Then sending the form as a test and all I received by e-mail was " You may customize this message under the "Template" tab in the Email settings box." It took me hours to find out that an 'emailtemplate' needs to be created before you can receive the content of a form. Even more crazy is that this template needs to be written in HTML.
Why do I use a formeditor? Because I don't know any codelanguage so I therefore I rely on wysiwyg software.
What do I want to receive from my visitors? The input my visitors fill out in the fields I created. Yes, I am a codedummy.
Then WHY do they expect me to start struggling with stupid code again?
I will not use this formeditor. It is not finished yet.
Appointment
I agree with previous posters. One should expect to get more for that price. So please build in the posted requests. Next to that setting up your own schedule where you admit people to schedule an appointment should be more advanced. Now you can enable times for just one day and after saving, you pop back to the current day. Pretty annoyinng if you are planning your own appointment schedule months ahead. You need to go back for every day/time you want to enable/disable. It would be good to have the possibility to set admitted appointment hours for more then just one day at a time. Like disabling all weekends at once.... or open for appointments every working day from ..hour to ..hour.

I never got an answer to an email I sent for this request.

Please don't stop developing but prepare a free update for paying customers when you are ready.

Thanks
