Please replace the ??? with your data!


[desc]: I'm currently building a site using WordPress 2.5 (Breaker) and noticed that the Tell A Friend checkbox appears on the Posts section but not on Pages. A Tell A Friend key appears under the Custom values on Pages though.

I've check that I've enabled everything and have even checked the template I'm using for creating the Tell A Friend form. Everything seems to be in order - the cform id is 1 (as it's the only form there!) and the template is selected in the dropdown menu.

Any ideas why my form still won't show up - is it related to the checkbox on the Page admin screen?

Thanks for pionting that out. That's a bug, obviously another area that the WP.org developers touched without telling :-(...

I saw the unconverted <!--cforms--> tag in your code, which usually happens when users enter the tag in the visual editor mode. By what you wrote I understand you used the cforms dialog/form picker to add it this page, right?

Any other plugins that might interfere ?

PS: I can send you a v8.2 pre release that fixes the above and more, but re: the first issue, that's still a mystery.

Hi Oliver,

Yup, you're right - I used the visual editor to add this to the page. I've got CForms running on a couple of websites (and very nicely, thanks Smile ) with the same plugins on all of them (i.e. I managed to find things that play nice with each other), so I don't think it's a plugin issue. I try and keep the number of plugins used down as it's a maintenance nightmare otherwise!

Just to check, I've disabled *all* plugins except cforms II. The same thing happens - no "T-A-F" box on the Page admin screen. Custom fields have the "Tell-A-Friend" in the dropdown for the key. Still no T-A-F...

The code I'm using for the template is still:

&lt;?php if ( is_tellafriend( $_GET['pid'] ) ) insert_cform(1); ? &gt;

I've changed the number to 0, 1, 2, 3... still nothing.

The only thing that is different is actually the WordPress version - this is my first attempt at using WP2.5 and I think it's at the root of the problem. They probably have changed things that you're not aware of just yet!

And, yes - by all means, send over the beta version. My site is very new and not live yet, so it's a perfect time to break it Wink.

Thanks for your help on this Oliver - I really appreciate it.
