"Demo" link needs to be updated. It incorrectly points to:http://communit...icenet.ne.jp

Lots of errors even when permissions were set.

I get this error when I try to add a form4. bp wrote on Feb 13, 2008 at 01:51 AM
Hi RaunchyDude,as we are using this module for a number of sites (including our own site) I feel that your comment is unhelpful and careless.
Reasons are:
1) you don't qualify your statement and thus it is meaningless
2) the module comes with documentation and contact mail address and it is probably not too much effort to contact the author if you can't get something working.

Hi Arthens,
unfortunately the 'page not found' error message pops up in a number of cases completely unrelated to the actual function being used.
From the error message I can't see what you were trying to do. Also the program name (line 137 of which program) is not shown. Did you read the manual?
The direct way to help is always to (1) read the manual and (2) contact the author.
Regards,
Bernd

Great.
Good to know that it is being actively developed. A replacement for simple use of the good old Formexpress/feproc seems to be in place.
I will test it in the coming time, since I have a number of registering forms (just like on the demo site) in pn764 now.

Both demo and download (http://www.choi...d_out&lid=28) links seem not to be working.8. espaan wrote on Mar 27, 2008 at 08:58 PM
Uhm what has changed? v0.5.2 was already out in January. Or did you adapt the download and demo link?

does this module replicate the functionality of the old FormExpress module? Can I build any form and send the contents somewhere?
10. bp wrote on Apr 10, 2008 at 10:02 AM
I never used FormExpress.You can build any Smarty form and send the content as message or as data to one or more recipients.
We moved to a new website recently and a number of downloads were broken; I sorted them out yesterday. In case of download problems please send a short mail.
Thanks for trying SendForm!

Demo and Download links are broken.
Server http://www.choicenet.ne.jp/ doesn't exist (strange though, looks like an ISP). BP, if the server is down there is not much point in sending an email to you, so I hope you'll accept this instead.

Downloads just fine for me.

Wendell, which download link do you use? The top-right-one? Or do you find it some where else?It still doesn't work for me, and the www.choicenet.ne.jp server also still doesn't exist for me. I am on another computer/network now, so it is not that. Maybe the domain is blocked from Denmark
