                    CFv4 Unique ID [GH] action

                    CFv4 Unique ID [GH] action

                    This is a new custom Unique ID action for ChronoForms v4 that generates a unique random ID for a record to be saved into a database table.

                    • The ID is usually a short-alphanumeric string like XY9856G that can easily be written down if needed. When it generates the ID the action checks the database table to ensure that it is not already in use.
                    • A key advantage of random string IDs is that unlike serial numbers they are very difficult to predict and so provide an additional level of security to your records.

                            Note: This action is for ChronoForms v4 only; it should work with both the Joomla! 1.5 and  1.6/1.7/2.5 versions.

                            To install this action please us the Install Actions icon in the Forms Manager toolbar in ChronoForms v4 RC3.,0 or later. (Or you can unzip the file and copy the files to the administrator/components/com_chronoforms/form_actions/unique_id_gh folder on your site.)

                            This is a new custom Event Switcher action for ChronoForms v4 that allows you to run different actions depending on the form data.
                            • The Event Switcher has four events A, B, C, and D. If the action code returns 'event_a' then Event A is enabled and any actions you drag to Event A will be run, if 'event_b' is returned then Event B is enabled and so on.
