Hi, I’m trying to get the Forms to Go security question working. Everything seems to be setup as per the one video instruction on YouTube and the base Forms to Go form created using Dan Jasker’s excellent instructions at Bebo Soft.com.
I put an html field, or Insert html markup with the Forms to Go script:
I don’t see the security question in Preview or when viewed in various browser on my local computer. The website is not yet hosted… should it show the security question? or does it need to be live/hosted?
Any suggestions or complete work through instructions would be most appreciated! It always seems to be one step or something missing in instructions that trips me up.
Thanks - Lewis
Hi DeltaDave - thank you!
You’d think software makers would include important information like this in their instructions. Only one sentence would have saved me a whole bunch of time. - “This isn’t going to work locally.” - All I ask for if someone makes software, or an action, that they document how to utilize it, and not leave out steps or important information!

The video does discuss uploading to the server, but neglects to mention that you’d not be able to preview any action locally - you cannot even see the security question item/field.
I thought FTG would be easier, more flexible/powerful and liked some of the options like the security question and captcha.
Always open to easier, better ways of doing things, though.
I’ve used FTG for years and recommend it. For people who need to step
outside of the bubble of comfort Freeway creates, it’s really a small step.
We learn from experience, and sometimes from a little frustration.

The PHPFF action requires no external files or apps - whats easier than
that.
Besides once you have created one form it is portable and can be
copy/pasted to another page or document and reused with only minor alts.
