Form Tools 1 Data Import Problem

[livetech]

Hi All

I am testing upgrading an old 1.5.1 FT installation to 2.0.6

I installed the Form Tools 1 Data Import Module and ran through the process. All went well and my forms/clients etc have all imported into my new database. Great

All except the settings that should be there for the Emails tab when editing a form. These are all missing, with a message saying

"No emails have been defined for this form. To add a new one, click the button below."

Is this something the importer missed, or just a feature of FT2 that you have to reset these details for the sending of emails when a form is submitted ?

Cheers.

Hi Livetech,

Wow! A 1.5 installation - it's been a while!

I'm afraid that that was one of the limitations of the module: none of the email templates are copied over. See:
http://modules.formtools.org/ft1_data_im...imitations

The reason was that the old email templates are totally different from the new ones. The new ones are written in Smarty rather than PHP, so they couldn't be ported across (or at least, not without a HUUUUGE amount of work).

Sorry about that...! I know it's a pain, but my hands were kind of tied there.

No Problems Ben - I worked that out once I read the limitations
