Hi,

I have recently installed Contour on umbraco 4.6 (.net 4) and created a form using the Contact Form template.

I included the macro in a template.

<form runat="server">
 <umbraco:Macro FormGuid="dd514037-4e3b-46e4-a6aa-f251ad58ab6f" Alias="umbracoContour.RenderForm" runat="server"></umbraco:Macro>
</form>

When I view the source of the html I have only:

<form id="ctl00" action="/kontakt.aspx?umbdebugshowtrace=true" method="post">
<div class="aspNetHidden">
<input type="hidden" value="" id="__EVENTTARGET" name="__EVENTTARGET">
<input type="hidden" value="" id="__EVENTARGUMENT" name="__EVENTARGUMENT">
<input type="hidden" value="/wEPDwUENTM4MQ9kFgJmD2QWAmYPZBYCZg9kFgJmD2QWAmYPZBYCAgUPZBYCAgUPZBYCAgEQZGQWAgIBD2QWAmYPZBYCAgQPFgIeB1Zpc2libGVoZGQslNq5KDcMPuG3rqhJBDRLSoe2TeyXgzp0MvWVVXW8+w==" id="__VIEWSTATE" name="__VIEWSTATE">
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
//&lt;![CDATA[
var theForm = document.forms['ctl00'];
if (!theForm) {
    theForm = document.ctl00;
}
function __doPostBack(eventTarget, eventArgument) {
    if (!theForm.onsubmit || (theForm.onsubmit() != false)) {
        theForm.__EVENTTARGET.value = eventTarget;
        theForm.__EVENTARGUMENT.value = eventArgument;
        theForm.submit();
    }
}
//]]&gt;
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/WebResource.axd?d=FETjfWpJC26yhgFfE190lvs4j3h_r6kJgg0nOjSOBkloepbwC3alGeQ4uJDG2zbcK_qAu34fuaQklc4NX6ByHY5wy7h0CgfEb4zpaFjD-341&amp;t=634225026317535674"></script>

  <div style="border: 1px solid rgb(0, 0, 153);" title="Macro Tag: 'umbracoContour.RenderForm'">
</div>
</form>

I also viewed the stack trace:

umbracoMacro    Macro loaded from cache (ID: 47, Insert form from Umbraco Contour)               1.26490852887727 0.000344

Can someone please help me out? Thanks.

P.S: During the installation of Contour I did not get any errors.

Yes the form works fine and I can even submit and view the entry from the backend.

Ok think I spot the error,

The macro alias, did you make any changes to that, since I don't think
```
Alias="umbracoContour.RenderForm" 
```
Is the default alias, make sure your alias matches

I did not touch the alias. But I will check that it matches.

I checked the alias and also changed it so that I am sure that it's not from the alias. Anything else I can check?

Can you please confirm that the latest Contour version is compatible with the latest Umbraco version?

Could it be because Contour is not licensed? And it is not showing on the page?

Thanks.

Yup I can confirm that it's compatible

No even in trail mode you should see the form

Could it be something related to any missing libraries or something IIS wise?

Can't think why it should not display.. any javascript libraries? Any permissions?

But the thing is that it seems to load the related javascript files correctly but it does not create the actual fields and form structure to display it.

Any option to get login details to this install ? If so could you mail me at tg (at) umbraco (dot) dk

I have created a local installation and installed Contour and yes it works. Now I am looking into the custom skin I have built maybe I forgot to add something to it.

Update: have changed the skin but still the same result. I am now checking to see if any file permissions or anything is incorrect.

Update 2: I have enabled the stack trace to see if there is any difference and in fact I noticed that the FormGuid is not being passed on the live system.
```
umbracoMacroMacro loaded from cache (ID: 22, Insert form from Umbraco Contour)

renderMacroRendering started (macro: Insert form from Umbraco Contour, type: 3, cacheRate: 0)

umbracoMacroUsercontrol added (/usercontrols/umbracoContour/RenderForm.ascx)

loadUserControlUsercontrol added with id 'RenderForm_3'

macro.loadControlPropertiesProperty added 'FormGuid' with value 'de5e81b0-5a2e-4dfb-aa94-10fb5940238c'
```
As you can compare with my first stack trace above the last line where the macro.loadControlPropertiesProperty is not being called. Is there anything in this regards that I can check? thanks.

Re-installed a new copy of Umbraco 4.6 and also installed Contour and seems to work fine now. Probably something went wrong with the permissions or during the installation of Contour the first time.

At least until now I did not encounter any issues.

Thanks for your help.

Ok, don't think it was a permissions thing since the preview worked... Most likely something todo with the template it was on

But glad it's working now

Cheers,
Tim
