I know what has caused the problem... expired certificate that means the site may be unsafe. They redirect http to https (secure) so there is no way you can avoid this message. Owners of Allforms don't seem to want to deal with problems or answer forum/support messages. Only way forward for users is move. I recreated over 13 forms with aidaform.com other free services providers are available eg jotform in less that 2 days. |

I believe that the owner/manager of this site is either dead or unable to physically manage this site -- he or she designed it so well that it was on automatic for a long time -- the expiration of the SSL certificate is what caused all of us to take notice. It is a shame that we lost this site and it will be missed as a affordable form handler. |

yep, same issue here ... been a member for 10 years ... gutted! I'll need to change our forms provider now. Pity, as I had zero issues with mailjol since day 1. Will try the aidaform.com (or jotform) as referenced above |

I seem to have got through today without the warning and it is displaying the https: version so perhaps the certificate has been renewed. I haven't checked if free account holders are now able to amend or create new forms because we have been barred for quite a while from doing so. |

confirmed! :-) The cert must have been renewed. Note: for an alternative forms processing site, I have written my own html forms so I just wanted to "post" the values to a forms processing site ... so aidaform and jotform didn't fit my requirements. I did find formsubmit.co though - which seemed to fit the bill perfectly. I'll need to decide now whether to stick with mailjol or jump ship to formsubmit.co |

Now I used to create my own forms and used allforms like kaiserpc just for the form processor function. I did though as mentioned earlier go with aidaform with their templates and found I could get a close approximation to what I wanted. I will have a look at formsubmit.co but doubt I will change my forms again... I don't get many submissions. One problem I found recently with allforms in addition was getting spam submissions from a certain person who has a reputation for that sort of thing. I did find that I could block the text of his website url in cPanel Global filters. |

Re: Formsubmit.co as suggested by kaiserpc. I think I might have seen a shortcoming of the service... the formprocessing address is: https://formsubmit.co/your@email.com. If you use their service you are revealing to anyone who uses view source on your contact webpage what your actual e-mail address is. Part of the reason for using contact forms is to hide your e-mail address to reduce the level of spam. Here your e-mail address could be harvested by humans and bots alike. |

Re: Formsubmit revealing your email ID - you are provided with a string of alphanumeric characters that you can use instead of your actual email ID in the formprocessing address. So, you're safe from spam. |

Re: Poom Bapooh. I did look more closely at Formsubmit after submitting earlier post and that is correct. Back to Allforms... still unable to create new forms or modify existing forms. Any form provider which works is better than one that doesn't and doesn't seem likely that allforms will work properly in the future. |
