Hi,

- J! 1.7.3, Civi 4.0.7

When you generate the necessary embed code for a profile form that can be used anywhere the form action URL is to the /administrator URL. The action URL should be to the front end otherwise embedding it becomes problematic when you have an invalid form as the resulting page with the errors highlighted ends up in the back end. It is feasible to have all the resources refer to the /administrator URL but not the actual form action URL.

Consequently I cannot use the embed code generated. Aside from hand editing the generated HTML is there any other work around?

PS. As mentioned in previous posts having JS resources etc being accessed from /administrator is problematic if the back end is protected by .htaccess or J! plugins requiring a token to allow access to /administrator. I hope in 4.1 that resources are now referred to from the front end URL

Check on joomla demo and action url seems right to me,

<form  action="http://joomla.demo.civicrm.org/index.php?option=com_civicrm&amp;task=civicrm/profile/create&amp;gid=1&amp;reset=1" method="post" name="Edit" id="Edit" >

check http://joomla.demo.civicrm.org/administrator/index2.php?option=com_civicrm&task=civicrm/admin/uf/group&action=profile&gid=1

I agree. But that is not a valid test as it is CiviCRM 3.x on J! 1.5. I am running CiviCRM 4.0.7 and J! 1.7.x. Can anyone do a test on Civi 4.0 at a minimum and see if they can reproduce?
