Hi everyone I created a custom module that has a Ctools multi step form. It's basically a copy of http://www.nicklewis.org/using-chaos-tools-form-wizard-build-multistep-forms-drupal-6.

The form works. I can see it if I got to the url i made for it.

For the life of me I can't get the multistep form to show up in a block.

Any clues?

function mycrazymodule_block($op='list', $delta=0, $edit=array()) {
 switch ($op) {
 case 'list':
  $blocks[0]['info'] = t('SFT Getting Started');
  $blocks[1]['info'] = t('SFT Contact US');
  $blocks[2]['info'] = t('SFT News Letter');
  return $blocks;
 case 'view':
  switch ($delta){
  case '0':
   $block['subject'] = t('SFT Getting Started Subject');
   $block['content'] = mycrazymodule_wizard();
   break;
  case '1':
   $block['subject'] = t('SFT  Contact US Subject');
   $block['content'] =  t('SFT  Contact US content');
   break;
  case '2':
   $block['subject'] = t('SFT  News Letter Subject');
   $block['content'] = t('SFT  News Letter cONTENT');
   break;
  }
  return $block;
 }

A: 

Am assuming you have enabled the block from admin. To do a quick check that the block is indeed getting rendered on the page you are looking at, try returning a test string along with your rendered form, from your block callback.

If that doesn't work, try clearing your cache from admin/settings/performance and try again. If I am not wrong, blocks are cached by default. Let us see if it shows up then.

Hi Amar,Thanks for the suggestion. I already tried that, and it does show up.If I override $output = ctools_wizard_multistep_form($form_info, $step, $form_state); return $output;return "ddd"; It returns ddd.
