Editing form data (Front End) displays form, not data

Hi there.
So, I've created two forms. Actually created one with most of the input fields I will use, and then copied several of those fields into a separate form (not as many fields).

The first form works perfectly in that I can display the data in a table on the front end and edit/save. All is good.

On the second form is where the problem is. I can view the data in a table as before, but when I edit the data, I'm presented with the blank form and no data.

I've compared these forms side by side. I've checked every field to see what there might be that's different. I just don't understand this. 

Thank you for your help.

This actually sounds like a Javascript error problem.
Could you please check the browser console, whether their might be some useful information?

:idea: I recommend you the new and up-to-date documentation for Joomla 4:
docs.joomla-5.visforms.vi-solutions.de/en/docs/
Most of this also applies retrospectively to Joomla 3.
Please only ask 1 question per topic :-).

:idea: Ich empfehle Dir die neue und aktuelle Dokumentation für Joomla 4:
docs.joomla-5.visforms.vi-solutions.de/docs/
Das meiste gilt rückwirkend auch für Joomla 3.
Bitte immer nur 1 Frage pro Thema stellen :-).

Nope. No issues.

I have two forms:
1. All_Fields
2. Contact

When I set the menu item to form data for "Form 1", it all works fine.
But when I change it to "form 2", it doesn't work. When I "view" the data, it's all there, but when I click to "edit", that's when the issue arises. 

The only real difference is that "Form 2" is a multi page form. It's pretty important that it remain that way. I turned off the "pagebreak" field, but that didn't help.

::A little more info::
I've determined that this is truly an issue on my end. There is a direct conflict between VisForms and EngageBox. When I disabled Engagebox, all my data was there and editable.

I don't know why it all works on one form but not the others.

This is resolved.
This was a conflict between VisForms and Engagebox that only effected the edit portion of the data set.
When I excluded Engagebox from that page, the issue was resolved.

Hope this helps someone else.
