vb.org Archive - New Posting Features - Easy Forms - Create a form or multiple forms without php or html knowledge

I found a small bug, when writing a description i used inverted commas like: "Introduce Yourself" , on my form the output is as such: "Introduce Yourself"

Im not sure how this bug can be corrected, anyone?

Is it possible to have the "insert image" icon added to the "field using vb editor"?

vBulletin Options -> BB Code Settings -> Allow [IMG] Code in Non Forum Specific Areas -> Yes

Is there any plan in the future to store the form data as fields in the database. It will allow the sort by column in the result table.
I've seen a couple of people asking this so it would be awesome if you can add this feature.

Second, can you add a features for members to come back later to edit/update/finish their answers in the form?
This will have to do with a tracking of how many forms each member submit.

Yes that is included in v3.7

The number of times a user submits each form is recorded with v3.7 but not ability to update answers already submitted

First of all, thanks for the great mod!

I'm having a bit of an issue, though, and since I'm not too well versed in PHP, I may need your help. I'm trying to work around the fact that there's no easy way to offer the user a choice of a prefix (though if there is, let me know - I tried the code you offered earlier on, but it didn't work). Anyway, I'm adding a radio selection in which the top option will include a preset prefix, and the bottom option will not include any prefix. I'm trying to use an if-else combined with a str_replace in order to add the right "prefix" (actually, it's just extra text) when the option is selected.

In Form Hook: Before Submit:

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($q[6] == 1)
{
    $formoutput = str_replace("{f4f}", "[f4f]F4F:[/f4f]", $formoutput);
} else {
    $formoutput = str_replace("{f4f}", "", $formoutput);
}

{f4f} is the placeholder that I'm using in order to place the text in the right place. I have the {f4f} placeholder in the Thread/ PM/ Email Title field, but it doesn't get replaced when I submit the form - it just remains in the title. I'm not saying it's your fault - if anything, it's probably a product of poor coding on my part. I'm not very familiar with PHP, so I just know enough to get by. Any chance you can help? It would be greatly appreciated. :)

The prefix is a seperate field in thread database table not part of the post. $formoutput is what gets stored as the post and does not contain prefix data.

1) One thing I notice is that for the question of date type which is not required, if you don't choose any date, the result will display as //. Can you make it blank if we don't pick any date?
2) I did as told and the question now show like this

PHP Code:


		
			
Program:[color=red]*[/color]

bananalive,
Thanks, it works.
1) It would be nice to edit this phrase as well to show the red color.

Quote:

Please Note: Questions proceeded by an asterisk (*) are compulsory.

2) Which template do I edit to rearrange the form result table? I like to remove/add another column, for example
3) The sort by column header still does not work. You mentioned about using javascript in 3.7. Is it implemented yet?

Thanks for all your hard work. This is a heck of a mod.

3. You can limit how many times a user can submit the form by editing a form.

You answered to No to the question of whether a member can go back and edit/update their partially filled form.

How about give the user the option to delete their forms and enter a new one with updated info. Would it be able to have a Delete/Add button next to the form result table so the user can click to remove one of their form, and replace it with another.

Can AJAX feature be implemented in the future?

You know i'm trying to mold this into the trackitt.com feature so hope you can understand :)
