WOW kvnband, many many thax. i try to change this first.

u know about the search function ???

it's very hard for my to explain all probs in english but i try.

would be wonderful, when someone could't change this bug for the search.

greets sascha

ps. many many many many thanks goes to kvnband !!!!!!!

I'm sorry, but I have never looked into the search problem (my form created threads are auto pruned after 30 days of inactivity, so there is no reason to bother indexing them).
Kevin

hi, ok thats right. i must delete alle the threads also after 30 days. how i can do that automatically.

but i need very urgent the same like you. everybody who make a new thread with this form must write a title of the thread. can u help me with this ??

with the code changes above every thread looks like " THREAD TITLE HERE"

thanks in advance.

greets sascha

I sent you a PM. You must create an input box in your form callled $threadtitle or something similar. Then put $threadtitle (or whatever you called it) in replacement of 'YOUR THREAD TITLE HERE'
Kevin

Also, to auto prune threads

I installed this mod into our vBulliten, and everything works great, however even though we uploaded each template into the two different styles we have, for some reason the styles keep reverting back to default when either loading the form or submitting the form.

Is anyone else having this problem with this mod on their boards whom have custom styles? We could just be experiencing something goofed up in a template on the custom styler somewhere.

Any plans to port this hack over to 3.5?

I sent a PM to Erwin asking about if he minding if I worked on this hack for vb3.5. I never got a reply. I'm going to PM him again.

just installed in our auto for sale section. works great.

thx!

OK guys, thaks to Erwin permission, I have ported the hack over to vb3.5. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=93970

Kevin, You ROCK!!!

I'm still working out some other bugs, but your suggestion worked perfectly! Thank you very much!!!

Take care,

Okay, odd problem. I have had this installed for close to a year with no problems, but now I'm trying it a little differently, and I've come across a problem. I am using the form to reply to a thread.

In form.php:
If I leave $formforumid the way it is above, I get a syntax error. If I enter a 0 there, the error goes away, but the post won't redirect to the thread, it redirects to the last post, all by itself. If I enter in the forum ID #, it starts a new thread in that forum.

My question is; what should I enter there?

Anyway to get this to work on 3.0.8? I tried it, but it is not working.

Mike

i hope ... damn .. ive done this hack the last 3 days by myself :( didnt see the hack in here.

i dont get the installation !!
add the templates to what ?
i assume form.txt and formanswer.txt are the templates
but where do i add them ?

and does it work on 3.0.9 ?

Yes, form and formanswers are the templates. Use the Style Manager in admincp to add them.

I have it working on 3.0.9 with no problems. didn't have to make any modifcations either.

I have this setup and running nice. However, when filling out the form, I want the option of being able to choose between 3 forums to post the information too. I don't mind if it uses a drop-down menu or even radio buttons. I just need to know how I can set this up.

Any help would be great! Thanks!

great little mod, using it to sign up for a gift exchange we have started :)

Thank you for this :)

I have a request... I would like to have this pm'd to a user and posted as a reply in a thread....my request is though (if possible) I would like one of the answers not to show up in the tread only the pm...since we are dealing w/ members postal addreses... is this possible???

Thanks
Heather

anyone?

I'm sorry I'm a little new. Where in the template can I change the color?

downside of the hack, search feature wont work with it unelss users is redirected to the EDIT function and saves it. Which is silly. Most people have a hard enough time logging in let alone knowing how to post.

Is there any other way to resolve this? Because this hack is def 10/10 if the search feature would work with it.

Hi Guys,
I was hoping someone out there can help me out with this sql problem. I am thinking it has something to do with " ' " single quotes. Here is the error:
one solution might be to search the string for the invalid character.
is there a try catch routine with php?

Hi guys,
this is one awesome hack. after a little mucking around one can making this hack become an integral part of their website. I was wondering if anyone has been able to implement an image verification hack into this hack, and if so, can you please share how you did it?

thanks

What are the templates o.O

d'oh! Nevermind, just noticed this was a 3.0 hack. Nothing to see here...

Can someone help me add this to my forum, I need some help.. PM me please :S

I had this working on my server then we upgraded and moved servers as well.

I was at 3.0 and now I am at 3.5.3

I have checked all the code and even added the templates to the other VB default style that we dont use.

Really liked this hack and would love to get it working again.

Xray

PS. Have attached the forms/templates I use. Can someone please have a look.

I dont get where you add the templates? Like what to i name the forum templates to? PLEASE HELP

Why you don't use the Form Hack from Abe? That's the ported hack for 3.5 and very well supported by Abe.

is there anything like this for 3.5?

I was just testing the default form to see if it worked, and I get the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: globalize() in /home/httpd/vhosts/jsx1.net/httpdocs/forums/form.php on line 24

What am I doing wrong, or is there something I need to change?

Hey, just a question, if I wanted to use this to take info from a post/thread and insert it to the form for submission. Could it work?

The idea is this, I wanna edit the postbit template to add a icon, similar in idea to the "Report Post" button. Then if clicked, it will take the post you clicked it on, and email the user you need it to.

This way when the user checks their email, it will be a news submitted, showing the thread url, post details and so, this way it makes for us on the forums to get news on the front page faster.

Missing alot of pressing game news when its reported on forums but never gets mentioned to the news dept. Trying to make a easy way for this.

Suggestions on what I should setup? That or how to configure the form to do this kind of stuff? =)

I'm new to this and i don't get how do you upload this. Is it a product uploaded w/ the product manager? Are the "2 templates" automatically uploaded to the rihgt place when you upload them as a product? or is there a different way to upload this?

I hope 3.x.x means that it works with 3.6. .... I'm about to find out! wish me luck! ;)


... nevermind... found the one made for 3.6:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=126676 <--- there it is.

Very smart mod. I find it very helpful. Thank you

Can anyone tell me where is the 2 files. And what files to be uploaded.
Even though i uploaded form.php and the other 2 files i.e form.txt & formanswers.txt.
Its is not working its giving some global() error.

So can anyone tell me how to install it properly.

does this work on 3.7?

I'm not sure if this works or not with 3.7.x. I installed the newer Form Hack on 3.7.3 PL1 and it's working fine on 3.7.4. I used the old php based hack (the original here) on 3.0.3 but when I upgraded our forums I saw the newer product based hack and pretty much copied and pasted the majority of it over. I had to perform a number of customization but I don't remember how much was involved.
