BTW, I know you told me about this a while back. But I wanted to be sure it wasn't a problem only on your system.

A public fix will be released shortly.

I don't think that this version of Advanced Application Forms is compatible with vB5.

Check this:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=289291

nhawk 01-13-2014 10:38 AM

That is correct. This version is not compatible with vB5.

And the vB5 version is on hold until vB5 stabilizes.

uservb11 01-13-2014 03:12 PM

Thank you very much!
I have installed the attached link, all seemed to work smoothly i create new page to experiment with the module and then when i finally see the new menu on the AdminCP 'Application Forms' Somehow i click either one of the options (Application Form Settings, Types, Positions, Edit default Question) and all get is blank page with no data or menu, just white. :(
Just when i felt i finally made it....
What could i have done wrong in the process?

Many thanks for your time.

Before someone gets confused..

This is all in reference to the vB5 version. Uservb11 has posted in the wrong thread.

Now my reply...

You haven't done anything wrong. The vB5 version of this mod does not work with the current version of vB5. Did you not see this in the mod's description..

UNTIL VB5 STABILIZES THIS MOD WILL BE UNSUPPORTED AND WILL NOT BE UPDATED
Also, please read the last post in the mod's thread...

uservb11 01-13-2014 04:32 PM

ahh sorry, i havent noticed i am the wrong thread.
I thought that the most current version of VB signifies the most up to date.
I guess i have to wait until until it is ready to be able to use it.

Thank you all.

Is there any way to utilize a form in a CMS widget? I copied all of the HTML code and it works, but it doesn't pull in the security token. All I need is to pull in the security token in the widget, I can try to figure everything else out on my own. Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: Please disregard the securitykey issue. I have resolved that, now my only issue is getting {vb:raw username} to work.
EDIT #2: Ok, I got everything worked out. Please disregard the entire message. I had to use {vb:raw bbuserinfo.username} instead. I now have the form working in a widget :)

I haven't even attempted to put any part of the AAF system into the CMS. If I had, I would gladly help you.

That's ok. I knew it wasn't supported. It doesn't pull the live code since I have the questions hard set in the widget template but it does work. Later I may look at getting it to pull the questions directly. I'm not much of a coder though so this may be as good as it gets. I appreciate the response.

Bestrafung 02-18-2014 06:07 PM

There's one more thing that's bugging me. Is it possible to have the email and PM sent from the form submission include a link to the user profile? It seems that the system won't allow you to reply to the PM (presumably because it's a system message and not user) so it's difficult to reply without copy/pasting their username into a new PM message.

You can reply to the PM. If you can't reply, then either a setting for you or the user sending the PM is stopping the reply. Or, another mod is stopping the reply.

Great mod, Easy to use. Installed on 4.2.2 PL1

Feedback below:

On the "?do=start" page, where the questions are, I can't find an option to edit the text "I am applying for the position of".

Had to manually edit application-forms.php to remove extra spacing between the lines (changing "\r\n". "\r\n"; to "\r\n";)

Direct links to application "positions" would be great (e.g. application-forms.php?appid=1&positionapplying=2)

Can't complain though, works really well.

You need to edit the phrase 'advapp_applyfor'.

No problem with the spacing, that's up to the individual user's preference.

Direct links to positions would bypass the permissions for the application types, so that won't happen.

Thanks for the tip with the phrase.

The line-spacing is not a problem, of course, but an option would be nice.

I haven't delved into the intricacies of the module, so I will take your word on the permissions issue :)

JohnGentz 05-24-2014 09:03 PM

Just a few questions:

- Can I add more replacement variables for my Subject? (How would I do that?)

- I only have one Application Type, is there anyway to just change the "APPLICATION FORMS" Nav Button to just say "APPLY"?

Thank you.

You would need to edit the application-forms.php file to do that. I do not provide or support custom coding with free support, so you're on your own there.

Thank you.

You would need to edit the advapp_title phrase. Be aware that if you do that, anywhere on your site that you see 'Application Forms' will be changed.

great mod!
i only have the question if it's possible to add something like a <br> between the questions and the answers in the created threads.

so it looks more nice

If you mean a single line, yes. See post 535 in this thread for what needs to be done.

Disregard this post. Issue resolved.

AoD Penguin 07-02-2014 10:09 PM

Disregard once again. I found the issue. I will leave the original post below so others who have this issue can get it resolved.

Alright.. This was working perfectly fine for me before. Now, its not working at all.

If I click on the Application Forms nav bar button, it does nothing. You can see a very small box appear where it normally would with the application types.

when i go to the url of the application type itself, it says I do not have access to it. I have gone through all the settings and they are set correctly.

Note: This works PERFECTLY for all other users, including Global Mods and other Admins. It is just MY account that is doing this. I am the original account on the forum, User ID #1. The other admin is listed as a SuperAdmin in the config as well. Our accounts are nearly identical. No idea what is going on. Any ideas are appreciated!

Thanks!
When I setup FB Connect, the auto usergroup is Awaiting Moderation so I can approve or deny members. I was listed under that usergroup when I connected my account. It auto added me to the Awaiting Moderation group and it denied my access to the applications.

Is it possible to launch a form from the "Post New Thread" thread button in just one or two forums?

No it is not.

Applications must be launched from the application menu or from the application types menu.

alcazarx 08-28-2014 03:39 PM

Great mod, yes, thanks for it.
One question, could the application_send_notification be moved to the application_group section?
It would be less work if one could define notification (email/pm/thread) on the groups instead of each job position.
Define it ones and all jobs will have the same, since its almost the same notification type.

Thanks.

The reason the notification is in the application itself is so each application can be directed to the proper person. Putting it in the application type would defeat that purpose since applications for let's say 'employment' could go to different departments.

Fields 08-29-2014 10:28 AM

Great mod, works fine with vB 4.2.2 PL 2! Installed, rated with 5 stars and MOTM :)

alcazarx 08-30-2014 01:41 PM

Thanks for explanation, we see your point.
Since we dont have many "open jobs" and its the same person who reviews them :p we'll have to see to set some "default values" for the notification.

Have a nice weekend.

Wickedstylis 09-02-2014 03:01 AM

Is it possible to change this text, and if so what file or files would I need to modify? We are using this on our World of Warcraft guild website and plan on using the application plug in to have users submit applications to join our team. These users will typically come to the website as anonymous users and I want the text to direct them to register on the forums prior to submitting an application. I could create a landing page that provides instructions on what to do with a link to the actual application on the page but that seems clunky and unnecessary.

That is a vBulletin phrase. You need to edit the phrase 'advapp_off' in ACP->Languages & Phrases->Search Phrases. Enter the name of the phrase, tick 'Phrase Variable Name Only' and click find.

Wickedstylis 09-02-2014 11:03 AM

That was easy enough. Thank you for your help!

Currently I have the form set up so that when submitted opens a new thread in a forum that is restricted to specific usergroups. I would like to make the thread created by the form visible to the applicant without giving them full access to see all other submissions.

I'm not sure if this question is best suited for you or if it's a general setup of the forum itself that I need to work on, so apologies if this isn't the right place.

Thanks again for your help!

That's actually a vBulletin setting that has nothing to do with the AAF system.

First set AAF up so the user posting the thread is the user submitting the application by setting the 'Poster ID' to zero.

Then go to ACP->Forums & Moderators->Forum Permissions. Select the usergroup that the people filling out the forum belong to and set it up so they can view the forum. BUT...

Change these settings to 'NO'..
Can View Others' Threads
Can Reply to Others' Threads
Can Tag Others' Threads

That should accomplish what you want.

Fields 09-03-2014 02:48 PM

I have one request:

I set it up, that the mod creates a new thread after submitting an application. Is it possible, that the applicant automatically subscribes to this thread in order to get a notification when there's any new post?
The best thing would be, when the applicant gets a customizable notification via PM, when someone answers his thread.

I would pay a few bucks for this work, if you don't want to do it for free :)

Unfortunately that would require almost an entire new add-on that would interface to the AAF system to send PMs when a post is made in a thread. And I'm not inclined to do another add-on for vB at this time.

dha12oks 09-03-2014 04:12 PM

Spotted a bug, not sure if you are aware of this, or if this plugin is still in maintained but when ever you go to application-forms.php?do=start without submitting what position your applying for, the page just loops over and over.

I can write in PHP, so I am guessing it's a pretty simple solution to the fix.

Not a bug.

There should never be an instance when that link is provided directly without being on the list of application forms where an error is thrown if an application isn't selected.

If you're providing a direct link, then the bug is in your link, not in the AAF system.

would you be able to make one for 4.2.2 please? thanks :D
