I am creating a form and would like to have a drop down boxing listing the users from a specific user group on my site. How would I write this?

Thanks,

Luke

Great great stuff!!!Exactly what I have been looking for apart from one little thing that is obvious that you can get to work based on answers, problem is I don't know how......

I'm looking at getting the User to enter the name so when the form is posted as a new thread, it has a name the user entered.. used as a rewiew form where each User reviews a different product. A similar question was asked and this was the answer:

... well, I am a newb at this and would anyone be able to tell me exactly how you change:

// Name of this form
$formname = "form";

if ($_REQUEST['do'] == $formname)
{
into a variable so that when people enter in the product name, that becomes the thread title???

http://www.vintagecigarclub.com/foru...ad.php?do=form

I would like the field "what cigar are you reviewing" to become the thread title when it is submitted.

Would be exremely appreciative of any help with this!

Not 100% sure what you mean but try this...

Line 412: $posttitle = $name

make $name to be equal to one of the form answers.

For Example:

$posttitle = "$radioanswer2";

Doing this means that when the new thread is created, radio answer 2 will be the subject line.

Hope that helps.

How do i add a drop down menu to the categories they want to post - i tried a couple of time but to no avail.

Please advice.

Thanks in advance,
Marc.

Clicked Install.

I've been hired by a company, the president of which uses vBulletin sites frequently and wants me to create a Sales Call form for his test site which I just recently got installed. I'm just a simple website design guy and not an experienced vBulletin user--let alone a programmer--so here are my very dumb questions:

- What does the Install button do?
- When I take your advice on this hack (that word sounds dangerous to this newbie) to get it on the site via the Admin CP, where does it reside? I can't find it to modify the parameters.
- My client/president wants this form to be available via a button and have a drop-down menu or radio button selection allowing the user (sales person) to select the city (thread) in which the submit output will go. From your notes and the happy responses I've read, it looks like this hack is exactly what I need. I just need some remedial help in getting started.
- Can you point me to any vBulletin sites that do this kind of thing so I can have a model to emulate?

Does this qualify as the most ignorant post you've ever read?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Abe1 06-14-2006 02:01 AM
When you click 'install', it means you are using the hack.

I can generate a form to exactly what you need. PM your email and I can email you all the info I would need.

Marcus Lau 06-15-2006 06:07 AM
Abe would it be good if you could share his hack form with us when u have done. Well, i Pmed you, could you please reply too.

Thanks.

SupremeWeapon 06-18-2006 03:28 AM
Tell you what. I decided to wait for fixes to all the issues i reported. just tried you rnew version and it posts to pm like a glove is required to catch a 100m,ile an hour fast ball( means it works perfectly)


***Reclicks install***

great job

ONE THING.


is there a way to allow for this to have attachments?


Like 2 different places have a user upload something to it and then when its pmed it is sent to the uperson with the files as attachments?


that would be a big help

I will try to get attachments to work again when I come out with a vb3.6 version. Not sure it would work though.

Also, you wont be able to get it to work with PM's since there is no attachment feature with PM's.

mrgrimes 06-20-2006 05:53 AM
I've got a problem with new threads. The form is being emailed fine, but new threads are not being created.

This isn't the first time I've used this plugin, so it must be something I've done wrong. I've checked the plugin and templates over and over again, and checked them against other instances of the plugin, but I can't see where the problem is.

There's no error message and the user permissions seem to be correct. The forum ID is also correct.

Any ideas?

Does the user have permission to make a new thread?

Canis Firebrand 06-20-2006 04:09 PM
I used the plugin, and put in the forum id and thread id to have the forum submit to an existing thread.

When I type in all the info and hit submit, I get the following message

"No Thread specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator"

I turned on the redirection to have it take me to the post, and when the above message shows, in the url it has this at the end showthread.php?p=

With the default setup, after submitting, I get the message "Thanks for submitting the form." and it looks like it makes the post. But, no new post is made.

I am posting with proper permissions, and the forum id and thread id do exist.

I enabled the option to have the form PM'ed to me, and I do get a PM as soon as I hit submit with the proper info.

It just seems to be hanging up on creating the post.

**EDIT**

After reading page 52, it appears I may have my answer. I use Psionic Vision's adv.editing options hack. Has any inroad been made to resolve why these two plugings conflict?

I disabled the adv. edition hack, and it did make a post successfully. However, it created a new thread. It didn't add it to an existing thread like I said to in the options.
It did, at least, put it in the right forum.

*EDIT*

Actually, it appears that it did append it to an existing thread. But, it also created a new thread. Strange.

Boinger 06-20-2006 05:16 PM
is there a way to make a form so only one user group can view it but everyone can post to it ?

Boinger 06-22-2006 02:21 AM
i am gettin an error

it is saying that everything went through ok and it posted but it is not making a new thread..

Domenico 06-22-2006 10:44 AM
Do I need to make own links to the forms or does the newreply button automaticly link to the form url ?

which looks really weird in an email... any workaround for that?

No work around right now.

When vb3.6 comes out, there will be a work around.

mcgrco 06-29-2006 07:34 PM
Oh what have I done. I was playing around with the forums and now the form won't work. admin, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

I set the redirectoption = 4 but it wont work. Anyone able to help

bayridge 07-03-2006 01:54 AM
Is there a way to make user enter the post title? For instance, I would like the answer from $normalquestion1 to be the $posttitle. Whatever the user enters in that box should be the title of the post. Can this be done? Thx.

armstrong 07-03-2006 11:44 AM
Hi! I have the icash hack installed for my forum money, and I'm interested in exploring applicability of these two functions of your forms hack:

># Order form to buy things
># Donation form

How are these things done with the forms hack, in the context of forum money? Is it even applicable?

Polo 07-03-2006 03:52 PM
Cool Hack!

Can you help me understand a little better:
Of the steps below I completed step 1
However I dont understand how to perform step 2. How do I edit the main hook and after that how will I make the form.
Any help you can give would appreciated.

Thank you.
1 - Import the xml into products. (admin cp -> Plugin System -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product)
2 - Edit the main hook - the instructions are all inside the hook itself, in the top half. Follow the instructions carefully!
3 - To get to the form, go to: /newthread.php?do=form (change "form" to the name of your form if you have few)

Shameless bump...really need help with it :/

Abe1 07-06-2006 12:35 PM
You have to edit the template also.

PimvanJ 07-06-2006 02:27 PM
Do I edit the xml product file directly?
I have no idea where to start, Is there some sort of help for Vbdummies?

UManiac 07-06-2006 04:37 PM

UManiac 07-06-2006 09:12 PM
While browsing the thread I noticed people requesting for the abilit to include attachments. Is this something that has been implemented?

My primary purpose for the form hack is to send PM's to a specific user group; I would like to include an attachment as well.

Right now I'm running only one other hack in my forum - PM Attachments

Any chance the functionality from one can be used in the other?

Thanks!

You have to edit the template "form"

Mysticales 07-11-2006 03:06 AM
Ohh nice! I wish there was a thing like this for 3.0.9! Could use one so users couple submit news via PM to a mod to get posted about.

Edit: I feel stupid... just found the old version lol.. but yea.. trying to design a button users to click for devs to submit their apps if they post it on the forums. =)

Any timeframe? This is the one mod that does so much for me. I'll hold off updating to Gold for this one. This mod has been a lifesafer. :banana:

Americankiwi 07-11-2006 10:42 PM
Hi,

I managed to install it, and can view the altered form I've made in my browser, but have some questions (as I am not a coder)

1. How can I add a button in specific forums, that replaces the "New Thread" button with a "New Review" button?

I would like to make forums that allow one person to (instead of starting a "New Thread") start a "New Game Review" that opens up the form I've made.

2. How can I make the contents of the user's form go at the very top of the page, visually different/ separate from the rest of the thread?

I'd like other people reading the thread to be able to comment on that person's review below.

3. How can I make it so that the field in which they input the Name of the Game they are reviewing becomes the Title of the thread?

and finally 4. I noticed that posted results are not very well aligned. Is there some code reference for newbies someone could point me to, so that I can align the resulting form post - i.e. make it look more professional?

Thanks in advance,

TS
