1. Yes, using form hooks. For example: Form Hook: Form Start:
http://www.yourforums.com/forums/misc.php?do=form&fid=41&select=1
This would select the first option of question with question hash 316

2. Yes, click enable attachments. (Only available for forms creating new threads)

I do not understand what you mean? Are you talking about form sections? or sections elsewhere in vBulletin?

bananalive, you rock, thank you very much!!

Hi there - seeking some advice on how to use forms for replying to thread posts. I have set up and working well for controlling new posts to forums. Many thanks for the earlier advice re that.

Also with regard to polls, could you add a variable on the end of this - I am keen to differentiate my polls per post but as the questions are all the same per post (which is what I want), VB seems to just show the latest voted thread - ie through the poll widget.....

Are you referring to Form Results Poll or creating a thread with a poll?

I'm having a problem with permissions. I set it to allow unregistered/not logged in users to be able to see the forms, but when I click on my form when I am not logged in I get the "I do not have permission" notice. Is there something I'm missing here?

Hi - I mean creating a poll upon form submission.

This is the problem I'm currently having. The forum permissions and usergroup permissions are configured correctly, yet only admin can attach files. Did you ever resolve this?

How can I move the position of the tab? I'd like to have it at the end of the other tabs, or at least further away from 'Forum'.

Check your permissions for attachments as per the forum the form posts to.

Double check that you are editing ability for users to view form and not the ability to view form lists.

Well, Forum & Moderators --> Forum Permissions --> Can Upload Attachments is set to Yes.

Usergroup has the ability to attach up to 10MB files.

I double checked the form settings and the users are configured properly. The can view the forms but not the form lists.

Is noone having major issues with this product with 4.1? I have sql errors constantly. I had issues installing the product and had to edit the DB create statements and remove the TYPE=MYSAM or whatever to get it to import.

Now when I try to delete forms I get:

Here's the one I was talking about when I import the product

Unicode characters like ب ت م and it does not make difference in any field. All turn into question marks.

Upgraded just now from a couple versions ago, not sure of the exact one, but
I didn't receive any SQL errors during product import nor have noticed any on my dev site.

Is yours a first time install or upgrade?

First time install

yeah!!your back!!

now i like to bump my question i had a wile back...

ok here is my question...i see what you did in post #64 and that is make it so you can choose an answer that is a thread title that is in a certain forum....now can you make it so that is the thread that the results go to from the form?...aka user can choose what thread in a forum the results go to every time with out having to go to that thread/s every time?

bananalive, this mod makes my website recruit form so much easier. Thank you very much. On a side note, a lot of people over at xenforo really want this mod ported over. Some offering donations too. Do you have any plans to do this?

I'm still waiting for a response too. I've checked the permissions for attachments per your suggestion yet non-admin users still can't attach files. Is there a hidden Forms setting somewhere I'm missing?

Sorry, no I'm not.

Is it showing attach link? Are they getting error messages?

I have just checked on my forum and those characters are inserted fine in forms for me.

Try attached file.

I'm getting the error:

"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 can only assume this means the permissions are configured wrong but, again, I've triple checked the forum permissions, usergroup permissions and verified with vB support and it's all configured properly.

Does the error come up after you click 'Manage Attachments'?

Does the user have permission to view forum, the thread is being created within?

Does the user have permission to post in the forum the thread is being created within?

Sorry about all the questions, but it's the only way i'll be able to find a solution because i cannot replicate the problem at the moment.

Yes.

Yes, though the forum is hidden.

Yes. And if they fill out the form it posts properly. It's only the Manage Attachments that isn't working.

Would it be possible to add a user to a special user group after they have completed the form? if so how would one go about doing this?

Here's a fix:

1. Edit Form -> Alter Forum to one where users can post threads and attach files
2. Create the following vBulletin Plugin via AdminCP
   • php code
     PHP Code:

     ---

     if ($fid == 43)
{
$forumid = 6;
$dataman =& datamanager_init('Thread', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY, 'threadpost'); 
$dataman->set_existing($threadinfo);  
$dataman->setr('forumid', $forumid);  
$dataman->pre_save(); 
if (count($dataman->errors) > 0) 
{ 
    foreach ($errors as $error)
    {
        $errorss .= $error. "<br />";
    }
    $errormessage = "Form failed to submit. The following error(s) occured: <br /> ".$errorss;
    eval(standard_error($errormessage));
} 
else 
{ 
$dataman->save();  
$foruminfo = fetch_foruminfo($forumid);
$threadinfo = fetch_threadinfo($newpost['threadid']);
mark_thread_read($threadinfo, $foruminfo, $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'], TIMENOW);    
}
}

   • change 43 for appropriate form id
   • change 6 to appropriate forum id
   • hook name

To add user to additional usergroup...

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=115

Is it possible to view a single result?

I am creating a widgit in PHP that shows the users submitted forms with an easy "Edit" button but I'm stuck on how to just show them their result as it goes in to a database not a forum.

So I'd like to just show them the resulted form information they entered for that single entry.\

EDIT: Oh I suppose I could just pull the Output field. Though then I need to find a way to show the output of the BBCode from the database in a php widgit.

To parse it, use the following on $output:

v4.2.3 Beta

v4.2.3 is the addition of searchable Form Results Table. If you have a go and let me know what you think.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...1&d=1297183178

Awesome, bananalive you have no idea how much work this addon is saving me. Thank you!

Upgraded, looks great and the search function works great!

bananalive: Exporting to excel doesnt work well with some fields it seems. It's not taking my radio button results, nor my multiline results. Are you aware of the issue, or have a fix? Just curious. Thanks for the hard work on this mod. It's one of a kind!

Any idea what might cause this display/formatting problem? Or how to fix it?

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2011/02/1.bmp

I havent modified anything, just installed and noticed it was doing that.

There was a problem with Grid Questions, I'll release a fix later today. But not with multi-line or radio that i aware of it? If you cannot see all the text - try expanding the cells height and width.

It should be copying the styling from other parts of the forum. If you want to manually edit the formatting, edit template form_list_bot

In v4.2.4+ 'Create New Form' it has been changed from a link to a button.

v4.2.4 (just released in first post) is the non-Beta version of v4.2.3 (with a few bug fixes from the beta version)
