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.

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.

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.

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.

Too bad, but thanks for your answer anyway :)

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.
