I sucesfully installed it in my forum, but when someone fills a form get this javascript error:

Code:

vB_Editor[''] is undefined

return vB_Editor[''].prepare_submit(this.title.value, 0);

And the form is not submited.

I'm using vBulletin 3.8 + vbSeo 3.2.0

I'll have to look into this.

Make sure $newpost['visible'] = '1'; and then check usergroups permissions for that forum.

Also check you are using the correct question number - it's the number after the # as circled in the attached screenshot

Is there anyway to set a particular textfield to automatically parse url into a clickable link without forcing the user to write [url] tags?

Some users seem to have great difficulty in grasping the concept of adding bbcode correctly.

TIA!

ssslippy

01-29-2009 07:44 PM

I have text in my description and I put the center bbcode around it. It's centering in the left column it seems there is an issue with your colspan in your description field.

No full instructions required here (unless necessary), i just need a hint where to look...

Let's say I want the hide the submit button on a form for 10 minutes so people think about and double check what they are submitting...

Where would one find the place to add a HTML/PHP script to do so. Is there some template/plugin I'm missing? I searched them all for "submit" or "preview" but I assume it's being called as a variable or something.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

First of all I carefully read through every single post in this thread. I get the impression this software is fairly simple to use and the author is quick to be helpful and fix any problems that appear to pop up. I'm impressed so I'm going to give this a test drive at my anime forum before I submit it to my friend at my computer forum. So in light of that I have a couple of questions. Please keep in mind I am not a coder.
1st> At my anime forum I have a section to link to wiki's about anime series. It has 3 pics which when clicked on go to the thread where pics for the subject are posted. Below that is the link to the wiki page. And below that is a short description of the series. Here's an exsample > http://animeappeal.com/forums/showthread.php?t=206
Is it possible to do something like that by filling out a form and just have the answers to the questions show in a new thread with the series name as the header?
2nd> Is it possible to use this to do product reviews? Like what is it? Who makes it? Model number. Then the review with maybe pros and cons added to it below that.

Same general format for both it would be safe to assume. Thanks in advance for any help. And is the version in the lead post the lastest one?

You can use the form output field in Edit Form with bbcode and macroses to create the format of the post you want.

I've created a quick form here which will post your output, example post here - I can export the form for you if you want to adapt it.

I'm not sure which fields are needed for product review but you should be able to.

Not much, it's mainly the little bugs users have found. The only feature added is the form start hook.

The version history is here

I've updated the first post with the link.

01-30-2009 03:49 PM

Is this defined in the product or a template, the width of the QUESTION column and the width of the ANSWER column?

My questions seem to take up 90% of my board's fixed width, and this parses the answer fields in many cases.

Is it possible to format it like this:

Question
Description

Answer #1
Answer #2

Maybe even putting the answers in their own definable table with a separate "style" or background color.

Most important for me, though is the width issue, right now this excellent mod looks like crap on my boards. And my forum's width is 950 pixels, so as for why it is so crunched up, I am unsure.

Would it be hard to implement the ability to allow certain usergroups to edit a single form?

setishock

01-30-2009 08:22 PM

Bananalive that is perfect and thank you. Yes please let me have the xml file for that.
I will mark as installed now.

Edit: I'm not having any problems with the product itself, I just don't know how to make it work like I want it to.
I haven't figured out how to make the output clean of the questions.

Currently you have the ability to submit a reply form to a set thread id.

It would be really great if we could somehow make the thread id dynamic so the whole forum can use the same form. The form would be submitted depending where the user generates the form link from.

First off i want to say I love this mod. I use it as a recruitment/moderator application. I was wondering if you could add a part that would "Accept/Deny" an application and add "Accepted' or "Denied" to the thread title. And when it was "Denied" it would close the thread.

Currently what I do is make a reply saying if they were denied or accepted and close the thread.

Cant you use vbulletin prefix to achieve what your trying to do?

It wouldn't show link in preview but it should in the thread created.

The bbcode parser is separate, this is no option to parse urls with it.

You can modify the width by editing one of the formbit templates.

For instance:

open template form_formbit_textfield

Find

HTML Code:

<td class="smallfont" style="vertical-align: top; font-weight: bold;">$formbit[question]

Replace

HTML Code:

<td class="smallfont" style="vertical-align: top; font-weight: bold; width: 250px;">$formbit[question]

if(!$form['where'])
{
$errormessage = "Error, no threadid specified.";
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('STANDARD_ERROR') . '");');

username shouldn't be editable, check it has the code readonly="readonly" in the question

Use 'Answer BBcode' [size=+1] or something similar

This is probably a difficult one to answer, but i have put a button in my post bit that eventually will link to a form (will sort out how to do this later!), what i would like to do is post the form results to a custom bbcode tag in the original (the post that the button was clicked in) post, is that possible, or if thats not possible, is it possible to post to a forum as a new (not editable by ordinary members) thread?

Big ask i know.

Simon Lloyd

01-31-2009 04:31 PM

with this:

Quote:

Thread/ PM/ Email Title:
If left blank then the Thread/ PM title will be the same as the form title. You can use the following variables in the title: {username}, {userid} and {q_*}. For {q_*} replace the question id with the *, for example to show question 1's output you would use {q_1}.

can i use {q_1} - {q_2}
So that the title may look like "My Tip - Todays Tip" ?

HTML Code:

If you're wanting the button to edit the thread then this modification couldn't do it. It could with a bit of tweaking reply to thread which post is in.

The alternative is possible, just make sure forum permissions are set to cannot edit posts (for ordinary members).

Thanks for posting back so quick!, for the last part {Q...etc great as thats what i have done, and thanks for the code for button link (i'll try to work that one out), i have set up a forum to accept the form as i thought the other would be too difficult, all i need to do now is work out how to show an icon in the post that the button was clicked in perhaps with a link behind it to the form, again not your problem as your forms work great, could you explain what the new items are for? the Form Hooks? and what can i use to put in the Custom form output?, is it possible for the vbulletin editor response to appear in a custom bbcode that i have? (it's a bit like the quote bbcode only has a custom colour and pic)

The custom form output accepts any forum bbcode you have and also macroses, for the questions and answers.

Bananlive, sorry to keep calling on your time but i created a form but it didn't create a thread title and the sections are shown right against the titles here http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/top-tips/57075-a.html i have upgraded your account at my forum to admin so you can check the edit of the form and what i may have done wrong.

Uses the # numbers

For Example:

Quote:

1. What application is this for?
(Dropdown Select) #8

{q_8}

For the sections use \r\n for line breaks

New output: http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/to...cess-test.html

If you create a post of format you want I'll try and write the custom form output for you.
