Why bother with an email to tell you that you got a PM, when you can enable the form to be emailed to you directly? :)

Because I like to get an email that I have a PM. I choose PM because its easier to save the answers. I fixed the problem I think. I just moved to a new server and on the old the catchall for emails was on but on the new server it was off so the email I used on my forum was bouncing.

So get the form to do both, PM and Email.

ooo nice, I hope its well documented. thanks ^_^

anyone have a working textarea wysiwyg replacement for this Mod ?????

Sorry if I missed this earlier but does anyone find that search function does not capture any unique keywords from the first post in the thread?

I implemented the form and realised the following:
- post form resulting in new thread
- do search for unique keyword in thread -> no results
- post some random reply to thread
- do search again for unique keyword -> still no results
- post random reply containing unique keyword
- do search yet again for unique keyword -> finally thread is listed in results

Help!! Anyone?

Hi,

Thank you for the great hack, I used it as a quiz form and its working fine except a bug..

when a memer does not answer all the questions (answer all is enabled) and try to go back, its seems resending the answers again and again..

I have a request too please..
How can I make it so a member can answer only one time, the next time he opens the page, he gets you have allready participated..

Regards.

I mentioned this bug and another bug a few posts earlier. The other bug is that the post count doesn't go up when a user uses the form. I posted a fix to that bug. This bug I am waiting for the developers help.

I did come up with a temporary solution. I have my member directed to the 'edit post' page. When they click 'save changes' the posts goes into the search.

Hi,

I am having trouble installing this hack. how do I add the 2 templates together in the text files, and where do I put them, I am running VB 3.0.3 ?

Many thanks

Hi,

Finally figured out how to install this hack. I have a slight problem now, I keep on getting this error message:

"..you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:"

etc

I have set the permissions to allow me access but I still receive the above, any ideas?

taffy

It would be nice to see what this is being used for and the code that surrounds it, I would like a application for mod form but I do not know how to edit the file

Make sure your usergroupid is allowed.

Hi Erwin,

The code looks like this at present, when I go to mydomain/forum/form.php all I get is a white page.

if (!in_array($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], array())) print_no_permission();

When I put my usergroupid into the code I get the error message above, I am not quite sure whether I am allowing or disallowing a group when I put a number into the above code.

Thanks,
taffy

Could somebody create me an moderators application form please

Chet

You haven't entered a usergroupid - delete the whole line if you want everyone to access it.

Hi Erwin,

I just started over again, and redone the templates etc, now I have a major problem with my forum, I can't go into any of the threads, if I give you an admin account on my forum can you have a look at what the problem is?

Just sent you a PM of my url, for you to have a look

Erwin, I have a small problem with

<tr>
<td class="alt1"><INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="radioanswer1" value="$radiochoice1a">$radiochoice1a</td>
<td class="alt1"><INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="radioanswer1" value="$radiochoice1b">$radiochoice1b</td>
<td class="alt1">If $radiochoice1b, what should we use? <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="radioanswer1other"></td>
</tr>

If I set all fields, it will not go thru. If I set it as 0, it will go thru but variable $radiochoice1b is not parsed.

Since we have two radioanswer1 choices (either 1a or 1b), it seems that the second choice 1b is not perceived as $radioanswer1. Could it be the reason why it is not going thru?

Hi Erwin,

Would it be possible to put this form directly on the create 'New Thread' button, so you come directly to the form instead of creating a new thread? I have requested a hack like this for a poll, but I am still waiting for an answer.

taffy

Instructions to do this is in the thread itself.

I can enter your threads with no problems.

I seem to have solved my problem by adding 'checked' to the first radio button

<tr>
<td class="alt1"><INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="radioanswer1" value="$radiochoice1a" checked>$radiochoice1a</td>
<td class="alt1"><INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="radioanswer1" value="$radiochoice1b">$radiochoice1b</td>
<td class="alt1">If $radiochoice1b, what should we use? <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="radioanswer1other"></td>
</tr>

Hi Erwin,

Thanks for the reply, but I do not understand what you mean, can you explain with a bit more detail.

taffy

@ Erwin

Did you even fix my bug I mentioned awile ago about threads and posts made by the forms dont get put on the search index?

It's not a bug because I use the mysql fulltext search on my site, not the searchindex, and I'm not about to modify the hack to do something which I don't require and cannot test.

How do I switch? Never saw an option.

Thanks, I've been looking for something like this.

Clicks Install. :)

I want to use this form for article hack. Mean that members who want to post a new article have to use this form to submit. Can anybody help me out how to do it plz??? Thanks in advance.

woohoo

:) Erwin, thanks again

any help?

I'll look into this on the weekend... no promises... ;)

:) Thank you, I appreciate it.

Erwin

I have 2 questions which may have been answered already but I was not able to find.

1. Can this hack be used to create a form which PM's the info to a specific user group chosen (all the members in the user group get the PM)?

2. Can I add 30 or more fields for questions and answers instead of the format you had in the attached image in the first post?

Yes to both, with modification. I'm not going to have time to do them though.

Thanks.. I will see what I can do myself. if i get stuck I will ask for help here.

Fantastic... love it!

Installed and working nicely.

THANKS! :)

Hmm.. I have a feeling I'm missing something super obvious ;).

I uploaded the files to my server and when I viewed form.php, it was completely blank.. Any ideas? :)

-Jonathan

Did you add the templates?

how do i get each form thats filled out to post in a certain area and given a custom post tittle defined in the form?

HELP!@@

Any U2 fans want to help me with this one? I'm looking to do a form that when in a certain forum (not all forums), when they click on new thread, a form comes up with various questions on particular live recordings like:

Date: (Drop downs)
Venue: (Text Box)
City/State/Country: (Text Box)
Setlist: (Text Box)
Taper?: (Drop downs YES/NO)
NTSC/PAL: (Drop down)
PC Authored/Standalone: (Drop down)
Notes: (Text Box)
Attach Screenshots: (Attach box, then creates thumbnails)

Then it creates a new thread, with the date, city and venue as the title, and all the info gets dumped into a new thread and people can reply to the thread with the thumbnail attachments at the bottom.

If someone wants to help, I could throw a few live DVD's into the deal :)
