Ok I want to start over again... Same type of thing though. This time the user will open up the "Membership Application" and they will fill out the form.

The default forum title when they open the form is "Membership Application". What I would like to have happen is when they hit the submit form button, I would like the forum title to change to "Membership Application: <question2> <question1>"

So if they answered question1 with Submarine and question2 with Yellow, the new subject line when submitted would read,

Membership Application: Yellow Submarine (doable?)

Sorry, not set up for that.

Just to clarify: this means I can't use take the content of an external form and post it into vBulletin using this hack?

This hack gives you a form to add info into vb.

mrgrimes 04-05-2006 01:24 PM

Yes, but can it be tweaked so that the info can be added to vB from a form hosted elsewhere? Currently the form itself has to be located in a thread within vBulletin; I would like to be able to put the form in a news item of an external page but for the results to be posted to a thread within vBulletin.

I really like this, it makes something that I was trying to do very convenient.

HOWEVER, I am not a php genius (I use python a lot) so when you say "DO NOT USE QUOTATION MARKS AS IT WILL CAUSE A PARSE ERROR" that is not very descriptive. I thought that meant DO not use any quotation marks at all, when in reality it means only use them once. I finally saw SULLY02's post which explained this a little better.

Version 3.4: (04/05/2006)
  • [FIXED] Removed extra line from template.
  • [ADDED] WYSIWYG editor now works besides the regular editor.
  • [ADDED] Preview.
  • [CHANGED] Subscriptions now take from user default setting.

It's hard to upgrade if you made lots of template changes. There are many changes to the template do to the preview feature.

I'm going to be using this form for Guild Applications, I have a couple of questions.

New applicants won't be registered on the site so can I remove the section that takes the vB username?

Secondly, the editor doesn't appear for anyone that isn't logged in, any ideas why? When I test the form as a logged in user the editor works fine, as a guest you just get a text input box.

EDIT: One last thing (honest) when I tried to add 8 choices to the drop down menu question, I only got the first 3 appear (I'm a real newbie to all this) did I do something wrong with the variables?

To remove or add things, you have to edit the templates also.

VB by default doesn't allow unregistered users to use the editor. They just see a plain box.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll have another play about tonight see if I can get it all sussed out.

New to all things vB and have a very demanding WoW Guild that want lots from their site, so steep learning curve.

After applications it's time to tackle some form of DKP system, just wish someone would integrate eqDKP and vB.
