I need a way of associating the selection to a forumID. Thanks again!

I've tried various ways of getting this to work, and all I get is some wierd errors...

I have PM'd Abe1, but have yet to hear anything back.
If you would like to Collab on it, let me know.

I have yet another question I'm hoping be answered with relative ease. Is it possible to add a drop down menu to a form that posts either a new thread or reply to a thread in a specific form based on the selection of the drop down?

Example: Selections could be The Lounge, vBulletin Discussions, Service Requests, etc. Submitting the form would create the thread in the drop down selection. Thanks!!

There is a WYSIWYG editor already.

I dont have time to write up all the info. Basicly make sure you are using the right varible. It has to be imported the same way as all other answers are imported.

Yes, I meant for the forms.

There is a WYSIWYG editor in the form. What are you talking about????

:) Apologies, we're missing each other....I know there's a WYSIWYG editor when you're entering/submitting information within a form. But it would be great to have one when creating the forms. (form and formanswers in addition to the separate plugin/hook that needs to be created)

I know it's probably a huge task to undergo something like this.

Can you help us figure out the drop down box question?

so I need to have the forumID in the answer templates?

I didn't put it in there because I thought it wouldnt matter, I will try what I was doing last time and see if I can get it to work.

Does this ONLY work on 3.6?

I think if you try to import this into vb3.5 you may get an error.

Also, I'm not sure the attachments work the same in vb 3.5

Ok, I have tried just about everything I can think of, I get these errors when submitting -

Code:

Warning: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in /includes/functions_newpost.php on line 348



Fatal error: Unable to proceed with save while $errors array is not empty in class vb_datamanager_pm in /includes/class_dm.php on line 763

This happens when I have send PM enabled. With my addon's for the drop down forum menu.

Here is a snip of my code I have on my form now.

PHP Code:


		
			
// Part 1 

$vbulletin->input->clean_array_gpc('p', array( 

'dropforum1' => TYPE_STR, 

'dropforum2' => TYPE_STR,

There is more code after this, this is only the relevent selections.

PHP Code:


		
			
// Part 2 

$dropforum1 = $vbulletin->GPC['dropforum1']; 

$dropforum2 = $vbulletin->GPC['dropforum2'];

There is more code after this, this is only the relevent selections.

PHP Code:


		
			
//FORUM TO POST NEW THREAD IN 

//You CAN make this number a variable. You can have a drop down menu or in the link like do=form&f=1. Make sure you add it the variables list. 

$formforumid = "$dropdownforum1"; 



$dropforum1 = "2"; 

$dropforum2 = "4";

Form Template additions

PHP Code:


		
			
<tr>

<td class="alt1" valign="middle">

<b>$dropdownforum1</b>:

<td class="alt1" valign="middle" colspan="2">

<select name="dropdownforum1">

<option value="$dropdownforum1" <if condition="$dropdownforum1 == $dropforum1">selected="selected"</if>>$dropforum1</option>

<option value="$dropdownforum1" <if condition="$dropdownforum1 == $dropforum2">selected="selected"</if>>$dropforum2</option>

</select></td>

</td>

</tr>

Form Answers template

PHP Code:


		
			
$dropdownforum1

$dropforum1

$dropforum2

I dont know why it isn't working, I'm sure its something small I have missed, I am using Drop Down choices throughout the form, so I know my coding is correct for that on my form. I'm just not sure where I missed something or what, but maybe this can help someone else out.

I'm also willing to pay for service to help me get this form working with the Drop Down Choice for which form to post to.
