http://localhost/forum/misc.php?user=bob

It seems to cut off the "do=form&fid=1" part but does add the "user=bob" part"
I'm kinda stuck on that one.

.
<form name="form" action="http://localhost/forum/misc.php?do=form&fid=1" method="get">
Username:
<input type="text" name="user" />
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>


Another question on this one.


Do I need to change anything in these codes to be able to use the form on the top of the page ?

When you say "use {param} in custom output" I really don't know what that means could someone explain that in a little more detail please ? . Sorry for my inexperience I am willing to pay/donate (to you or to your favorite charity), to anyone who can help me out with this.

Thanks,

<form name="form" action="misc.php" method="get">
<input type="hidden" name="do" value="form" />
<input type="hidden" name="fid" value="1" />
Username:
<input type="text" name="user" />
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

PHP Code:

$hiddenfield1 = $vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('g', 'user', TYPE_NOHTML);
if (empty($hiddenfield1))
{
  $errormessage = "Error, this form needs a username.";
  eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('STANDARD_ERROR') . '");');
} 


Custom output enables you to design your own layout using the parts of the form.

PHP Code:

$hiddenfield1 = $vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('p', 'hiddenfield1', TYPE_NOHTML);
$formoutput = str_replace('{param}', "$hiddenfield1", $formoutput); 


The alternative would be to use this code: (it justs adds the field like another question at the end of the form output)

PHP Code:

$formoutput .= $form[preq] . "Username" . $form[pstq];
$formoutput .= $form['prea'] . $hiddenfield1 . $form[psta];
