2. Do I use the hook feature to force the use of a particular form for the forum rather than say the standard thread post or reply ( I have a form for each)

3. This is probably ambitous but I would like to do more with emailing the form as well as posting to the thread. I would like to have it as a pdf with its own format - the idea here is listing a property for sale in the forum, and generating certain info in to a flyer that could be put in the window of the property but the format of the flyer wouldn't be the same as how it showuld be viewed in the thread.

1. If you only have a few sub-forums it would be easier for you to copy the form for each sub-forum.

2. You do not use the Form Hooks for this, instead use vBulletin hooks

Re-Directing the New Thread:

Create plugin newthread_start

PHP Code:

if (in_array($forumid, array(1,2,3)))
{ 
header( 'Location: [url]http://www.your-site.com/forum/misc.php?do=form&fid=1[/url]' ) ; 
} 


Change 1,2,3 for appropriate forumids.

Re-Directing the Reply:

Create plugin newreply_form_complete

PHP Code:

  if (in_array($threadinfo[threadid], array(1,2,3)))
{ 
header( 'Location: http://www.your-site.com/forum/misc.php?do=form&fid=1' ) ; 
} 


Change 1,2,3 for appropriate threadids.

3. this is too advanced for Easy Forms
