I'd also like to automatically close the threads posted using the forms, as soon as they submit the form, is that possible?

Thanks so much!

'Poll:' is from vbulletin as thread is a poll.

Import attached file and add to form hook: before submit

PHP Code:

$closed = true;

I'm in process of creating forms and collecting a long list of notices

For now, 3 small qwestions:

1. How to define date field value in template? My template looks like this:
---------
Пользователь: {username}
URL: http://forum.dev.rcdesign.ru/member.php?u={userid}

$qn[5]: $q[5]
$qn[6]: $q[6]
$qn[7]: $q[7]
$qn[8]: $q[8]
---------

All other fields are ok, but date returns "Array" instead. Tryed this one "$q[8][day].$q[8][month].$q[8][year]" - doesn't help too. Form is used to send email.

2. How to get user email for registered users? Didn't found variable.

3. Which $ variable to use instead of {username} and {userid}?

1. $qo[8]
2. {email}
3. either {username}, {userid} or $thisuser[username], $thisuser[userid]

[Vitaly]

Thanks.

What's the difference between $q[x] and $qo[x]? Is there any logic, or "qo" is reserved for date?

$q is how it is submitted, ie. as an array for date or as a number for dropdown select, whilst $qo is output or the text, ie. imploded date array, number converted into text, etc.

[Vitaly]

Ah... thanks... now i see, that have to use $qo[x] in template for safety.

One more problem with Date field. Got email with value, but it looks like this:

1[crap]13[crap]1976

"& #92 ;" - HTML code. It was instead of \

PS. If that's a bug, but not my mistake, please wait a couple of days, until i make complete buglist
