* INSTALLATION *
-------------------
1) Upload the contents of the 'upload' folder to your forum's root.
(If your forum's location is http://www.example.com/forums/, the root is /forums/)

2) Depending on your server configuration, you will need to change the permissions of the advappfiles folder to either 775 or 777

3) Import the product XML file (product-advapp.xml) into the Product Manager in AdminCP.

4) Take some time to set the options, application types and application postions in the new Application Forms area of AdminCP.
(It's really not that hard!)

5) Make sure this modification is marked as 'Installed' on vBulletin.org!
(If you want to get notices from me about updates for this modification.)

* UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS *
-----------------------------
1) Upload the contents of the 'upload' folder to your forum's root.
(If your forum's location is http://www.example.com/forums/, the root is /forums/)

2) Import the product XML file (product-advapp.xml) into the Product Manager in AdminCP and be sure "Allow Overwrite" is set to 'Yes'.

3) vB 4.2.x ONLY - Go to ACP->Settings->Options->Application Form Settings and set 'vB 4.2 Community Menu Update' to 'Yes'.

UPGRADING TO VERSION 1.3.8 or HiGHER
Depending on your server configuration, you will need to change the permissions of the advappfiles folder to either 775 or 777

If you have edited the advapp_application template, you need to revert the template before upgrading to 1.3.8 or higher.
Once the upgrade is complete, you can re-apply your changes to that template.

Do you have questions to be answered defined for the application? (that error says your submitting an application without any questions).

Go to ACP->Application Forms->Application Postions and click on Questions for the postition that's giving you the error. There probably aren't any questions there.

Yay, Great job adding a question sorter!

Is it possible to leave a question blank? I wanted to have it possible for someone to leave a comment or not but tried it kept asking me to leave something in the section...

Is it possible to have it where someone could click on a answer to chose all answers above or below the answer?

And one last would be to add it where you can have the questions and answers be different colors... And or have it post it in the forums with different colors...

Thanks!

This has always been possible. Just don't enter anything in the Error section when creating a question.

I don't know about this one. Let me put it on my list and think about it.

You mean something like this for the post?

What is your real name?: Jim

So far as the questions and answers in the form itself, I'll really have to think that one over too. Those colors are controlled by the Style settings for a site and could end up messing things up for people.

Yes that is exactly what I was talking about something to majorly separate the posted answers from the questions...

I was just thinking in regards when you put multiple answers is it possible to have an option for it post the answers in a column under the question rather then a row?

What size Crater did the Meteor leave? Enormous Crater, Huge Crater, Big Crater, Little Crater, Small Crater, Tiny Crater

What size Crater did the Meteor leave?
Enormous Crater,
Huge Crater,
Big Crater,
Little Crater,
Small Crater
Tiny Crater


That last was just an idea have no issues the way things are with the way the answers look just thought for some with a lot of answers it might get a little ugly have everything all bunched up...

Thanks!

My Applications are not showing up in the Community Area or as a Nav Tabs. Everything is enabled. I re-installed as well.

EDIT: Belay my last.

Well I figured it out, but now it's hidden behind the Nav Bar tab. I can see it try to open, but I can't get to the application process.

Take a look, www.ClanPF.com.

It seems to be working fine for me when I go to select an application. Using IE:9.

If all you see is a very small box for the dropdown with nothing in it, then your usergroup doesn't have permission to access the 'Clan Application' application type.
