vbmail($vbulletin->userinfo['email'], $threadtitle, $formoutput);
} 


Ok, I entered the code as you posted but it didn't work so I changed the "54" to the actual # of the question. That works, it will email the votes to the users email however the layout is badly messed up. There is no formatting after it submits...everything is on one line.

Made a donation for you help bananna. Thanks so much.

I was able to get it to work!

Ok, what if I had the option to PM confirmation to user instead of emailing it. How would I get it to do that and still submit to the threadid?

vBulletin's mail system must not allow formatting, but maybe the PM system would?

It can be custom formatted in the custom output, here's mine:

[CENTre][SIez=5][COLOR=black]Top Tip[/COLro][/SIze][/CENTre]
[FOtn=Arial Black][SIez=3][Uu]Submitted By:[/Uu] [/SIez][/FOtn][Ii]{q_14} [/Ii]
[Bb][Uu][FOtn=Arial Black][SIez=3]Date: [/SIez][/FOtn][/Uu] [/Bb][Ii]{q_16} [/Ii]
[Uu][FOtn=Arial Black][SIez=3]Tip Description[/SIez][/FOtn][/Uu]

[Ii]{q_10} [/Ii]
[Uu][FOtn=Arial Black][SIez=3]Posted Top Tip[/SIez][/FOtn][/Uu]
[bbcode][Ii]{q_12}[/Ii][/bbcode]

all bbcode changed so they dont parse here!

The PM system allows BBcode

PHP Code:

if ($vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] AND $complete) 
    {
        global $vbulletin, $botpermissions;
        $fromuserid = $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'];
        $fromusername = $vbulletin->userinfo['username'];
        $title = $threadtitle; 
        $recipients = $vbulletin->userinfo['username'];
        $message = $formoutput;
        $pmdm =& datamanager_init('PM', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY);
        $pmdm->set('fromuserid', $fromuserid);
        $pmdm->set('fromusername', $fromusername);
        $pmdm->set('title', $title);
        $pmdm->set('message', $message);
        $pmdm->set_recipients($recipients, $botpermissions);
        $pmdm->set('dateline', TIMENOW); 
        $pmdm->overridequota = true;
        $errors = $pmdm->errors;
        if ($errors) {
            foreach ($errors as $error)
            {
                $errorss .= $error. "<br />";
            }
            $errormessage = "Form failed to submit. The following error(s) occured: <br /> ".$errorss;
            eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('STANDARD_ERROR') . '");');
        }
        $pmdm->save();
        unset($pmdm);
    }

I'm not sure if you worked it out but there were meant to be [img] tags in the str_replace but they got removed

Whereabouts? For the questions?

[brainfood]

Thanks bananalive for the quick response on my other questions. I have that working now.

I have another question. When customizing the Custom Form Output:, I noticed that the customized output only applies to newly created thread posts. Is it possible to get the previous posts updated so they incorporated the customized Custom Form Output?

Thanks again!
