Great idea and works great as feedback form with a floating image linked as a target to the form.

Nice one

Bug?

Options per row, does not show when creating a radio button or check box question.
You have to create question then go back to edit questions screen and then edit question to get the option for options per row.

Thanks, I've sent you an email via this site

I have a forum with prefixes.
It seems that this hack can't handle a forum with prefixes or do I miss something?
By the way this is a very good job after all!

Custom form output.

How do you make it pull the text that was next to the selected radio button, at the moment i can only get it to display what number radio button was picked eg: 1 2 or 3

Slightly related...

Does anyine know how i would make the "new thread" link point to a specific form for different sub-forums?

i.e. I want to use the forms as a template for posting new classifieds in the for sale forum but have the new thread link go to a different form if trying to post from the wanted section

[Simon Lloyd]

Just change the new thread button in your particular forum and add the link to the form id like this

PHP Code:

<a href="http://www.yourforum.com/forums/misc.php?do=form&fid=1" /> 


this will point to form id 1 (fid=1)
