Form Hook: Before Submit

PHP Code:

$threadtitle = str_replace("{param}", $hiddenfield1, $threadtitle);

$qo[59]

Where do I get the $qo number from, i.e. 59?

Thanks for all your help, again!

Answered : I should have read more carefully the description... Sorry for annoyance

Ok, I hate to ask what I think is a very dumb question. I've read through 19 of these 46 pages before I found someone that asked the same question I'm about to ask. All because I didn't want to sound dumb, but I can't take it anymore. My right arm is going numb from clicking and scrolling. I also cannot access the page misc.php?do=forms. Can someone PLEASE tell me what I have not done correctly? Everything is installed and I am able to set my usergroups and go through all the vb options settings. But once I click the link to view/create forms, no access. What am I missing in the description? It's driving me NUTS!

Are you getting a no permission message or what happens when you try to access forms.

Have you enabled these settings, by holding down your ctrl key while clicking the usergroups.

I'm getting this message:
you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.
Also, before I installed, I wanted to make sure this was backwards compatiblae with my v3.6.5 and it indicates that is is compatible. But my usergroup settings does not look like yours!

The usergroup (6) admins was already selected when I went to settings. I read directions earlier in this thread that said to hold ctrl key to select more than one, so figured I'd be able to do that. Nope, can't do that at all.

Hmmm strange that your does look different than mine, can you change the options in your usergroup setting or are they just stuck as your screen shot.
