What shell I say. A very neat and professional work, which will help non-internet-experienced Users to publish structured data with more ease.

Thanks a lot

Hi ,

Can the following happen with what we have so far ?

1.) New user shows up and sees the form but is not able to see the forum by backing up the address. Right now I can't get the two to work together, it seems the view form permission is the same as the view forum permission. I may be wrong and just haven't been able to decipher the settings I'm looking for. Please advise.

2.) Fills out the form or starts to.

3.) Gets prompted to register before they can submit the form which starts a new thread.
( popup register form maybe or a popup link )

4.) Registers and is then returned to the form where they can submit it.

5.) Submits form and is directed to the new thread still not being able to see the rest of the forum.

Basically, I only want new users to be able to post the form to a new thread and then limit their activity on the site to that single thread.

Is any of this possible ?

I love this mod but is there any way to set it for unregistered users (guest) to fill it out kinda like useing it as a clan member application? Also how to you rename it?

Thanks alot.

After submitting an app i get this error:

error at top of page:

Warning: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in [path]/misc.php(100) : eval()'d code on line 2276

Warning: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in [path]/includes/functions_newpost.php on line 394

vb message:

I got that error also I think it just means that one of the fields doesn't have enough characters in it, I think 10 was the minimum. I'm a novice at this though but give it a try.

[luggz]

Nope i got it its the forum ID that you need to enter example 32 12 etc etc you can find that in the admin panel under forums at the top. this all works great thanks again still would like to know how to get guest fo be able to use this and rename it.

Unregistered users/ guests can use it you allow them permission to view forms.

What is it you are trying to rename?

I think what you are trying to do is too complicated for this modification.

i get repetitive answers like for example i have just installed it now, and when some one fills the complete form the answers goes to a post (all ok with it) but the answer of the last question multiply itself and it does not give the right answer since it will be the same for all questions.... what can i do? thanks.

Hi, just checking,
1) can this be installed on normal websites without vBulletin?
2) can I create the form on the vBulletin and then paste the code onto a seperate web page on the website?

Please help advice.

Thanks
