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

Create Plugin: newthread_start

PHP Code:

if (in_array($forumid, array(1,2,3))) {
header( 'Location: http://www.your-site.com/forum/misc.php?do=form&fid=1' ) ;
}

You have to create question then go back to edit questions screen and then edit question to get the option for options per row.

Nope, deliberate.

Great product, banana, thank you.

Would it be hard to make another option for this form to update user profile fields with the answers?

Hi i think i'm having problems, when my members try to use the forum it says

vBulletin Message

test, 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.

And i have made it so that users CAN view and use it, I cant think what could be wrong, ive tried everything i can think of, also i get this message when i click 'add new user' in the admin panel

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in [path]/admincp/user.php(544) : eval()'d code on line 11

i can still access the page, it just says this right at the top, could this have anything to do with why its not working?


Edit: also i should mention i can access the page fine, but I'm administrator
thank you.

Check you have no usergroups selected on 'Edit Form' (hence disabling this feature)

Have you tried disabling this mod? If so do you still get the error? (This mod does not run or change anything in the admincp)

Sorry that's not possible.

Hello,
I installed your modification, "Easy Forms", and my forum is right-to-left aligned, but the forms are still aligned left-to-right.
Can you please tell me how can I change it to r-t-l?

Import attached file

Can forms created by forum owners be used on any other forum owners site, or will they only work on the forum they were created on.

If you export a form you can transfer the form, but some of the question hash numbers will be different (for custom output, thread title, etc.)
