It doesn't appear to affect the functionality.

Fixed in attached file, or use

Hi

Just wondering how viable it would be to have Easy Forms run with this style?

How VB have implemented this looks rather different from their other templates.....

Guess I will also ask the iphone/android apps possibility?

Cheers

Can this mod in any way be used to add product pages with custom fields to the vB4 CMS?

i am having the form submitted to a forum that is moderated. but when the form gets submitted, the new thread shows up??

how can i have it go into the forum, but be moderated?

basically the form is ignoring forum rules - forum is setup to moderate all threads and posts, but form results get posted as new threads without being moderated.

I have two separate forms where the first form redirects to the second. The first form creates a new thread and I want the second form to add a post to that thread when completed, how do I obtain the previous threadid (if possible)?

Hey, really cool mod!

I have some questions though (I'm sure it's because I'm just incredibly stupid about all this).

1. What would I do to change the "Form" in the Navbar?
2. If I have a template edit I need to do for my Shoutbox to show up, where would I add these so in all these places my users could still be in the CBox (I've been just putting it below
   

   {vb:raw navbar}:

   but I haven't found that in any of the easyform templates....what am I missing?
