If you go to Edit Form, scroll down to Form Permissions, have you changed anything?

Mate thank you so much i missed that section and that has fixed it all up, thank you very much..

Excellent Banana! That resolved so much. I'm afraid I just don't know enough php to solve that simple little thing, arg.

One more thing, is it possible to make the text box entries do a line return (not have the answer right after the question). So single line box's would have the answers right after the question (which I have now), but multi-line questions will have their answers under the question. Its just a cosmetics thing for me. I would like to do a line return after the answer for multi-line questions also.

God this is really an amazing addon brother, it looks GREAT...

I was looking at the post in the forums, and my OCD kicked in. Do you know if its possible to write bbcode that will make the forum post into tables? So they are all even, kind of like tabing forward so the Answers are all started at the same place down the page.

I know it may be a silly thing to ask, I was just curious.

You would need a BB code [table] for that, not sure if one is avaliable for vB 4.

Also, is there a way for me to update their "Display Usergroup" to the usergroup (18) they are added to? I've done coding with membergroups before, but I've never seen anything update the display part.

Fun stuff, thanks!

Woops it shouldn't have removed all other membergroups, there was a little mistake in the code . But if thats what you wanted then that alright

PHP Code:

if ($complete)  
{
$user = $userinfo = $vbulletin->userinfo;
$newmembergroupid = '18';
$display_usergroup = $user['membergroupids'] = $newmembergroupid;

$userdata =& datamanager_init('User', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_STANDARD);
$userdata->set_existing($userinfo);
$userdata->set('membergroupids', $user['membergroupids']);
$userdata->set_usertitle( 
$user['customtitle'] ? $user['usertitle'] : '', 
false, 
$display_usergroup, 
($user_usergroup['genericpermissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_genericpermissions['canusecustomtitle']) ? true : false, 
($user_usergroup['genericpermissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_genericpermissions['cancontrolpanel']) ? true : false 
); 
$vbulletin->userinfo['membergroupids'] = $user['membergroupids'];
$vbulletin->userinfo['displaygroupid'] = $newmembergroupid; 
$userdata->save();
}

); 
$vbulletin->userinfo['membergroupids'] = $user['membergroupids'];
$vbulletin->userinfo['displaygroupid'] = $newmembergroupid; 
$userdata->save();
} 


That didn't work either. It's still removing the user from all membergroups and it didn't successfully set the user to the new displaygroup either. My goal is to have them removed only from one group (17).

Is there a way to use one of the questions as a variable for this? I'd like to enter an userID in one of the questions, let's say question 1. When I enter that userID and submit, it will specifically remove that user from group 17 and and them to 18. As well as update their displaygroup to 18.

Fantastic mod - this is exactly what I've been hoping for!

Two queries though:

1. Guests get the following message "The string you entered for the image verification did not match what was displayed." - however no image verification is displayed.

2. I have a lot of questions in my form so could you add the option to have horizontal scrolling of the results table?

Thanks
