Hi, if the form is set to start a new thread and the user default subscription setting is set to subscribe them to the threads they post in, it does not subscribe them to the thread. If the same user starts a thread the conventional way then it does subscribe them to it, is there any way to get the subscription to work with the form submit ?

Strange. I tried it with the main admin account and it still didn't update the display name. I don't use custom display names. I'm confused on that one. Must be some option on my forums then since the main admin should be able to do anything.

EDIT: OHHHH, I see what it does now. It changes the users "User Title" directly. Nice. It works for the main admin and the other user. I initially meant changing the "Display Usergroup" because I thought that would have to control the "User Title" field. This is great. I'm going to play with it and see what else I can get it to do. Thank you.

I'd like to require the userid field to only accept 1-4 numbers. I tried entering the following for the Regular Express: [0-9]{1-4}
That is causing some red text to appear over the question when entering anything into the field. Is the regular expression wrong or?

Is there a way to to add bbcode to just one question's answer? the option under "Form BB code and Custom Output" adds bbcode to every answer and or question.

Hi,

When I do export from the VB3 forum, and after that I want to import the xml file, it gives an error that the file is not correct or not found.. Can this be solved ? Thanks.

So, I read through most of the questions and did not find an answer. Hopefully I didn't miss it and now asking again...

I am trying to use this a a rating system for products. I want to have a forum with a category and then a place for users to view the results of a product form and be able to fill out that same form and then re-directed back to the results page.
EXAMPLE:
root forum/"rate it" forum/bumpers/x_company bumper/ Here I want users to view the form results (as a poll?) and be able to fill out the form too. Then get re-directed back to the results.

Thanks for your patience, I am pretty new to forums and forms.

How do you get this to post to a thread? I'd like to use the form as part of a thread where people can click on it and submit. However every time I clock "post new thread" or "post in thread" nothing happens. Any idea?

Also I can't delete any questions in the form. I can edit questions, but I can't delete them. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Have you uploaded easyforms.js to your server?

Is your browser's javascript enabled?

Set permissions for everyone to view form results in Easy Forms Options.

Tick the box 'Redirect user after form is submitted' on Edit Form page

Set 'URL of webpage user is redirected to:' on Edit Form page
