Seem to be getting an error on this with PHP 5.3:

PHP Fatal error: Cannot use object of type mysqli_result as array in /var/www/vhosts/URL/httpdocs/forum/forms.php on line 1242

Line 1242 is:

PHP Code:

$formbit['value'] = $q[$formbit[id]]; 


Everything I've read re that error relates to the query_read line a few lines up - whether vB or not vB:

PHP Code:

$formbits = $vbulletin->db->query_read("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "formbits WHERE fid = $fid ORDER BY displayorder ASC")); 


If I change this to :

PHP Code:

$formbits = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($vbulletin->db->query_read("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "formbits WHERE fid = $fid ORDER BY displayorder ASC")); 


...I can get the page but not the actual form itself. Replacing all similar lines has no effect either. Anyone else had this, edited the forms.php file and got this working?

From the above posts, it looks like this doesn't work on 4.2.2 and/or PHP 5.3?

That's the combination I'm using...

These forms are still working perfectly on my 4.2.2 installation. (Thanks, banana! It's been a life saver!)

I have a question, though. I'm creating a form where I'd like my members to post their forms anonymously. That is, not under their usernames. I am happy to have their forms posted with my own, instead, if needed. (It's for a Secret Admirer event for Valentine's, and I don't want them to spoil the mystery by having the form posts reveal their identities.)

Is this possible?

Post to thread

Then add to hook: Form Hook: Before Submit:

PHP Code:

$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] = 0;
$vbulletin->userinfo['username'] = 'Guest';

Banana, you are a legend. Thank you so much for all that you do for us! It's appreciated.
