The following is what I have in my vB4.0.3

PHP Code:

<tr>
<vb:if condition="$threadinfo['threadid'] == 'XXXX'">
<td align="$stylevar[left]" valign="top" width="50%">
<fieldset class="fieldset" style="margin:0px">
<legend><b><font size="3">Search</font> <font size="2"></b></legend>
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="$stylevar[formspacer]" border="0">
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<tr>
<form action="search.php?do=process&searchthreadid=XXXX" method="post">
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">
<tr>
<td class=""><b><font size="2">Please enter a search word:</font></b><a name="goto_threadsearch"></a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="left">
<input type="hidden" name="s" value="{vb:raw session.sessionhash}" />
<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="{vb:raw bbuserinfo.securitytoken}" />
<input type="hidden" name="do" value="process" />
<input type="hidden" name="searchthreadid" value="$threadinfo['threadid']}'" />
<font size="3"><b>Find:</b></font> <input type="text" class="bginput" name="query" size="25" />&nbsp<input type="image" src="http://www.myforumaddress.com/images/sample.gif" alt="Search ."><br/>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</select></label>
</tr>
</fieldset></vb:if>
<br /> 


I have also tried the following too:

PHP Code:

<input type="hidden" name="searchthreadid" value="$threadinfo['threadid']}'XXXX" /> 


PHP Code:

<input type="hidden" name="searchthreadid" value="$threadinfo['threadid']}'XXXX'" /> 


PHP Code:

<input type="hidden" name="searchthreadid" value="$threadinfo['threadid']} == 'XXXX" /> 


Where XXXX is the threadID.

Please BA?

You should be using {vb:raw threadinfo.threadid}

<input type="hidden" name="searchthreadid" value="{vb:raw threadinfo.threadid}" />

Thank you.
I hope you will make update soon

[Cedric_FP]

I want to use the following code below which creates a new thread to also create 2 or 3 replies in the same thread with the same form output.

What code would I need to add? I've tried adding the code which adds a new post when choosing that option in the edit forms page, but that doesn't work (yet returns no errors).

Thanks

        }
    }

How would I also create replies to the thread created? The replies don't have to contain form data, they are just standard replies such as "Reserved".

Thanks.
