I am having the same problem. I have triple checked all the permission settings for the usergroup, forum, easy form and the form itself. It was working fine and all submissions were being approved and now suddenly they are submitted unaproved.

Any ideas???

Thanks

I'm having trouble with spammers filling out these forms,
Is there any way I can add a captcha or security question?

Matty since Ban seems to be temporarily preoccupied I'm trying to help a bit as Ive spent hours reading all the posts and making notes.
This feature is called something like "Human verify" or "Human verification"
- try searching this mod on "human." (Search mod is top right.)

Ban thanks for your outstanding work both code and support.

I would like to make a post appear in multiple destinations - a pre-set list of threads for the form.

I tried putting a comma separated list of thread ID numbers in the box
"Threadid where Post is Created:"
It sent the post to the first ID only so clearly not coded yet.

Can this be changed so I can put a list of thread IDs.

I am having the exact same problem with my form #2. My form #1 is working just fine, and it is hardly different. My error message is
The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 3 characters.

All field minimums are set to 0. Members were complaining that they filled in the form completely, and got back that response. I did also when I did a test.

I found out what I did wrong - I had copied the fields from my Form #1, and the field numbers are different in each form (of course). So, create new forms from scratch, not by copying your old ones.

This is amazing. 5/5 mod, nominated, thank you for this.
