Executing this MySQL query may be also required for latest version. It is broken in archive:

ALTER TABLE `f_custom_thread_forms` ADD `required` TINYINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT '0';

I got it parsed incorrectly in the post :

<br /><br />
----------------------------------------<br />
<b>source</b>: some text<br /><b>related topic</b>: the hack<br />
----------------------------------------<br />

where it should be :
----------------------------------------
source : some text
related toipc : the hack
----------------------------------------

Hi,

I'd like to add a thread content language list as input field.

The user will have to chose among available languages that I'll have defined.

I'd like to do a multi-language forums site where all languages can reside in the same forums.

A bit like youtube, where you choose a language for your content and then you post it.

If it's not implemented in this plug-in, I think it would be a really interesting improvement.

An easy implementation would be to allow the user to define a list of choices separated by commas in the control panel and add a checkbox for select drop down or box.

And I don't know if it's easy but if you want to go further, your plug-in could also add the custom fields choices as criterias in vBulletin's advanced search feature.

Thanks

I thought that once the fields was set, it was not possible to come back and edit them...
and you can do that right away...
Meaning it is a nice hack, but useless for me as I want to require a validation from my customers. If they can come back and edit the fields in the thread your hack will not help me...

Anyone has an idea about where I could find some sort of "one way validation system" in a thread ?

ex : are you happy with our answer ? Yes or No.
--- and if it is yes, it stays yes

I installed the original hack without any modification and I keep having this :

----------------------------------------
----------------------------------------

in each first posts, including in the forums where the hack is not supposed to be active...

Any help would be appreciated a lot.

Hi all, i am having the display of the custom fields working fine when i post from a PC. however, when i tried doing it on a Mac, it doesn't seem to be reading the <br /> tags and ends up being like this:

<br /><br />
----------------------------------------<br />
value 1 value 2 value 3
----------------------------------------<br />

I understand in the previous posts that this is due to the xhtml tags not being read. I have tried the solution given but that makes me post from pc messed up, so any suggestion to make it owkr on a mac and pc?
