Form Hack · **Released**: 09-14-2006

Form Hack 4.1

Features:

Ever wanted an online form that a user can fill out, which when submitted gets:

Posted into a new thread in a forum of your choice
Create a new poll in the new thread with options of your choice
Posted as a reply in an existing thread of your choice
PMed to you or someone else
Emailed to an email address you specify
Choose to redirect to the post, thread or forum, or a custom thank you message
Choose to redirect to edit post
See a preview before they submit

Or any combination or all of the above?

Well, this is the hack for you!

You can use this for:

Moderator Applications
Quiz Submit Form which gets PMed to a moderator
Contact Form that goes to PM, email or thread
Guests to apply to be members
Report a Moderator form that goes as a PM to you
Guests can PM you for whatever reason
Order form to buy things
Donation form
News or Articles submissions that can go straight to a thread

Or anything you like - this hack is totally customizable via the AdminCP.

The beauty of this hack is that once you install this hack, to make a new form all you need to do is copy the main hook, rename it to whatever you want, edit the variables in the hook, and you have a totally new form!!! You do not need to touch the templates again, but can always create new ones and use different templates for different forms.

Format of the form:

One main input question
3 Radio buttons Choice questions
3 Normal text input questions
1 Drop down menu
3 Check boxes
1 Long answer question
1 VB message editor text box question
Upload attachments

This is customizable via the hook.

Also:

You can set the usergroups you want access to this form.
Depending on your forum permissions, if the new thread is in a public forum, members can reply to it. This hack allows a form to submit the new thread or post wherever you want it to go.
Force the user to answer all questions.

INSTALLATION
Easy - takes only a few minutes:

Import the XML into products. (admin cp -> Plug-in System -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product)
Edit the main plug-in - the instructions are all inside the hook itself, in the top half. Follow the instructions carefully!
To get to the form, go to: /newthread.php?do=form (change "form" to the name of your form if you have few)

Done!

Use this hack to make as many forms as you like!

Enjoy!

Updates:

Version 4.0: (09/15/2006)

I have a flash form and sends data via email. Would anyone know of a way to make a post in the forums by using the data sent by a flash form?

Part of my email.php

PHP Code:


			
<?php

$sendTo = "webmaster@website.com";
$subject = "Recruitment Form Submission";

$headers = "From: " . $_POST["firstName"] ." ". $_POST["lastname"] . "<" . $_POST["email"] .">\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
$headers .= "Return-path: " . $_POST["email"];

$game_name = "Game_Name: " . $_POST["game_name"]."<br>" ." Location: ". $_POST["location"];

mail($sendTo, $subject, $game_name, $headers);

?>

Error: Invalid Forum specified. My url is correct for sure.

When I install the custom form it takes down the unmodified original form, displaying the same error. The theme was also edited, but since the custom plugin made both forms crash it is the root of the problem, no? I can produce the template code if needed.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, especially after 3 nights of failure.

Thats in the Form template in your "Styles and Templates.

ComputerVitals · #**436** 05-01-2007, 10:04 PM

I added a if statement.
It will either show the bbuser[email] or a text input for them to add a email address.

this works great, shows in the post, and in the PM. Also the email you set in the hook sends like it should.
But I also want to send an email to the user that same form.
Any idea how?

$subject = "Recruitment Form Submission";



$headers = "From: " . $_POST["firstName"] ." ". $_POST["lastname"] . "<" . $_POST["email"] .">\r\n";

$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";

$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";

$headers .= "Return-path: " . $_POST["email"];



$game_name = "Game_Name: " . $_POST["game_name"]."<br>" ." Location: ". $_POST["location"];



mail($sendTo, $subject, $game_name, $headers);



?>

Yes it should be possible, but it will take some modifications. Zip yo files and upload T_Richardson. I shall take a look into implementing this. I was just thinking about creating some flash forms last month. Very busy so give me some time if you be interested.

Good luck

Can someone give me a hand? I am trying to add some more fields to this form. Under "normal question 1" I would like to add a few more questions. here is what I did but had no luck. What do I need to do to get these fields to show up?

// Part 1
$vbulletin->input->clean_array_gpc('p', array(
'normalanswer1' => TYPE_STR,
'normalanswer2' => TYPE_STR, (I added)

// Part 2
$normalanswer1 = $vbulletin->GPC['normalanswer1'];
$normalanswer2 = $vbulletin->GPC['normalanswer2']; (I added)

$normalquestion1 = "What is your Character's Name";

$normalquestion2 = "Character's Race"; (I added)

I have allot more questions that I would like to add. What am I missimg?

Now you have to look in your templates
"form" template

Look for:
[/code]
<tr>
<td class="alt1" valign="middle">
<b>$question2</b>:<br />
$explain2</td>
<td class="alt1" valign="middle" colspan="2">
<input type="text" size="30" value="$answer2" name="answer2" /></td>
</tr>[/code]

And adjust as needed. Or copy that and change the "$normalquestion2" Same goes for the answer2 values.

this works great, shows in the post, and in the PM. Also the email you set in the hook sends like it should.
But I also want to send an email to the user that same form.
Any idea how?

I got the the hook to send the form to the registered user as well. But.

I would like to put a link to the thread in the email.
how do I do that?
