IS there a way to add an editable field on the output table?

So that I could use it for other mods to use the form, then I can add an answer to the output table later?

IE. they leave the last question blank, and i add that later?

EDIT: Just found out that you can edit form results. So i will just add a question to be left blank, and i can add in there later.

Thanks

To work correctly it should be making use of the new ckeditor.php

EDIT: Looking at the 4.2.7 xml, it's still making use of the old editor, and I'm guessing people that claimed it working still have the depreciated files on their server:

and those that do not have it working are either on a new install or removed the depreciated files, as far as I can tell Easy Forms 4.2.7 does not make use of the ckeditor

Nope. The includes/functions_wysiwyg.php file is still there and the mod still isn't working.

I had that file also and no editor.
We do not get it fixed because it works for the one making this mod.

No errors: This is how it looks like on 4.1.5

I have tried to remove all mods and styles but still not working.

Anyone else having a problem with Unregistered/Guest authors?

Since 4.1.4 PL2 all submissions that take longer than 15 minutes to complete (vb session timeout period) show up with a userid=0 and display as Unregistered/Guest thread authors. Perhaps the vb update was just a coincidence, but it started on the same day.

Since upgrading Easy Forms to 4.2.6, one of my forms isn't working properly. This section of the before submit isn't catching:

PHP Code:

if (stristr($qo['88'], "Large")) {
$form['forumid'] = 112;
}
elseif (stristr($qo['88'], "Mini") ) {
$form['forumid'] = 113;
}
elseif(stristr($qo['88'], "Tiny")) {
$form['forumid'] = 114;
} 


I haven't changed anything else (and other parts of the same before submit are working)... how can I fix this?

ETA: Fixed it... changing the $form['forumid'] to just $forumid seems to have corrected it. Can anyone tell me why this happened? I'm happy to have figured it out through trial and error, but I would love to learn.

Hi great mod and thanks, however, I've got a particular task I need to do that I cannot seem to do currently within this mod. What I am trying to do is change the forumid selection on the form edit page to allow multiple locations for an output on the one response, currently it only allows for the selection of one location. An example of what I am trying to do is shown below:

User Completes form and submits >>> forums a, b and c are selected as destination forums for a thread >>> the responses are put into a new thread in forums a, b and c

any assistance would be appreciated.

[leia]

3clipse, that's what the bit I posted in the comment directly above yours is for. You can just paste that into the Before Submit box, then change the search text and the forumids. (Don't forget to change $form['forumid'] to just $forumid.

I've tried this with some adjustments to remove the search filtering as i'm not trying to add a filter to direct a form response to a certain response, what i'm trying to do is get an exact duplicate of the thread across 3 forums as users with various permissions need to comment on responses to the form. After removing the search filter the problem i come across is that it sends to 1 forum, shows up in the second but redirects to the first then the third location it does not show up at all.

[SpikedRocker]

Upon Updating to 4.1.5 we've noticed on forms that redirect people to any link on completion of the form no longer works. It says it is an invalid URL and does not go on from there. We've even gone on to test this with directing to a well known URL such as google.com and we get the same problem.

Any help would be great!

I just upgraded to 4.1.5 PL1 and I'm having trouble with my "Field using vBulletin editor" questions because users are not able to type in the box, they box is grated out and therefore my users can't complete and submit their applications

Any fix for this?
Thank you
