Step 2. Upload the files in the upload folder.
Step 3. Do the edits located below
Step 4. Edit the newly added options in admincp as you please
Step 5. Enjoy the hack.

F.A.Q
Q. How do i get extra fields to show in the "edit post" page?
A. This is only available in the premium version.

Q. If i do not want the fields to be shown automatically, can i do it manually?
A. You can manually show fields in threads or posts by using $thread[fieldx] in the postbit or showthread template. Replace x with the ID of the field you want. To find the ID of the field go to admincp >> Extra Threadfields >> Extra Fields Manager, and hover over a field. The number after fieldid = will be the id of your field.

Q. I updated all of the options, i installed it perfectly, i did all edits, and still the options are not showing when i go to add a new thread. What do i do?
A. It is believed that you have a hack interfering with this one. Take away the edit that you did for putting $extrathreadfields inside the newthread template, and do this instead:

Search for:

Code:

        <!-- / subject field -->

Add below:

Code:

        <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" class="fieldset">$extrathreadfields</table>

Enjoy the hack.

Did you make the 4 required template edits, and for every skin you currently use?

If User buy the Pro Version and asked in the official Support Board for a lot of Weeks about the port to VB4. And no Answer comes from the Coder, it?s not a good sign.

I think, that Paid Addons, must be ported to vb4 or the coder must say that the Addon are will not ported.

Not ported paid addons blocked in my eyes, the User that will update here Boards to vb4.

No question went unanswered for weeks on the Pro website. In fact, I don't even know how you'd think you can make that assumption being that you don't even have access to paid support.

Moving on, I will be updating both the light and premium versions to vB4 very soon

Yes, it?s not Weeks, its Month

There is a Thread called VB4 compatible? Started at 11-22-2009, 05:22 PM
Follows from 3 Answers from other Users. Last at 01-15-2010, 06:26 PM

Then on 01.16.2010 a Answer from the Coder

For Customers, they would buy any Addons is this imho the Wrong way.
Communicating with the buyers is the most important.

Ok, it?s Off Topic, But this is my opinion

You are, of course, talking about a Pre-Sales question, and not a support question. And you are also assuming he already had the answer when it was first asked. Communicating with buyers is great. When you haven't bought anything yet, you get your answer when you get your answer. There's all those paying customers to deal with, ya know.

question: 3.8.1 version

i want to require a field only if a certain thread prefix is selected

for example if tread prefix is House for Sale, i want house address to be required
if prefix is House for Rent, i don't want the field to be required

how do i go about getting this done? ( im a novice, newbie level)
thanks in advance

Would love to buy it but few issues ,
1. I created required field , if it is not filed out user can still submit and is taken to msg page , the submit option should not work unless the field is filled out ,

2. I have over 200 forums , the Forums To Include This In option is kinda a joke with such forum amount , i thought that if I enter the main forum id in all sub forums will also have the field visible but no that is not the case.

3. Require fields for specific user groups option is also not there

So please advise if these options are in premium version so I can proceed with the purchase
