I think this has potential to work for entering listings that can be verified and then promoted to "articles" for a business review. the tricky part Will be to fill out a bunch of forms from a data base.

I was able to create most of the Fields I could probity do without the ckeditor if i was creative.

[ChuanSE]

I was wondering what regular expression is commonly used to check emailaddresses.

more specific, a regexp that allows x.x@x.x.x.tld

installed on 4.1.4 works great cheers bananalive another great mod

[Hendrik83]

I uninstalled it but it was a nice mod.

Used it only with the vB editor.

It stopped working with 4.1.4 and the update did not fix the vB editor.
No errors it just quickly shows the outline of the editor and then nothing.

I removed all mods but no luck.

did you try his 4.2.7 version? vb editor was supposedly working for some people on 4.1.4 with it?

I'm still waiting for an update, until then I'm back to multiline text field sadly.

It's kinda a bummer too because the full editor was such a nice feature

[Hendrik83]

Yes.

Other plugins with the new editor are working except this one.
I don't want to use multi line text fields.

[Crotan]

Well it's the same deal as the other mods that had to fix this, functions_wysiwyg.php was depreciated in vb 4.1.4, and is no longer distributed with vb files.

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:

Removed Files:
clientscript/cms_textedit.js
includes/class_editor_override.php
includes/functions_wysiwyg.php
packages/vbcms/bbcodehelper
packages/vbcms/bbcode/wysiwyg.php
packages/vbcms/controller/editor.php
packages/vbcms/editor
packages/vbcms/route/editor.php
packages/vbcms/wysiwyghtmlparser.php

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

[Hendrik83]

He said that its fixed except for some the new editor just won't show.

Sorry see my last post after I edited it.

If I had to guess those who have it working with 4.2.7 still have functions_wysiwyg.php on their servers, and those who don't do not (which is why it is blank). functions_wysiwyg is not the new editor and is a depreciated file and is not distributed with vbulletin files anymore.

This is an awesome addon! only one thing I have to ask. What would it cost me to get some sort of documentation with perhaps some examples on using the forms and setting them up.

Any one else willing to share parts of their forms?

Thanks
