Instructions
[hr].[/hr]

• Import the product file through your admincp.
• Go into your vboptions section and you will find 3 sections. I will briefly outline them below:

Elricstorm's World of Warcraft Configuration Settings

• Houses all of the generic settings for your form, including name, summary options, redirect options, and many more features.

Elricstorm's World of Warcraft Form Settings

• Houses all of the settings for your form, including faction, level access, and toggle on/off settings for sections and all questions.

Elricstorm's World of Warcraft Form Style Settings

• Houses one font, and 4 color header sets that you can color code.

Once finished, remember to write down whatever name you set in the configuration setting for your "What is the default URL for your form?". The default is "wow_form". In order to access your form you need to set a URL link to:

http://yourdomain.com/yourforums/new...hp?do=wow_form

.. with the ending only changing if you decide to change this configuration setting in vboptions.

All of the vboptions have full title/descriptions so understanding what they do and how to work them should be a piece of cake, even for the most novice of users. If, however, you still have questions or concerns, please direct them here. Please remember that I only provide support for those that click "INSTALL".

By clicking INSTALL you not only receive support but anytime I make a newer version or provide feature updates, you receive them via mail.

Changes
[hr].[/hr]

Version 1.0.1 Fixes

• Fixed the question 3 and question 4 answers as they were pointing to incorrect variables.

Version 1.0.1 Changes

• Completely vbphrased all English and gaming terms in the addon. You can now adjust phrases and change the wording for yourself. This was especially important for European communities that might want to change the languages.
• Go into admincp->languages and phrases-> and perform a search against the product using the "w" character as the search term. You will find all of the phrases that are editable here. The terms are "wow_form_(etc)".

Version 1.0.2 Changes & Fixes

• Fixed vboptions for groups being checked even when toggled off. Now if you toggle groups ON, it only works if you actually add group numbers, and if you toggle it off, it does not check for groups.
• Fixed answer template for newattunement keys.
• Fixed linking for what you enjoy most to being linked with the timezone enable.
• Fixed/Added vbphrasing for HEROIC, RAID, etc. keyphrases on answer template.
• Addon is now completely phrased or optioned.

Version 1.0.3 Fixes

• Fixed the list problem with the answer template for BC Instances
• Fixed the answer template variables for answers 27 and 28.

Hi Everyone..

Been a long time since I revisited my own modification. I've been working heavily and haven't had much time to do much of anything programming wise. I just now got back into gaming and have been designing a custom Age of Conan vbulletin theme skin and also creating a new recruitment application form for that game. I still play World of Warcraft, but only on a very limited basis.

The two biggest issues I think most folks have been talking about here are the new security token issues with 3.7x. I saw a fix outlined here and yes, that works fine. I've fixed it for the AoC recruitment app but I wanted to touch base with some other areas of this one.

I will more than likely update the WoW recruitment form for 3.7x as I place the AoC one up.

If anyone has suggestions for the upcoming changes, please post them here and I'll be looking at things to come.

My new AoC guild site is located at http://praetorianknights.net . Check it out if you want to.

When are you planning on putting up the AOC recruitment form?

Is there an easy way to use this mod to have two separate applications? We have very different questions sets depending on whether the applicant wants to raid or just be a casual player.

Thanks in advance...

PS - I did copy the form, hooked to newthread_start, and named something new. But the cpadmin settings for questions don't give any option to edit one form vs. the other.

Works great!

Question though, I am having it post to a forum. The trouble that I am having is I have a dark background and I cant see the questions. The App. its self if perfect, but when I go to the forum that I have it posting to that is where I can't see the letters of the questions. I can see the answers though. Can someone point me in the right direction to change the colors of the text of the submitted application?

[mikeylikesitz]

any plans on updating this?

@ Samual, the option is in your AdminCP --> VBulletin Options --> Elricstorm's WoW Form Style Settings

Fantastic! I had to modify heavily to suit my needs however it works perfectly! (Tournament Site for bf2142 & COD4, using as a Request to Join application and special thanks for the custom questions as it saved me some code work!)

[taito]

any idea if this will be update for Wrath for WoW? If not could anyone tell me how to add in the new level cap and the new class?

[alliancedie]

are you going to have an update for WOTLK

[Ragefire]

Another request for a Wrath update or instructions on how to edit

[FluidG]

I added the WoTLK options in the templates and phrases but the additions do not show in the form. Anyone know if you have to reimport the changes in a remade XML file?
