Yea, I would also like to see different sets of questions for the different positions people apply for.
Also, I have it set to make a post in a forum after they fill out an app.
Is there a way I can change the title of the thread?
Im looking for something easier like [USERNAME]'s XXXX Application where XXXX is the position they are applying for.
The post/pm/email subject is in the phrases. Look for genapp_subject and edit it. In that phrase {1} is the type of application set on the Settings page. {2} is the member who filled out the application. So using the default setting "{1} from {2}" would give you a message title of "Staff Application from Membername".
Because I really hate having to edit phrases, I'll add that to the settings page with the next release.

Thanks for the great mod though!
Going to use it soon for gaming community apps and maybe in the future for forum positions and hacking reports on servers if we can get different sets of questions. :up:
Because I'm pretty certain in some countries there are some privacy issues when an IP is included, the IP was one of those things that I debated on and was going to give the option to include it or not. I decided that I would include it and the first person to ask for it to be an option would change my mind. You win the prize!
Next release (probably sometime Monday), it will be an option in the settings.

I'm already working on the general flow for different questions for different positions. I'll put this on the wish list and see how it can be worked into the logic.
Before I get down to actually coding that major change, I'll probably ask for some more input here.
I have it in a private forum but I do not want it to be moderated. I want it to post the application after it is submitted. How do I turn off the moderation for this mod?
And also it does not post the application in the forum specified after submitting and moderating. And I do have it set to post when a new application is received.
The post being marked as moderated is a part of vBulletin itself. The member is posting in an area that they don't have permissions for and vBulletin is following it's built in moderation rules. So, at this time there is no way to override that.
But since you mention it, I can add a default member to post the applications to the settings page. You would just need to be sure that the member you use has usergroup permissions to post in the forum. I will add that to Monday's update.

Ok, thank you.

Nice! Thank you!
Yeah, we are using this mainly for apps to be in our gaming community and they are gonna be published in an open forum where everyone can see them so removing the IP option will be nice.

Alright, sounds nice! :up:
Another thing that would be nice is to make some of the questions optional.
I removed the warning message on some thinking this would do it but I just tried to fill an app out and it wont let me go on unless all questions are answered.

And without realising it you just gave me a way to do just what you want.
EDIT: Just noticed that you are subscribed by default to the thread it posts but Ive received no e-mails.
I think one of two things would cause this..
1) There aren't any replies to the thread, so no email would be sent by vB. (I don't use automatic subscriptions but I don't think an email is sent out to the thread creator when that same person creates a new thread. I'll check it)
2) If it's a "moderated post" and in a private forum you don't have access to, I don't think vB would send the email either.
It was posted in a private forum and there were several replies (private as in only the general public cant see it - members of the gaming community can).
I dont use moderation on anything and I didnt subscribe to it as I rarely ever use that feature.
I tested this mod in an open forum as well and used a user account with full admin access and it still does not post in the forum. Does the moderation rule pertain to public forums as well?
I double checked the forum ID number and that is correct.
I made sure the post thread is set to "yes".
The forum is public where everyone can see it.
The admin account has full privileges.
