Using latest Firefox, also tested with IE 7.

Anyway, updated to Mod Version: 4.0.1 and it solves the problem, the edit question popup editable now in Firefox.

Question: Anyway we can replace the new thread link with a link to the form for specific forums? Would be nice to have so that we make sure users submit the form instead of making a post on mistake.

No luck here in IE7 after the upgrade, but I did test it with Firefox and there isn't a problem there.

Small suggestion. When editing and adding questions, can you put in a #tag to put us back down to the Edit or Add questions part of the editform page when saving? Very small suggestion but it can get tedious if you have a long application form.

How can I Re-direct/ force users to submit form when they click new thread?

1. Create plugin newthread_start
   
   PHP Code:

   if (in_array($forumid, array(1,2,3)))
{ 
      header( 'Location: http://www.your-site.com/forum/misc.php?do=form&fid=1' ) ; 
 } 

   Change 1,2,3 for appropriate forumids.

Try clearing your ie7 cache, it might be that your browser has cached the old javascript code and so it isn't loading the updated javascript file.

It should already do that. I've added #qs which the page should go to after: adding, question, editing question, deleting question, changing display order of questions.

Still no luck on ie7. This is only my work pc so no biggie. I'll just use firefox for this.

It doesn't appear to be working for me on ie7 or firefox. It always goes to the top of the page here.

Now the error gone but it doesn't send the answer, sends just the questions.

In custom form output we use $q[questionid], is it change with the new version?
