Import attached file and add to form hook: before submit

PHP Code:
$closed true
Will that remove or delete previous posts using this hack?

Anyway, if you don't end your form question with a ? it will automatically add a : to the end of your sentence, even if you don't want it. Not a big deal, but a little annoying to assume what I want.

Anyway, excellent work!
That was intention.

Find
PHP Code:
$formbit['question'] = $formbit['question'] . ":"
Replace
PHP Code:
/*$formbit['question'] = $formbit['question'] . ":";*/

I've got a problem where the recipient of hte email sent is getting blank emails, the PM works fine, database stores the record and if I set the email to me I see it but the person I need to can't. I'm not sure but I think it might be because the form output starts each line with an * and this seems to make the content invisible, is tere anyway to alter the character used?

its really useful to have that character before and after the question as I'm using them as delimiters to allow data import into excel, previous to this update I had to start each question with my delimiter and end each question with my delimiter.

Odd, the script only runs on misc.php pages

Try disabling Easy Forms and see if you still get the problem.

bold bbcode tags get replaced with asterisks by vbulletin's plain bbcode parser. so if you remove all the [b] bbcode then you won't get any asterisks interfering
