Fantastic Hack, but I can't get attachments to appear in forms output to threads. Is there a way? Thank you!

Odd it works fine for me on vb 3.8

I'll look into it.

Have you changed any of the templates, if you have revert them.

It's not that easy atm, I'll make it easier in next version.

To Change Questions Colour

Open plugin: Easy Forms

Find and change this line with bbcode:

PHP Code:

            $formoutput .= "[b]" . $formbit['question'] . "[/b]\r\n"; 


Maybe change to

PHP Code:

            $formoutput .= "[color=red][b]" . $formbit['question'] . "[/b][/color]\r\n"; 


To change the Answer Colour
Open plugin: Easy Forms

Look for and change lines LIKE this with bbcode:

PHP Code:

$formoutput .= "[indent][i]" . ($q_{$formbit[id]} ? " " . $q_{$formbit[id]} . " " : "-") . "[/i]\r\n";

Pre-Release v2.1

- Fixed issue with resizing poll options on edit form
- Form list only shows in navbar/ quick links if user has permission to view form list
- Form list only contains forms user has permission to view (unless user can edit form)
- Create Form link only shows for users with permissions to create forms
- Fixed missing <tr> tabs around Create new form
- Usergroup permissions changed to allow permissions through secondary usergroups
- Change bbcode for questions and answers easily in plugin
- Change null value easily, needed to stop bbcode messing up (default '-' )

PHP Code:

$preqbbcode = "[INDENT][I]";
        $postqbbcode = "[/I][/INDENT]\r\n"; 


The \r\n is the syntax for a new line.

Ok cool, but there would be a problem you cant use HEX colours only the BB colours.

i need #888888 colour

any ideas.

EDIT: To much code to look for that line as there is a lot of code the same in the plugin, any chance you could add a option to change colour in the admin.

cheers

Put color tags inside the indent tag

PHP Code:

$preqbbcode = "[INDENT][color=#888888][I]";
$postqbbcode = "[/I][/color][/INDENT]\r\n";
