hi - thanks for your post.

still an error:

Warnung: require_once([path]/includes/functions_wysiwygparser.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/forms.php (Zeile 368)

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'XXX/includes/functions_wysiwygparser.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:..') in XXX/forms.php on line 368

maybe the problem is, that "/includes/functions_wysiwygparser.php" doesn't exist.
use vb 4.1.X an other function with the ck-editor?

EDIT:

Found a solution:

require_once(DIR . '/includes/class_wysiwygparser.php');
$html_parser = new vB_WysiwygHtmlParser($vbulletin);
$q[$formbit[id]] = $html_parser->parse_wysiwyg_html_to_bbcode($vbulletin->GPC["message"], 0);

then the form is submit correct. but problems with formatting the text, or the bbcode - texts like:
"<br>&am p " and so on...


EDIT2

following:

$q[$formbit[id]] = $html_parser->parse_wysiwyg_html_to_bbcode($vbulletin->GPC["message"], $vbulletin->options['pt_allowhtml']);

now the submited texts seems OK!!!
with correct formating etc.

for next release it must be a query for the vb version, that this mod can work with older and newer versions (with ck oder without)

something like this:

http://svn.vbulletin.org/trac/changeset/533/branches


now testing again...

edit3:

my forms.php -> see attachments

That's probably not going to work for me.

...unless I make the others multiline text fields... hmmm.

Is there any way to allow editing the TYPE of item when you edit a question so I can convert from Editor fields to multi-line text fields without haveing to reconstruct the forms?

[bananalive]

v4.2.8
- another edit for ckeditor

@djbaxter edit editor question (not javascript popup) then you can swap editor for multiline text box

I don't understand. If I edit a question in a pre-existing form, I see no option to change the type of field anywhere.

[djbaxter]

There's another problem with v4.2.8. Now when I try to save any edit to the form, it redirects me to the FAQ and the changes aren't saved.

For me (first install) all is working OK.
MOD v4.2.8

OK. I understand now. I disable the popup editor in Settings.

Have you edited any of the templates? perhaps the form_edit template? If so revert them.

Thanks for the reply.

I'm new to Vbulletin so I didn't see that I had not marked this as installed, but I went ahead and did and gave you a 5 star rating.

Your posted method works perfectly for e-mailing the form to the email field that was setup. However, I was hoping that there was a way to set the REPLY TO field in an e-mail.

I have a form that submits to myself and a Cricket Wireless Dealer. Cricket Wireless users submit this form to have changes made on their account. I was hoping that we could hit reply to on our e-mail and have it populate with their e-mail address. My dealer sometimes forgets to copy their e-mail into that field. By default it says it comes from the e-mail address we've inputted in Vbulletin (webmaster@cricketuser.....com).

Thanks again!
