BA,

I would appreciate your help...

When I upgraded to 4.1.3 - my pluggins disappeared (the ones that I did to change the standard reply text to text of my choice).

The other pluggin was to redirect the user to my form which would then be submitted a post in a specified thread.

I have redone the "renaming of the reply tab text" pluggin and that works. BUT, the one that redirects the user to my form (before it submits as a post) is not working.

I am now using vBSEO 3.6.0 too, and I have also tried this with the vBSEO off, but still no joy.

Can you have a look at the code that I am using and possibly tell me where I have gone wrong please?

I have the following:

Product:  Easy Forms

Hook Location:  newreply_form_start
 
Title:  Easy Forms Reply Button

Execution Order: 5

Plugin PHP Code:  
if (in_array($threadinfo[threadid], array(ThreadID1))) 
{  
header('Location: http://www.myforumaddress.com/misc.php?do=form&fid=1') ;  
}
if (in_array($threadinfo[threadid], array(ThreadID2))) 
{  
header('Location: http://www.myforumaddress.com/misc.php?do=form&fid=2') ;  
}

Plugin is Active:  Yes

Many Thanks,
Welshy.


PS: All the permissions appear to be set correctly.

BananaLive, I installed this and haven't tested the editor, but the rest of it appears to be working well. Thanks!

I do have a question though. Is there a way to allow attachments when routing to a post, instead of just to a thread? And is there a way to include the attachments in PM and email routing?

Thanks again. I'll be busy tonight adding forms to my forum!

I don't think the CKeditor is working for anyone in this mod, those who say it is working are probably just talking about the overall mod

Actually, I just had this installed today and had them apply the patch in post #1372. I can add the editor and have it show up on my form. I'm sorry, I haven't done a full test yet, and might not get to it until this evening. But it does show up after I add it...

HTH, More testing later tonight...

The ckeditor seems to work for some users but not others, I've not yet found source of error.

[dai-kun]

Loading a page with a form I get this on my error report

PHP Code:

[19:49:56.311] n.wrap_x_tags is null @ http://site.com/forum/clientscript/ckeditor/ckeditor.js?t=A7HG4HT&v=414:136 


The editor doesn't show up, I only see the smilies.
I using v4.2.7

Hi there - hmmm. This doesn't still seem to work still.

I tried a new test form, linked to a forum and it doesn't seem to launch either.

But then I played around with what plug ins I have for newthread_formstart (think this is what I should be using for this rather than newthreadstart?)

I can launch the test form from the test forum if I have no other plugins using newthread_formstart but I have 4 (3 I need plus the test 1) as I have three different forms be launched from three different array sets of forums.
