Instructions
[hr].[/hr]

• Import the product file through your admincp.
• Go into your vboptions section and you will find 3 sections. I will briefly outline them below:

Elricstorm's World of Warcraft Configuration Settings

• Houses all of the generic settings for your form, including name, summary options, redirect options, and many more features.

Elricstorm's World of Warcraft Form Settings

• Houses all of the settings for your form, including faction, level access, and toggle on/off settings for sections and all questions.

Elricstorm's World of Warcraft Form Style Settings

• Houses one font, and 4 color header sets that you can color code.

Once finished, remember to write down whatever name you set in the configuration setting for your "What is the default URL for your form?". The default is "wow_form". In order to access your form you need to set a URL link to:

http://yourdomain.com/yourforums/new...hp?do=wow_form

.. with the ending only changing if you decide to change this configuration setting in vboptions.

All of the vboptions have full title/descriptions so understanding what they do and how to work them should be a piece of cake, even for the most novice of users. If, however, you still have questions or concerns, please direct them here. Please remember that I only provide support for those that click "INSTALL".

By clicking INSTALL you not only receive support but anytime I make a newer version or provide feature updates, you receive them via mail.

Changes
[hr].[/hr]

Version 1.0.1 Fixes

• Fixed the question 3 and question 4 answers as they were pointing to incorrect variables.

Version 1.0.1 Changes

• Completely vbphrased all English and gaming terms in the addon. You can now adjust phrases and change the wording for yourself. This was especially important for European communities that might want to change the languages.
• Go into admincp->languages and phrases-> and perform a search against the product using the "w" character as the search term. You will find all of the phrases that are editable here. The terms are "wow_form_(etc)".

Version 1.0.2 Changes & Fixes

• Fixed vboptions for groups being checked even when toggled off. Now if you toggle groups ON, it only works if you actually add group numbers, and if you toggle it off, it does not check for groups.
• Fixed answer template for newattunement keys.
• Fixed linking for what you enjoy most to being linked with the timezone enable.
• Fixed/Added vbphrasing for HEROIC, RAID, etc. keyphrases on answer template.
• Addon is now completely phrased or optioned.

Version 1.0.3 Fixes

• Fixed the list problem with the answer template for BC Instances
• Fixed the answer template variables for answers 27 and 28.

I haven't tried to upload a separate .xml file, but you can easily open the application up to show all races so that it would fit both Alliance and Horde.

In wow_form Find:

        <if condition="$wow_form_faction==0"> 
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4a" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4a == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4a</option>
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4b" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4b == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4b</option>
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4c" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4c == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4c</option>
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4d" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4d == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4d</option>
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4e" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4e == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4e</option>
	</if> 				 
        <if condition="$wow_form_faction==1"> 
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4f" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4f == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4f</option>
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4g" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4g == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4g</option>
        <option value="$dropdownchoice4h" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4h == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4h</option>
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4i" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4i == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4i</option>	
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4j" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4j == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4j</option>
	</if>

Replace with:

        <option value="$dropdownchoice4a" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4a == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4a</option>
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4b" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4b == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4b</option>
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4c" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4c == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4c</option>
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4d" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4d == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4d</option>
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4e" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4e == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4e</option>
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4f" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4f == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4f</option>
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4g" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4g == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4g</option>
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4h" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4h == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4h</option>
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4i" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4i == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4i</option>	
	<option value="$dropdownchoice4j" <if condition="$dropdownchoice4j == $dropdownanswer4">selected="selected"</if>>$dropdownchoice4j</option>

Since the classes are across the board now with TBC, unless you want to have different questions per faction it's a pretty easy fix.

I have noticed I am unable to remove the "What times do you play the most or are most active in the game? " Any idea why? Also, as far as the title of the application, I noticed it displays as Recruitment Application. Is it possible somehow to add $answer1 into the title so when posted it adds the character name to the thread title?

[Mother_Dee]

Vrokar -

If you edit the plugin so that the the the post title reads:

$posttitle = "$formtitle - $answer1, $dropdownanswer2 $dropdownanswer4 $dropdownanswer1";

It will come out with character name, level race class. You can change it around as you see fit, this is how I have it on my forums.

So, for example, my new threads would look like this: Balaa - 70 Troll Priest

Have fun playing with the variable.

[vrokar]

That works great. I was hoping you could do it with the easy settings. Guess not, had to search the code through the plugin manager. Thanks for the help man. Much appreciated.

And you're welcome. I just happened to have to dig myself last week as the Officers came up with the request and I had to come up with a solution. Guess it was your lucky week!

To get this working with 3.7 I had to edit the wow_form. I did this by going to my admincp. Then Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> Next to my default style I expanded the drop down menu and selected Edit Templates - > Go - > I scrolled down to wow_form and double clicked. Searched for:

<input type="hidden" name="posthash" value="$posthash" />

added before:

<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="$bbuserinfo[securitytoken]" />

I also had to turn off the human verification manager to get it to work. That is under vbulletin options in the admincp.

thx

just a question: i saw that the new threads are 'moderated', so how can i disable this feature and how can i make the new forms as normal threads?

TIA

edit: another question: (check the pic) there are 20 options, i need only 8 with different prefix (i don't want -KEY-), so i need to delete some options how i can do that?

[KURTZ]

anyone?

[Mother_Dee]

Kurtz -

Do you have new posts from that usergroup to said forum set as moderated? Check all the usergroups that post new apps and are coming up moderated, and make sure the forum permissions are set right.

What exactly are you looking to do with the Attunement section (mine has been off for eons, and now with most keys and attunements being nuked in 2.4 it becomes even more useless)... could you elaborate so we know where to start?

[atomhead]

Broken in latest version of vb, can I get a fix??

Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing or mismatched.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error.

edit: used fix above and it's working fine (didn't change anything with human verification though)
