Warning: fetch_template() calls should be replaced by the vB_Template class. Template name: formoutput in [path]/includes/functions.php on line 3893

I use an old form and it send the message but it shows this error. And message had this codes in it.

<!-- BEGIN TEMPLATE: formoutput -->

<!-- END TEMPLATE: formoutput -->

First off, thanks for porting this to 4.0.

I created a new form and went with all of the default settings. It worked fine, posted to where I wanted it to go, sent me the thanks for posting note, and sent me to the forum I indicated in the setup.

However, when creating custom form output, the form still posts to the proper forum but I see the following errors when submitting:

At the top of the page: Warning: fetch_template() calls should be replaced by the vB_Template class. Template name: formoutput in [path]/includes/functions.php on line 3893

In the "vBulletin Message" section: Unable to add cookies, header already sent.
File: /home/scott2/public_html/forums/includes/class_core.php
Line: 4501

I do not get the thank you for posting message I created nor am I forwarded to the forum selected, but the form does post fine to the forum and looks as I want it to.

Thanks again.

Attaching a screenshot.

Same problem here.

Have you uploaded (allowing overwrite) upload/clientscript/easyforms.js into the /clientscript/ folder?

Thank you sir, working fine now. Much appreciated, marked as installed, and nominated! I used the other forms hack prior to this version, yours is far better.
