How do I create a custom dropdown that pulls the same options from a custom profile dropdown. For example field42 is an option in a members profile to select a game and I want the data from this same field42 to appear in a custom dropdown in this form?

[Budget101]

In Form > Form Name > Form Edit > Create Section > Enter Description >

When I enter BBcode in the short description (particularly ) , then click save and view the form, the bbcode is completely ignored and everything is in bold.

How do I fix that?

I've changed the layout of Section in v4.0.4, update and then see if you still have same problem.

I was wondering if you can clear the data_tables or something, not even sure if thats what the deal is but I don't really have that many answers yet it thinks i do ...LOL

what I really need is a way to not need so many forms. if i had one that could choose a state from the drop down question then when its selected actually post it to that states thread I wouldn't need 51 forms :> sigh

if i uninstall it then reinstall it will the q_1 be back at q_1 and not q_500 ?

I'm going to add an option in next version where you can specify name for field, like field1 then you would be able to use {q_field1} and that would not need changing if you copied forms.

Userids
Comma seperated list of userids who have submitted the form

this part of the script , what if 1000's of people submitted the script would it wrap or is there a way to take this part out or disable it so it doesn't show who submitted the form ?

just wondering

thanks a bunch :up:

@bananalive Any chance you could give me some tips on the form post I made on page 19? I love the mod and this would push it to full functionality. Gladly donate.

How would I go about changing the date format to the British DD/MM/YYYY?

Thanks
