New Posting Features - [DBTech] DragonByte vBForms v2 (vB4)

Dragonbyte Forms is a mod that forces users to fill out a form before posting threads in select forums.

Uses
For instance, you can use it to create a "support ticket" system like the one we have on DragonByte-Tech.com, or simply gather common information.

A powerful alert system lets you receive emails for each new form filled out, and usergroup permissions control who can manage the forms in the threads themselves.

What does 'Marking As Installed' do ?

* It helps you to stay on top of updates - members who have installed modifications will be notified by us whenever new updates are available.

* For security issues - vbulletin.org will contact all members who have installed a modification whenever a security issue is brought to their attention.

* Marking a modification as installed also helps us know how many people are using our work, giving us extra incentive to provide more features and new modifications.

We appreciate the support!

Major Features
Multiple Form Options You can create an unlimited amount of form categories that allows you to ask any number of different questions on a per-category basis. You can also create separate statuses for forms, which lets you mark forms as "handled".

AJAX integration We used AJAX wherever we could to help reduce the page reloads

(Pro) Powerful Alert System A powerful alert system lets you decide who should receive alerts for new forms filled out for select forums only. These fine-grained alerts ensure nobody receives unnecessary emails.

Not within the mod itself, that would need to be added as a feature. If you post that @ our forum, we'll be able to take it into consideration for future versions

There is a bug in this version 2.1.0

When I submitted 3 category with enable / disable like this sort
1- Enabled
2- Disabled
3- Disabled

When I try to enable number 2 & 3 shows that edited successfully but unfortunately its stuck at disabled

I tried to delete 2 & 3 with Enabled in new Category creation but it shows disabled after submit

***Update ***

I tried a temporary fix by edit it from Database

And I repaired cache in DB Form option & its solved
