Hello bananalive,

I've already asked, so if you answered and I missed it I apologize. I was wondering, would it be possible when someone fills out a form and submits it to have the program place that person into a different user group?

Love your mod,

I'd like to use main forms page as general place of feedback.

Forms are grouped by categories. It there now a proper way to define categories order? I've found ordering only for forms, but not categories.

Hi, thanks for this great mod !!
I'm sorry for my noob level, but, where i can find the Form Hook: Form Start: for limit access to users who have at least 10 posts?
thanks in advance

I'm reluctant to post this code, all I can say is be very very careful.

Form Hook: Before Submit

PHP Code:

if ($complete) 
{
$userinfo = $vbulletin->userinfo;
$user['usergroupid'] = 4;
if (empty($user['usergroupid']))
{
$user['usergroupid'] = 2; // sanity check
}

$getusergroupid = iif($userinfo['displaygroupid'] != $userinfo['usergroupid'], $userinfo['displaygroupid'], $user['usergroupid']);

$user_usergroup =& $vbulletin->usergroupcache["$user[usergroupid]"];
$display_usergroup =& $vbulletin->usergroupcache["$getusergroupid"];

// init user data manager
$userdata =& datamanager_init('User', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_STANDARD);
$userdata->set_existing($userinfo);
$userdata->set('usergroupid', $user['usergroupid']);
$userdata->set_usertitle(
$user['customtitle'] ? $user['usertitle'] : '',
false,
$display_usergroup,
($user_usergroup['genericpermissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_genericpermissions['canusecustomtitle']) ? true : false,
($user_usergroup['genericpermissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_genericpermissions['cancontrolpanel']) ? true : false
);

require_once(DIR . '/includes/functions_ranks.php');
if ($user['userid'] == $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'])
{
$vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] = $user['usergroupid'];
$vbulletin->userinfo['displaygroupid'] = $user['usergroupid'];
}

$userdata->save();

}

One more problem with Date field. Got email with value, but it looks like this:

1[crap]13[crap]1976

"& #92 ;" - HTML code. It was instead of \

PS. If that's a bug, but not my mistake, please wait a couple of days, until i make complete buglist

Have you tried just putting '\' in the box. It seems to work for me.

Tryed this template:

----------
Пользователь: $thisuser[username]
URL: http://forum.dev.rcdesign.ru/member.php?u=$thisuser[userid]
email: $thisuser[email]

$qn[5]: $qo[5]
$qn[6]: $qo[6]
$qn[7]: $qo[7]
$qn[8]: $qo[8] (Месяц.День.Год) \\\\\
----------

1. Preview (HTML) is ok
2. In email (text) last \\\\\ are ok, but date separator is in HTML format, not correct. In my email program i see "& # 92;"

PS. By the way, it's better to use date format string from VB options (not from language one). That will solve problem for european format (day first, then months, then year)

is anyone else's forms being moderated when posted as a thread to forum? id really like to have it where it does not moderate apps. members are starting to copy and paste info from posted app and make an additional thread so it is not moderated at that time.

any fix to form?
