2. Do I use the hook feature to force the use of a particular form for the forum rather than say the standard thread post or reply ( I have a form for each)

3. This is probably ambitous but I would like to do more with emailing the form as well as posting to the thread. I would like to have it as a pdf with its own format - the idea here is listing a property for sale in the forum, and generating certain info in to a flyer that could be put in the window of the property but the format of the flyer wouldn't be the same as how it showuld be viewed in the thread.
1. If you only have a few sub-forums it would be easier for you to copy the form for each sub-forum.

2. You do not use the Form Hooks for this, instead use vBulletin hooks
Re-Directing the New Thread:
Create plugin newthread_start

PHP Code:
if (in_array($forumid, array(1,2,3)))

header'Location: [url]http://www.your-site.com/forum/misc.php?do=form&fid=1[/url]' ) ; 

Change 1,2,3 for appropriate forumids.
Re-Directing the Reply:
Create plugin newreply_form_complete
PHP Code:
  if (in_array($threadinfo[threadid], array(1,2,3)))

header'Location: http://www.your-site.com/forum/misc.php?do=form&fid=1' ) ; 

Change 1,2,3 for appropriate threadids.

3. this is too advanced for Easy Forms

I believe you could achieve this using this modification https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=237057

You should only give the following permissions to administrative/ trusted users:
  • Usergroups Allowed to Edit Form Results
  • Usergroups Allowed to Delete Form Results
Thanks. Those permission settings were not set. Hope this helps.

Hi,
i found this nice Mod, but i have to know if i can realize something.
In Version 3.7 i used a Mod called ADVPolls, but there is no Version for vb4.

It was possible that a User can weight the answers in a Poll.
I have a sports Forum and it should be possible for Users to type the table how it would be after the season.

Club A 5
Club B 4
Club C 3
Club D 1
Club E 6
Club F 2

The result after the answers from many users should be shown like that
Club D 1,3 (average of answers)
Club F 1,75 (average of answers)
Club C 3,3 (average of answers)
Club B 4,7 (average of answers)
Club A 5,2 (average of answers)
Club E 5,6 (average of answers)

Is something like that possible with this mod? If yes what have i to chosse to get this work?

Thanks for every answer!
greetings Kai

Thank you so much for this great mod.

I do need some help. When the form is filled out I have a thread created. When this is done the form's name is posted in the middle in big black font. How can I change the color? I use a dark theme and you can hardly see it.

Thanks in advance!!!

"Form Output Top BB code:"

Change the formatting as needed.

I do have a question of my own, however. I can't figure out how to use the copy form feature... I click the button and nothing happens?

I need to set up a lending library on my site for members to check out books and videos. They need to be able to select from a list (check boxes?) or fill in titles and submit their name, address etc. This should then generate an email to our librarian. Would this be a good mod for doing that? Something else better?
