Form Hack 4.1


Features:

Ever wanted an online form that a user can fill out, which when submitted gets:
  • Posted into a new thread in a forum of your choice
  • Create a new poll in the new thread with options of your choice
  • Posted as a reply in an existing thread of your choice
  • PMed to you or someone else
  • Emailed to an email address you specify
  • Choose to redirect to the post, thread or forum, or a custom thank you message
  • Choose to redirect to edit post
  • See a preview before they submit

Or any combination or all of the above?

Well, this is the hack for you!

You can use this for:
  • Moderator Applications
  • Quiz Submit Form which gets PMed to a moderator
  • Contact Form that goes to PM, email or thread
  • Guests to apply to be members
  • Report a Moderator form that goes as a PM to you
  • Guests can PM you for whatever reason
  • Order form to buy things
  • Donation form
  • News or Articles submissions that can go straight to a thread

Or anything you like - this hack is totally customizable via the AdminCP.

The beauty of this hack is that once you install this hack, to make a new form all you need to do is copy the main hook, rename it to whatever you want, edit the variables in the hook, and you have a totally new form!!! You do not need to touch the templates again, but can always create new ones and use different templates for different forms.

Format of the form:
  • One main input question
  • 3 Radio buttons Choice questions
  • 3 Normal text input questions
  • 1 Drop down menu
  • 3 Check boxes
  • 1 Long answer question
  • 1 VB message editor text box question
  • Upload attachments

This is customizable via the hook.

Also:
  • You can set the usergroups you want access to this form.
  • Depending on your forum permissions, if the new thread is in a public forum, members can reply to it. This hack allows a form to submit the new thread or post wherever you want it to go.
  • Force the user to answer all questions.

INSTALLATION
Easy - takes only a few minutes:
  • Import the XML into products. (admin cp -> Plug-in System -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product)
  • Edit the main plug-in - the instructions are all inside the hook itself, in the top half. Follow the instructions carefully!
  • To get to the form, go to: /newthread.php?do=form (change "form" to the name of your form if you have few)

Done!

Use this hack to make as many forms as you like!

Enjoy!

Updates:

Version 4.0: (09/15/2006)
  • Ported over for vb3.6
  • Send to multiple emails.
  • Send multiple PMs.
  • Parse emails for BBCode
  • And finally, ATTACHMENTS!

Version 4.1: (04/24/2008)
  • Fixed for vb 3.6.10
  • Small bug fixed.
  • List of the 2 quick edits are in the zip file so you don't have to start making a form from scratch.

MAKE SURE YOU CLICK INSTALL!
You will get an email when a new version is released.

Yes. In the plugin, it states

// To add more then one form, copy this whole text, and creat a new plug-in with the hook location 'newthread_start'.
// After, change the form name. You can't have 2 forms with the same name.

YvaN,

My buttons work. Here is the code for what I have:

Try replacing mine with yours to see if it works? Did you maybe change the <form> values?

What do you say by : "Did you maybe change the <form> values"

The top of that template should look like this:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)   
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Do you know if you have changed anything in that section? If something is wrong there, that would cause those buttons to work.

The <form> part is what tells those Submit/Reset buttons what to do. Without the <form> section, those buttons won't do anything.

Maybe I've the trick, try this:

In template:


Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)   
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

And then in the plugin script find this:


Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)   
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

and change to...


Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)   
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

I hope that it works for you

Question
Hi ive been using this hack for dome time and love it. Our gaming clan uses it for applications and its set to post to forum that our registered users can and cannot see. I want to try to get one application to post to more than one forum. I have searched this thread and cannot find any option for this. Could someone tell me what the variables should look like for this to happen or mabey point me to a thread that has already answered this question. Million thanks and great Mod.

I haven't tried this yet - anyone know if this can post to a forum that the user doesn't have access to? i.e. Reporting bad behavior goes into a non-public forum that only admins can see?

I'm sure I'm just not seeing things properly, but I've imported the xml file and can't find where to configure this product, or where it shows up in my forum for people to use.

??
