Custom Form Mod

[The Saviour]

After going to the Mod page and selecting the Manual installation instructions for my version of SMF, which is currently 1.1.5, it states this Mod isn't supported...and there are no manual instructions.

A little help, please?

Are you going to be adding the manual install instructions for 1.1.5, soon?

@The Saviour,
The manual install instructions do work. You just have to make sure that you have the radio button next to the mod package for the correct version checked. By default the SMF 2 Beta version is checked, so that isn't compatilible with your version. You can view the manual install instructions for your version by clicking on the option box next to the "CustomFormMod_v1.1_SMF1.1.5.tar.gz" file and then clicking the submit button for your version.

Thank you...my bad.

Installed and working perfectly.  Can't wait for the changes you intend to make.

Is there a way to redirect "New topic" button in a certain board, to the form created for that board?

Nope, not at the moment. But a fair few people have asked for that feature, so I will have a look at adding it to the next version.

Thanks for your answer

Just another question... topics created by this form doesn't count as a post? I've a member with topics created using the forms, and his post count is zero

If it is suppose to be like that, could I change any bit of code to make forms count as posts?

Thanks a lot,
Regards from Portugal

@ac99,
I will have a look into that, I might add an option to the admin form setting page, to turn the counting of posts from a form, on or off.

Thanks

Instead of creating a new topic for each submitted form, can we make one for a certain topic id (like a reply with a form)

[Nathaniel]

@Enders,
That feature is on the list of things to add to the next version, which I am currently working on.

I know you're obviously very busy working on the next version, do you have an estimated time when it will be released?

@LHVWB

Could you take a look at a topic I have in the 2.0 category, please?  My forum has crashed and I'm getting database errors.  Part of it looks to be referring to the Custom Forms area.  I'm not sure if it is a cause or effect or totally unrelated.  But, any direction would be helpful to remedy the situation.  Plus, if it does have something to do with the Custom Forms, it may help someone else down the road.

@axodious,
It keeps on getting delayed, at the moment I have not ETA on its release.

@tk2012,
I don't think that the errors you are getting are related to this mod, I would try to have a talk to your host, because they seem to be host-related MySQL issues.

[tk2012]

Thanks I've emailed them to find out what is happening.

I just hope this doesn't mean I have to start all over again building my forum!!

I just wanted to thank you for this great mod!  And also thanks to tlknowles for writing that little tutorial which helped me figure out what I was doing wrong.  One quick question, is there a way to get the form title to include the person's name?  Like Application {name}

[Nathaniel]

@Smoothbrain,
That is a feature which I am working on for the next version of the mod.

[Smoothbrain]

Thanks you rule!

I've created a form and it works great, except when I have 'Required' fields.

It just redirects back to the form and puts the required fields in red although I completed them originally.

@bbates7995,
This is a known bug, I'm working on updating this mod, I just haven't found the time lately.
