This looks really nice and easy to use. I've already spent way too much time getting the other product FormHack to finally work, but I'll be keeping an eye on this one.

Nice work!

The vbulletin admin panel needs to be done with check boxes not a scroll list. We have around 30 usergroups and this is a huge pain to scroll through this little box.

Getting this error when creating a form

Database error in vBulletin 3.7.4:

Invalid SQL:
UPDATE forms SET title = 'test', description = 'test', displayorder = '1', action = '2', forms.where = '', threadtitle = '', category = '', polloptions = '', pollquestion = '', poll = '0', publicpoll = '0', multiplepoll = '0', usergroups = '', submitmessage = 'test' WHERE fid = '3';

MySQL Error : Unknown column 'submitmessage' in 'field list'
Error Number : 1054

Had to manually do "ALTER TABLE forms ADD submitmessage text NOT NULL"

Not sure why it did not update with the upgrade.

Found possible error.


When i set the permissions in the "Easy Form Options" It still wont let the user groups view the form. The permission for the Form list seems to work correctly but to view the actual form doesnt.

So far only Administrators can view the form.

First check your usergroup permissions in Easy Form Options then check the usergroup permissions for the particular form.

Sweet that fixed the problem. But now i found 1 more.

1. When i choose "Field using vb editor" It shows up just fine, however for example:

q_1(vbeditor) answer1
q_2(vbeditor) answer2

outputs this:

q_1(vbeditor) answer2
q_2(vbeditor) answer2


How would i go about using the vbeditor twice?

You can only use the vbeditor once per page - this is limited by vBulletin not me. I don't think a way around it has been found.

I think this is going to come in handy for several of my sites.

I do have a question, tho...I'm trying to add a template conditional to the Forms link in the Navbar, but for some reason nothing I do is working...

It's most likely me because I'm so new at actually writing any code, but if you could let me know how to get template conditionals to work, I'd be very grateful.
