Custom Post Template

[Shorty]

you do need to delete the current plugin first then install the new one.

Thanks, I will let you know how it goes.

I downloaded the new version but it still says "undefined" in each field after I fill out the boxes and post it. I don't know why it is doing that. It's no problem, I will just let applicants know that they need to delete the word "undefined" when they modify their application.



Thanks!

Is this happening in all browsers or just one. That would be helpful. Also, can you give me a link to the board with this happening. And allow me to make an account, so I can test this myself. On my board, I can't reproduce this issue.

I am only using IE, I have not tested it on any other browsers.

If you go under Before We Begin/Be Admitted/Pending applications... fill in a few of the blanks and then post it, you will see that the word "Undefined" appears under every field.

I just tested it in Chrome and IE, and I am able to replicate it. But only on your forum. Can you try disabling all your other plugins, and seeing if it still does it?

Alright. Nevermind. I just now figured out the problem. You are doing 2 line break between each thing in the settings, there shouldn't be be a blank line in between each thing. You only need 1 line break.

Thank you so much, shortyverrett! That fixed it. I don't even know why I did that to begin with. Thanks for looking into this and for all your help. And thank you for creating this Plugin, it is an assett for me and the site.

No problem, I'm glad you got it fixed.

Hey there, I have the plugin up and running and working but what we have just found out is. If they leave the custom fields blank, they can avoid inputting the information and submit a blank post.

Is there a way to force them to input the fields, so that blank posts aren't made?

the custom template is in both submission boards. Linking first and Linking back.

Why would someone make a post. And not post anything? It seems kind of pointless. And also, what if there are blanks that don't exactly need an answer because it may not apply(I know I have cases for how I use this plugin). And adding in the option for it to do that would involve re-coding, something I'm not entirely for right now. It would also make the input for the code more complicated than it is. That would be at least if you wanted each input to be set to be required or not. Which I think would be the only logical way to go about it.

Shorty My forum is an advertising directory and the inputs I put in are so we know which boards to put their ads in. So the fields need an answer and I guess they just hit submit without reading?

Also is there a way to allow guests access to the visual button still, while using this plugin? They have reported that the template is annoying because they don't know if their pretty ads are working or not :/

haha, love this! really do! im playing with it, but this is definitely less of a hassle than copying and pasting a template and having it screw up!

I may have missed this, but is it possible to have an array for "links" as in, if the user has a link to include in the post they can paste it in and the array formats it so that the link opens in a new window when the post is created. Also, is there an array for spoilers?

No, and no. Sorry but that's just something I'm not going to add.
