Alright.

Alright. So the plugin is updated in the library. The update fixes a few bugs.

Thanks!

[Shorty]

No problem.

Hey guys, a new version is available in the library. The new version adds a new feature. You can choose how the content is added to the post. The three options are append(will append the new content after what has already been typed in the post), prepend
(will prepend the new content before what has already been typed in the post), and overwrite(will overwrite the content of the post with the new content).

I have one of each option that I was just testing out, but the append and prepend seem to post as many times as there are drop down options. For example:
Prepend

Overwrite

Fixed and sent to the library.

I'm having some difficulty. I created a drop down with four drop down options. After creating a new thread or post I see the drop down menu with its title. However, when I click on it, all that displays in the drop down is the name of it, below. I see no options. Clicking on the drop down does not create text in Preview nor BBcode text boxes.

I'm on a Mac running 10.8.5. I've tried with Firefox, Safari and Chrome.

Change "Drop Down ID" to "Transactions" because that field is where you tell the code which drop down to place the option in. So it needs to be the ID you gave in the Drop Downs autform for ID.

Got it. Thank you.

Hey Shorty!

I love this plug-in and use it like crazy! I just ran into one minor thing. The codes I put into the drop downs have a lot of returns in them and spaces, which is needed otherwise it's just a mess. While it appears like I inserted it in the quick reply it turns into one large paragraph when inserting it into new threads. I have the setting on overwrite, btw.

Edit: It randomly fixed itself? Odd.

[Shorty]

It will do that if you are in the preview tab. The bbcode tab should work fine.

This is a marvellous Plugin - Thank You

I have one big request that I hope is simple to implement - when you select the Dropdown box, the Dropdown Title is an option which when selected blanks the entire post. Is there any way to remove this (either the option, or to stop it from blanking the post).
