killarbee Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Can this be done ? Since i have a buy and sell forum on my board(s) this would be very handy to get organized clean posts. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antony Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I have an unreleased component (0 edits) that does this very nicely. You can configure a form from the AdminCP and with a little modification of the skin the "New Topic" button could be made to link to the form as opposed to the post screen. You could even remove posting permissions from the forum itself so that users could only use the form. If there is an interest I'd release it as a component. It does need a little touching up before it is release quality however. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what will happen if i install your mod and i upgrade the board afterwards ?In general you are describing excactly what i'm searching for and i would love to give it a try :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably finish it up later tonight and perhaps put up a demo tommorow. I may decide to charge a small fee for it, or release it free. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killarbee Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 Btw can the fields be set as required or optional and is there also an attachment option ? :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn't an attatchment option though I plan on adding one in a future version. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that the form automaticly adds the [ img] tags is that an option ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 I like this suggestion, but if antony made a component of it this will work just as well :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
