Yea.. as I previously mentioned...I did that and got no intended effects.  But thank you for the copy and paste to the exact thread i was referring to =)

[Hairy]

Sorry, didn't see that part =D

I had the same problem as you and following that post helped to fix the problem for me.

I think you might have just copied the code wrong?

To make it easier, just copy and paste (I made the spacing a bit better then the original answer, still 99% the same):

Awesome, thanks so much Hairy!

[Eleven0]

how do i get this work with custom action?

[Anthea]

I was wondering how to create a poll in the post with the application

I was wondering about doing this too. It would be nice to automatically have a poll posted with the application, should you need to have a group of people vote on this.

Any ideas on how this could be done?

Code Select Expand

// CONFIGURATION SECTION

//send the application by email?
$enable_email=true;

// email address of reqruitment staf member
$email_address='alexanderjmackowiak@yahoo.com';

$board_id=10.0;

//the id of the this article
$this_article_id = '8';

//article to be redirected when form is submitted
$thank_you_article_id = '7';

This needs to be whatever you name you Custom Action and Discription

I don't understand how that could help, if anything it stops it from working wouldn't it?

[Craven]

The question above was "How do I use this in a Custom Action?" which is a SMF Mod that allows you to do article like pages without have Tinyportals installed.  So I was explaining the changes that needed to be made to get it to work outside of Tinyportals.

[Hairy]

Ah, my apologies I wasn't aware of that. 

I think they would have to chage the following parts of the code as well:

Code Select Expand

//else { // Display the form

echo '
<form action="index.php?page='  . $this_article_id  . '" method="post">

and

Code Select Expand

// Redirect to thank you page
header('Location: http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] .'/thesite/index.php?page=' . $thank_you_article_id);

But I don't know how the Custom action works, if you do then that would be great if you can post further instructions.

Cheers :up:
