pmwww | Re: Predefined Posting template (18th Jan 11 at 3:20pm UTC) | | Nevermind I got it. The original Code from the Code Database is messing up. As I went to an older forum of mine, and tested the code out, and this doesn't show up:
I also tested the code directly without changing anything and it does the same above: http://dmtesting.vforums.co.uk/general/12/testing

I'll go take a look at the code that is in the thread.

I have updated the code.

pmvForum | Re: Predefined Posting template (5th May 11 at 5:35pm UTC) | | Ok, Im confused as to why this code wont work. I copied the code as it is from one forum, where the predefined posting form displays. When I paste it onto my forum: Boost, it doesnt display the form when creating a new topic.
Not sure why, as I have copied the code as it is from both here and Tru Visions where it displays correctly.
Edit: Link to board on my forum where it doesnt display: http://boost.vforums.co.uk/Dir | |

pmvForum | Re: Predefined Posting template (6th May 11 at 6:53am UTC) | | Hmm, seems to work fine for me in work too, just not at home.
Possibly another Firefox 4 error, but cant be too sure. Running Firefox 3 in work.
Ok, the cause of the problem seems to be when using the root admin account. It displays properly if I login in to my test member account.
Regarding the post, that basically makes the thread link take you to another board.
