I have setup the form creator but how do I do it so when I post a new thread it uses the form?

---

Please help

I went to this page:
https://community.mybb.com/mods.php?action=view&pid=975

Which has the following as the third preview image:
https://community.mybb.com/uploads/mods/...844cbf.png

There I see a option called Thread Prefix. Then, I went to check the code over at Github and found that some options aren't displayed:
https://github.com/burnacid/MyBB-Form-Cr...#L202-L259

Finally, I kept checking the code and pondering the use of this plugin, which I never really got the chance to deeply check, and the only reason I find this plugin useful over xThreads is its ability to send PMs to users or groups.

I'm sure this ability to send PMs (which can easily be covered by a plugin for xThreads if it doesn't exists till now) alone doesn't covers for its malfunctions or poor coding.

I'd recommend to go with xThreads over this plugin from now on.

may be you can try using this simple plugin => Default message

Hi there!

Sorry for no reply but that addon only has one option which is enable or disable I cant set a custom message and anyway with the form addon it should like like this when creating a new thread https://fearlessrp.net/form.php?formid=2 so if I click new thread I can use that

Edit: I'm not a website coder so I cant change what you click redirects you to.

^ guests cannot view how your form appears.

anyway,
above referred simple plugin has related options for each forum separately
those options are available through forum settings [forum management section]

the plugin is expected to automatically fill up preset default message
& users can consider that as a draft & add their message accordingly ..

Is it possible to change the new thread button to redirect you to the form.php?

^ find code similar to below in forumdisplay_newthread template of your forum's active theme

<a href="newthread.php?fid={$fid}" class="button new_thread_button"><span>{$lang->post_thread}</span></a>

you can replace newthread.php?fid={$fid} with form.php

Hi Thanks for using my plugin. There is an option within the form settings that says

Override post button
Change the create new thread or post reply button to link to the form. Only useful when set to post a new thread or reply.
