Mmmmmm, probably!
This actually needs a re-write, so when I get round to it I'll look at adding that option. Give this a bump in a week or so as I have a few other things on the go at the moment.

Will do! Thanks bro!

There is another project for you @<i>pebble</i>league , set a bump time , like you suggested above , that would alert the member in this case OJ to bump the thread at a specified time or maybe do it automaticly. Call it bump reminder or something maybe?

I like the sound of this!
Give me a bump about it in a week or so!

Speaking of bumps.... bump!

I'll get to it but got caught up in something else.
Have you tried the plugin yet? If not, can you try it and make sure it's what you're after and works. Making it for 6 different templates will take a lot of time just typing the inputs so want to make sure it's going to be what you need.

[OJ]

Yes, I already have it plugged in. It's what I'm looking for so I needed modified for my website....

I actually added a third template exactly like how the other 2 are, but it didn't work for some reason. So if you want to show me exactly how to do one, I can do the rest. I don't mind at all. I need about 10, so idk if you're willing to do all 10...

[<i>pebble</i>]

10! I'm going to look at the code and see what I can do. If it looks easy enough, I'll give you an editable version and tell you what you need to do. It's not the coding that takes the time, it's the plugin inputs and typing them out.

[OJ]

Ok, keep me updated bro!

[<i>pebble</i>]

Here you go OJ, an editable version! www.dropbox.com/s/32ay017uvdxz5ea/IODrequestform%20OJ.pbp

Put it on a test forum. If you go into the build section and then look at the user interface, you'll see the set up for two templates. You need to duplicate this for how ever many templates you want. ( Now you'll see why I mentioned about how much time it'll take. )
The variables all need copying exactly but change, for example, in the 2nd template , any _2 to _3 and for the 4th to _4 etc.

If you decide to take it on, we can then get to the coding part in the components section.

Just to be sure, before you start this, is each template going to be different? Or will some be the same?

[OJ]

Damn! I see what you mean @<i>pebble</i>league !

No matter bro. I think I have a good grasp on what to do.

And for the most part they will all be the same. I mean they won't all have the same amount of questions on the form itself, but the design and all that will be the same for sure.

[OJ]

Ok @<i>pebble</i>league. I finished all 10 templates. Surprisingly it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be!

Can you go and check them out? See if everything is in order?

If they are good to go, can we move to the coding section?

Also, is there a way to customize how the form will look once it's posted? I want it to look kinda like how we had it back in v4...?

[<i>pebble</i>]

I'll pop over for a look later today.

Moving on to the coding... More work for you!

if(boardid == PTF.which_boards_ || boardid == PTF.which_boards_2 || boardid == PTF.which_boards_3 This line needs extending to how many templates you have){

if(boardid == PTF.which_boards_){
var topmessage=PTF.template_info;
var numberinputs=PTF.form_inputs;
var agreecheckbox=PTF.add_agree_checkbox;
var checkboxtext=PTF.checkbox_text;
var postthread=PTF.run_on_post_thread;
var posthead=PTF.post_header;
var errormes=PTF.error_message;
} else if (boardid == pb.plugin.get('iodrequestform').settings.which_boards_2){
And in the code you'll see I've extended this bit a few times. The code 'ends' need changing to 3, 4 , 5 etc for each template.
