UBB.Developers Forums UBB.classic V6 MultiHack Mods [6.3.x] Application Forms v3.1.5

Heya Chrimera,

Im not sure what you mean about the windows splitting off. I did visit your board and took a peak at the application form mod.

While i do see a split window setup, its in your html code. A split window is created when you click 'join us'. Even in v3.1.1, the hack should all run within one window (doesn't need multiples).

Currently you have the 'join us' button which is coded as follows:
(target _blank tells the browser to pop open a new window)

changing this to: should remove the window split.

The big issue is... v3.1.1 does not support age checks (and they are enabled on your forum) nor email verification (and they are also enabled on your forums). Im suprised it transitions through the pages at all

I urge you to look back through the threads here and upgrade to v3.1.2.1. v3.1.2.1 handles the age checks and email notifications much nicer. In v3.1.2.1, there no major issues on the transitions that i'm aware of.

To simplify the upgrades from one version to the next (i know the appform mod is a huge hack), i've prepared Upgrade instructions which will bump the version up on each instruction set followed with as minimal work as possible. You will need to follow 2 of these upgrade instruction sets.

First, Upgrade from v3.1.1 to v3.1.2 Instructions are found here: Upgrade from 3.1.1 to 3.1.2 Instructions This upgrade will resolve many of the transition problems i see on your forums.

Second, Upgrade from v3.1.2 to v3.1.2.1 instructions are found here: Upgrade Patch 3.1.2 to 3.1.2.1

These upgrades will give you a much cleaner transition from one page to the next. This hack will be built up quite a bit over the next few weeks and if you want it to perform its best, hit the upgrades when they are released.

Im working on v3.1.3 which pretty much puts the completing touches on transitioning through pages cleanly (seems to work really well so far and looks very sleek). v3.1.3 also allows unregistered users to submit forms if you decide to allow it. Couple other features of v3.1.3 is wordletization of buttons and text and the ability to disable a form. V3.1.3 hopefully will put me closer to being able to work on code which allows the hack to have its own custom administrative functions.

BTW: I did look into the graying out of fields. While it is possible, it only works on IE4.0 browsers or higher atm. I do still plan on adding this functionality -- but its gonna be a few months.
