Simple Forms [Paid] [Deleted]

[Breixo]

I will see what we can do in the future, but at the moment it's only possible solution.

Thanks, I'll wait for that
BTW, a "Duplicate funtion" will also be nice.

What would the duplicate function be duplicating?

Does this plugin allow you to change and or use the SMTP default sending email address? Basically I am having an issue with Amazon SES and the default Xenforo form not allowing me to change the sending address to something else i.e. noreply@mydomain.com . I need to have it send with the default SMTP sending address.

Hello,

The plugin actually uses the default settings you have set for mailing in your XenForo options. There is no option to change that for this addon specifically.

That is perfect then, because the normal xenforo contact us form uses whatever name and email address that the user puts in as the sender. Thank you for the super quick response!

Sorry, I may have misspoken. Here are the options displayed to you when you use the "Email" destination:

That is fine as long as I can specify the email sender manually to be from my domain i.e. noreply@mydomain.com instead of the user who fills out the form that is all I need, which looks like I can do that if I am looking at it correctly.

So basically so there is no confusion...

User fills out a form I made in Simple Forms

Username: John Doe
Email: jdoe@usersdomain.com
Message: I need help!

-----> form gets emailed to me, but comes from noreply@mydomain.com so Amazon SES does not block it because it is a valid domain email address.

Yes you could set 1 email destination to go to you with the sender as noreply@mydomain.com and then you can set up another email destination to go to the user if you wanted. You can set up as many destinations as you like

Ok perfect, I might just go ahead and purchase this now. Not only because it looks to fix my problem, but because of the super quick support! Thank you again LP-John

1. Can this plug-in create threads in specific forum(s) based on the answer that was submitted on the form?
2. Can I let moderators manage the forms? eg different forms manage by different moderator?

Hello Deddy,

The form fields have no direct relationship with where forms go. So unfortunately you won't be able to do that.

As far as managing forms, that can only be done by administrators with the necessary permissions.

 

[Deddy]

But the completed data through the forms can be setup to create threads in xenforo?

 

[John L.]

Correct. The data collected can be sent to a new thread and various other locations. I believe what you're looking for is a way to dictate where that data goes depending on a fields value. That, currently, is not possible.

Just a form. If I want to copy a form now I have to export&import it. Just a "duplicate form" function would be nice. Not a big issue, but it would be nice though

Would it be possible to add some functionality where some fields don't appear until you answer another question.

It keeps a lot of optional stuff from cluttering stuff.

The technical term that survey writers would use is "filter questions" or some such.

 

[Mouth]

While there are a few other plugins that do this, we don't believe there are any that do it the way we want. It's a Groups/Clubs addon. Essentially create your own groups, people join them and you have your own discussion forum.

Interesting. Sounds exactly like Social Groups add-on??

We will look into adding a "Duplicate Form" process that is easier and more intuitive.

This is called "conditional questions" and it is on our list for 2.1. It is a HUGE challenge and will require a lot of time to work on.

This is correct. We want to make something that is closer to the quality that we expect. That is no rip on the work done by other addon makers, but we feel something different is needed.

Nice !

How far away is 2.1?
