DF Guild Application w/ Recruitment Block

by **Razac** » Sat Apr 28, 2007 2:52 am

I havnt looked at robo's code but it may be that you require the newest Dragonfly.

in which case you MUST be using the ForumsProV2 as V1 will not function properly for the new DF.

I am going to be adding Robo's version to my site as wewll as adding in a more complete application form to reflect TBC.

Robo, is the link on the previous pages the most up to date version you have??

i dont know, but i think so. He said he will work on a better version.

I also think, that ForumPro V2 was the key, to solve this issue. But why doesnt the eMail-Part work?

And i found another Issue:
Posts done with the App are always appearing as "non-readed". I used "mark all Forums/Posts read" but they are still displayed as new.

If i get a functional and tbc-ready Version, i will translate the Form into german.

working on the Application form right now. the Form itself was done on my previuos version but I never got around to adding the check if this was processed yet or not. so im adding all that function back into the form.

once I get that werking I will start looking at other problems.. and additions I want added.

Currently my version also adds the application to the database and allows the officers to look at them.

So I want to add a feature in the admin area to allow the user to select what group(s) can view these, with out hard coding the Group ID into the code.

I have changed the installer to add a 2nd Table that will store all the application data.

I am now adding DB info so we can get rid of the appconfig file.

all information will be stored int he database and be editable on the recruitment settings page.

im hoping to get this done by end of week for distribution..

The past few weeks I have had some RL stuff to take care of (haven't even logged into WoW). I have done barely anything and probably wont have time for at least a few more weeks.. I do have another project I am working on so all of my free time has been used to work on that.

Update

I have finished the Admin side of things and will now start fixing up the post to forum area.

I will also be adding a changelog so user will know what has been done.

currently it sits at:

-TBC ready form
-Saves applications to Database aswell (can toggle this on and off)
-Posts application to forumsPro (can toggle this aswell)
-removed hard coded variables in the appconfig (now pulls from the database. All values can be added via admin section)
- single selectable user group to be able to change settings (on top of site Admin)
- removed the Alt user from form etc.. (didnt see a need for this) these things can be discussed later when ya jointhe guild.
- Selectable poster to forums from admin. (was previusly coded to use the userinfo() however it will fail if the applicant is not a registered user to the site.

any more ideas I will be happy to look at adding them.

-Forced Security image if the person applying does not currently have an account (or enabled by default). This is to prevent bot spamming (with the added bonus of weeding out retards from applying.)

Developer Notes on how to do this

The Contacts module uses a security image as well and can be viewed for reference.

Okie well I think I am finally finished. Although after working on it long enuf Im sure I missed something.

View the readme for install instructions although it is pretty straight forward. Also lists the change Log in this version

If someone could please test the Mail function that would be great. I am having issues wiht my linux machine getting the sendmail up and running.

Please let me know what you think

RecruitmentDF v2.0

Anex if you want to put this in the downloads section that would be good.

Dee you can translate to German now.
