|
|
How can I make new fields of data in the "new topic" form? I am trying to make a trading system using phpBB and I want the user to be able to specify their item and specify what kind of item they are looking for.
Thanks! |

sashimiBlade, welcome to phpBBHacks.com!
Well, it depends of the fields you want to add on posting form. What exactaly?
If you don't know or are searching for something new, take a look at the downloads area of phpBBHacks.com and see if there is any mod related to this, with the posting fields. _________________ nothing... |

OK, here is what I want to do. I want to create a trading system using phpBB and have the user, when posting a "New Topic", be able to enter a description of their item (main message body), as well as enter the details of their item (item type, model, condition, location, etc.). I am using phpBB because I think it seems like the best way to post an item and have people ask questions in a smooth and forum-like manner. I am unfamiliar with PHPBB but am proficient in PHP and SQL, and looking at the code for the BB just daunts me. What files should be modified for this to work? Right now all I want to do is add these few fields for users to enter data into.
Thanks,
Alex |

As you are using phpBB3 we need to know what style you are using and if it is not a default sytle, what default style it is based on thanks. _________________ ~HG~

There are two default style's with phpBB3 and we need to know if you are using Prosilver or Subsilver2 as the templating for both is very different and without that information, we cant even begin to guide you through what needs to done. _________________ ~HG~

| Sorry about that. How can I check what style I am using? I didn't install it, so I don't really know. |
