    Is it possible for me to post a new topic via a link?

    For example, this topic im creating now, the link in my browser shows https://help.forumotion.com/post?f=46&mode=newtopic

    Would it be possible for me to tack on the Title and post contents in the link as well? I am trying to program some scripts to do this automatically for me and my staff.

    Hello,

    Yes, it is possible to create the topic using the link, if you put that in to your address bar and hit enter it would bring you to the create a topic page. As for the title, I would imagine you would have to enter that information into the fields on the page, when you hit send the title will then appear in the link to the topic. Like your link here on the support forum: https://help.forumotion.com/t142345-how-to-post-a-thread-topic-msg-via-a-direct-link .

    Something like this.....

    https://help.forumotion.com/post?f=46&mode=newtopic&subject=Need%20Help&message=Your%20msg%20here

    I know i can use the link i posted previous to start the process as a shortcut or a bookmark. But what i want to do is create a topic with a subject and message contents all in the link that will automatically create the topic with all that already in it.

    I know its possible on other forum softwares. I know phpbb has a php funtion to do this. Since forumotion uses a modified version of phpbb, im hoping they have something similar.

    I am still confused about what you are asking about.

    When your topic has been solved, ensure you mark the topic solved.

    Well in that case, not sure if it is possible. If it needs to be done using php, then probably not, since you don't have access to the server. This seems way beyond my small knowledge of code. Way over my head.


    I know we try not to say anything is impossible, but this is probably close to it. To know for sure, I will refer you to my friends @Ange Tuteur and/or @JScript . They should know more about how possible this is. Wink

    @Paxination
    It is possible through ajax (), but you need to set some details or get the value of array "auth[]"...

    Example of "To reply a topic":
    Code:

    $.post("/post", {
        t: TOPIC_ID,
        //lt: lt,
        mode: 'reply',
        message: user_Msg,
        attach_sig: signature,
        notify: "0",
        post: send_txt
    });

    JS
