    Hi, my name is Mark, I am currently a gamer and part of a Realism Unit on the gaming mod Day of Defeat. We are currently upgrading our Recruitment objective and have a free form which sends Enlistment's to our unit's main e-mail. But i want to find a way where when someone fills out the form and submits it that it will submit at a topic in our Enlistment category. Like when they submit it all the information is made on a thread. I've seen other units and clans have that and was wondering if there is a way to do that for Forumotion. Please let me know.

    Sorry for not explaining my situation very well Darren.

    What i mean to say is i am looking for a way where when i have a Web Form made that when someone fills it out and submits it it would get posted on the forums as a post.


    Example:

    I want to join my unit which is the 97th ID. They have a website which has an application page where i will fill out all my information. I submit my app. and it appears on a post on the Enlistment thread of the 97th ID.

    thank you for clarifying it more Mbk127K, i now fully understand what ur asking.

    you can make a HTML website, however the capabilities of it i am unaware.
    You may be able to get a html code (or something similar) and you may be able to get it your web form that way, however thats the only way I am aware that you can do such a thing.

    Otherwise you would have to get a website and do a single page with the web form from there.


    I hope this is understandable.

    Shovel, do not moderate other members here, as that is reserved for staff only.
