    Any of u guys guys tell me how after a user has filled in a form and clicked the sumbit button I can make the full contents of the form be sent directly into a Forum catagory in another part of the site rather than the form being emailed to myself or other members and having to be copy/pasted into the forum.

    I really am dumb when it comes to doing coding so any help at all would be much appreciated wink

    Doing that would require a decent skill level on your part in terms of programming, since it would involve actually modifying some of the forum code.

    There are ways you can try to do it, but they all involve getting into the code to see how it works, all the forums are different so there's no one answer.

    Theoretically though you could submit the form to the same page that the standard forum posting page submits to, duplicate all the fields, give them the data they require, especially the user id/ session id if your forum use that.

    If it's not that easy, you'd have to hack the forum software, which if you're not reasonably comfortable with programming is a very bad idea.
