application form

[Flex]

Hey guys,

I run a games site and would like to know how do I go about creating a form page which people can fill in with their details when applying to join a clan for one of the games.

I'm after things such as name, age, experience etc.

I know I can add a page using IM, but I dont have any experience creating php/html forms.

Can you guys guide me or tell me if there's a mod perhaps which will add different fields to created this form?

Thanks in advance

Hey Flex, I have actually got a form created to just that that you are looking for. The only thing Ihavent figured out yet is the sendmail part to get the submit button to work. I used the BlankPage Mod to accomplish this......If you would like a look see at my code, just ask.. I will let ya have it. It will give you the basics of the form and where to get started to make your own...If I can help, just holler back at me... Have a nice day..

Hi and thanks for offering help.

I was just wondering, rather than using "blankpage mod", Can't you just add another portal page through page management in IM?

Why, yes, you sure can. But NOT if you want to use php inside of the block. It seems as though inside of blocks, all we are allowed is html and BBcode. I needed to use php for the task at hand so I used blank page mod as recommended by HelterSkelter.. Worked out real nice. I then Editted the tpl files and inserted the default border in powermetal theme to my new pages.. Works a treat.. But in the end, the choice is yours....The form I have, I have it in html as well.. I can get it to you one way or the other and you can then modify it to your likings if ya want........Have a nice day/night...

I think, I'll give the blankpage mod a go and see how we go, I'll ask you if I encounter any problems if that's alright?

Thanks

What I have on my site sometimes gets a bit confusing to some users of mine but for general public,they usethe register link provided default. I thenhave a registation Form, such as he is suggestion to join my Virtual Airline. I would simply use user groups,BUT thats not this forums topic...lol Maybe thats what he has going on as well.

The thing is you can have additional fields and even have a seperate profile panel

That would be sweet for sure.. <img> I may have to check into this...Hey Adrian, I stated earlier, to maybe use Groups to separate my two differnet communities.. I see you can set auot join and all that, how would one go about making it to where say for example some signed up on my site as MWE_545 It would kick them into that group per their Username anyone with the MWE_ prefix) instead of post or subscription payments...Would probably involve serious sql work ehh? Thus eliminating the need for another FORM alltogether.

Hey Flex, how ya coming along on that form?
