Is there a way, or some sort of mod out there that will automatically move all posts from one forum to another? As in anytime someone posts something, it will automatically get moved to another forum.

What im trying to do is create a submission form of a sort, and am having terrible luck with it. As what I want is when someone submits their information, I dont want others to see it. Except for those that I specify.  Having a post geting automatically redirected is an alternative route to what im trying to do.


---------------------------------------------

Another thing id like to do is add more fields to post.php instead of just the subject and body. Anyone know of any simple fixes to doing so?

Can't you just put a link somewhere, that everyone can see, that goes to this page: post.php?fid=
And after fid= you just put the id of your application forum. Normally it should allow posting, so it should work...

I tried that, except it gives an undesired result by saying "Bad request. The link you followed is incorrect or outdated."

When I go to edit the forum, the "Read forum" and "Post topics" are both highlighted in pink. This is under the condition that only "Post topics" is checked.

Why on earth would you want somebody to be able to post topics and then not see the replies to them. That defeats the whole purpose of the forum.

It wouldn't be to all the forums. What im trying to do is have someone be able to send in an application to join a group. I want the group to be able to see who apps, but I dont want the people who app to be able to see what other people have posted, keeping everyone's app private.

When I go edit forum access, it gives the options of "Read Forum"  "Post Replies" and "Post Topics". Is there a way to have the user only be able to "Post Topics"?  When I try it, it doesn't work because "Read Forum" would need to be checked.

If that way isn't possible, would there be another way for a user to be able to post in a forum without having access to it? Something like a contact/submission form.

is there a way to have that same contact form except instead of sending it by email, send it in a post on the forums?

Id like to set up a hidden forum that contains the information sent by this form, so only a group of people can view these

works great! thank you

ALRIGHT!!! WOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!

I feel so happy now, smile



Although I have one last question. How would I set it so only members from certain groups see the link?

This is what I did, however it doesn't seem to work.

if($pun_user['group_id 1'])

Here is an example on how its used

<?php

if($pun_user['is_guest'])
{
echo '<a href="http://www.google.com"><img src="http://www.google.com/intl/en/images/logo.gif"></a>';
}

if($pun_user['group_id 1'])
{
echo '<a href="http://www.google.com"><img src="http://www.google.com/intl/en/images/logo.gif"></a>';
}

?>

Something like this:
main.tpl
<links>

Instead of using <links>, I used <glink1>. Should this still work? I believe I tried it but yet I had no results. However I wanna be sure that I fully understand what you were saying smile

Though IMO it might be easier just to put whatever the links are in a PHP file in include/user, then use <pun_include=file.php> in main.tpl (no messing with header.php)

How would the punbb determine if the user is a guest, member, or a member from a certain group?

Im slowly learning php so excuse me if I seem a bit 'new'.

Would I be doing something like

if($pun_user['is_guest'])
{
<a href="http://www.google.com"><img src="link"></a>
}
else
{
}

Im using the main.tpl file to show a logo/links at the top of the website. How would I have certain links only be displayed for people who are logged into the forums? How about people of certain groups?
