I want to add a field to post.asp between the topic line and message box then have the entered info from the new box posted to the author collumn on forum.asp instead of the users name.
Can I just create the new box, name it and change the line that posts to the author collumn to the new boxes name? Or are there other things I need to do to accomplish this? What are they and where?
I need a Snitz Guru to guide me through what and where I need to make the additions and changes.
I searched the forum but didn't find anything related.
Even info on correctly adding a text box entry field to the Snitz forum would greatly help.(After I add the field to post.asp. What other things need to be done throughout the forum so it is correct).
Much of the forum is dependent on the t_author field, so you don't want user entered information going there. It is also a number that is joined to the members table, so all you could possibly enter would be a random number that would pull another members info.
What are you wanting to display on forum.asp instead of the author?
I would suggest adding a new field instead of renameing author. This has been discussed a few times, but the posts I've found aren't complete as far as information goes. You would have to make changes in post.asp and post_info.asp I should have some files around that do this and hopefully I marked them. If I can find them I'll post a link to them.
