Hi friendly coders :-).

I would like to have some kind of simple post possibility that I can post very quick treads and posts without viewing all the vbulletin gfx and skin. Some kind of form like:

New:
Name tread:-------------
Tread content box:----------
----------------
--------------
-
-
drop down menu with the categories or forums you have.

I can code the form by myself, but I need to know how to connect everything...

Thanks!

view html code of the new thread page from your forum & check for the next things:
<form> tags of the main fields posted, specifically for the action=""
(will prolly be action="newthread.php")
check if any other <input type="hidden" name="xxxx" value="yyyy"> inside the form, as this will send others vars needed while submitting.
and finally check for the thread title & description textbox names, so you'll need to create yours with same name).

then when you have all info, just make sure when you make the form, set it to same action, same method (get/post), same hidden fields & same input fields names - so when you'll do that the code will think it came from the vbulletin itself.

also, would maybe suggest you to lookup for something "unofficial" called "pubposter" (if u ever heard of it, if not then drop idea) - cause this does the exactly same thing you are asking for (with addition of few extra "fxp" fields), so it would be quicker just to edit that to fit your needs i guess.

Hello.

Can "action=" also reference an external web page? I have a form I did that isn't working. vBulletin returned "Invalid Action Specified" when clicking the referenced button. I have action=http://webpage.html in the form.

Thanks.
