WordPress Plugin Used for Submitting a Site

Discussion in 'WordPress' started by kennyk3, May 1, 2007.

    I'm developing WordPress blogs that are going to be used for webmasters and bloggers to submit their sites to be listed on the blog, somewhat like a directory.

    I need a plugin that will enable webmasters to submit information to me, such as

    site name
    site url
    tags
    description

    I've tried using a regular contact form, but would like something better.

    Any suggestions?

    So you are looking for a Directory Submitter? Is that it?
    Or are you writing one?
    Why don't you just get yourself listed in the already developed Auto Submitters, and promote the submitter?

    Are you looking for a plugin that will allow you to post other blog's posts on your site? If you're looking to create a SPLOG (spam-blog) and are asking for help, I'd go and do it somewhere else. People generally don't like other blogs posting their content.

    It sounds like they just want a basic form generator where it can be completely customized (I'd assume for something like this, accepting text and images for a screenshot or something would be ideal). If that's the case, I'd also be interested in knowing if there's an effective solution for WP. :)

    Hey everyone...

    I had no intention of creating a SPLOG, but thanks for accusing me thus.

    I've found what I needed, but thanks to those of you who genuinely tried to help.

    I realize that it came off like I was accusing you. For that, I'm sorry. I didn't fully understand what you were asking. Again, my apologies.

    I also thought of the Splog and when I read the post, I found he only needs a form. I think he tried editing some Contact forms and had bad luck.

    Can you share the wordpress form plugin with me please.

    No problem all... I found a really good plugin though. You can find it here:

    http://www.dagondesign.com/articles/secure-form-mailer-plugin-for-wordpress/

    You can add all types of fields of whatever you want people to submit. I'm starting up some resource blogs for people to submit their sites and blogs to. They are going to have a screen shot of each site, a description and the ability for users to rate the site.

    Each site will have a post dedicated to it and will have technorati tags on a fully optimized wordpress theme. I'm pretty excited about it.

    Anyways, I'll be posting them in here when I get finished with them. Again, don't worry about the offense... I understand how this thread could've been misleading
