HI David, thanks for the quick reply. We use the developer addition for all of our radio station sites.
Aside from normal forms (contact submissions and such) we also use it for contest entry.
I'll try to decsribe this to the best of my ability.
1) Say we are doing a "win a house contest". We have a typical form to collect Name, address, all contact info etc.
2) all these entries get collected as any other form does. Nothing out of the ordinary here.
3) For us as admins, when looking in the back end, under entries for "win a house contest", I'd be looking to have a button/field to "pick a qualifier from the overall pool of entries.
The overall list of entries stays untouched. Say Bob Jones, was a listed entry. He may get randomly picked and added to qualifiers, but still is in the list of entries.
Lastly, have an option to Pick a Winner, from the narrowed down "qualifiers" pool.
Obviously the Draw a Qualifier would be a random pull from Entries, and Pick a Winner would be a random pull from Qualifiers.
Does this make sense, I may not be conveying it properly.
Thanks again.
