"flag this page"

  1. I'm looking at having a "flag this page" as a way of letting a user inform the admin that there's a problem with this page.

    I'm planning on having a checkbox to chose from a list of items on the page (this be static, doesn't need to be dynamic) and a textarea to specify with comments.

    What's the best approach of creating this functionality using GF?

  2. I don't see anything particularly troublesome with that type of form. What issues are you anticipating?

  3. Wasn't sure if there was a "best practice" for it. I'll give it a shot and see how it goes.

  4. Should be simple. I did something similar for a community site, but I can't find a page where the functionality is visible right now. It was just as you described: a drop down (that's what I used), check boxes or radio buttons and a text area for comments. I grabbed the logged in user name and display name, and automatically included the embedded page/post so I know what they're talking about. It was pretty straightforward.
