  2. Yes. You can create a content template for the Post Body field and insert static text, HTML and field merge tags to output field values as part of the content of the post.

    - Edit your form
    - Edit the Post Body field
    - Enable the content template option
    - Configure your content template
    - Save your form

    Whatever you configure in your content template is exactly what will be used to create the content of the post that is then created.

    Here is some quick documentation on the Content Template functionality and which fields it can be found in:

    Hi Carl,

    Thanks I only have one more question - how do you make the picture show in the post? Also is there a way for them to click on the thumbnail and see the full size image.

    The site is: http://mydonationnetwork.com

    Thanks again.

  4. To add the picture, be sure it's being uploaded in your form already. Then, when you edit the content template for the body, you can insert the merge tag for the form field which holds the image. Once you select that field from the drop down, the options will change and you will be able to select the size of the image, and its alignment. Here is where you configure the content template and add form fields from the drop down: http://minus.com/mcbg88c#1

    Now, to insert a thumbnail and link that to a larger image is a little trickier but completely doable. You have to code the HTML yourself, and use two merge tags. You can see how to configure that here:

    If you need help with it, once it's online, please post a link to your form and we'll look at the code and see what needs to be changed. Thank you
