    I'm trying to create a listing of groups in the area. I'd like to have the form's imput automatically update the list on my website. So, several questions.
    1. How easy is it to put the info obtained in the forms into my website?
    2. Will it update with each new entry or will I need to do that?

    This page is an example of what I'm trying to do. http://www.home-school.com/groups/GA.html

    Thanks,
    Ann

  2. If you wanted to do something like this you would probably need to use posts and custom post fields. Maybe create a category for your listing of groups and then each post in that category would be a group.

    You could use Gravity Forms to create the posts, however how you display them on the front end is entirely up to your ability to work with WordPress themes to display posts how you want them.

    A theme template for this category could be created that displays the posts in that category as a list.

    How familiar with WordPress are you?

    Thanks for your answer. I'm not sure I understand though.

    I'm a fully qualified wp hack. Capable but incompetent. No coding or php knowledge. Just standard wp options utilzing headway theme. In over my head, probably.

    Would I be able to make the posts alpha by location? I need the groups sorted by city/location.
