ParticipantIs it possible to create a link with a page that just has the form on it?
Like without having the “Add a New Entry” at the top of my lists…
So that uses can go to a link on my page like:
domainname.com/register
and the form shows up there?
Currently it keeps showing up on my homepage.

Keymaster@ Steve
If you are using Form and Lnmk to allow users to maintain their own entry, the users must use the directory home page / submit link.
If you do not want to display the “Add a New Entry” link you can use the shortcodes for Link to dispay the links on any page you wish. You can also use the free Login extension which has options to display the links in the widget.
Hope that helps!

ParticipantSo my issue is that my form always shows up on the homepage with all the other content on the homepage.
I just want a basic page with just the form. How do I do this?

re: So my issue is that my form always shows up on the homepage with all the other content on the homepage.
Can you please share a link to the page that has the issue show I can see it? Perhaps you have the directory home page set to the same page as your site’s home page in the WordPress settings???
re: I just want a basic page with just the form. How do I do this?
Like I have stated, since you are going to use Link to allow users to add/edit their own entries, they must use the form that is rendered when one clicks the “Add Many Directory Entry” link. This link does not need to be output above the directory. You can output this link in just about any location you wish using the methods I outlined in my last reply.

ParticipantYou are correct. I believe I have fixed that.
How my page appears to be blank when I click “submit new entry”
Can I privately send you the link?

ParticipantI forgot to add the [connections] to my new page.
Thanks for the help Steven. I got it figured out!
