I was told to

"create a custom module for your site, and write the right hook to modify a form. You have to write a hook_form_alter() function, grab drigg's form, and modify it before it gets sent to the user."

However, I am quite lost in how to do this. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance!

The support in here in the Module Development forum is basically non-existant. I will attempt to offer what little assistance I can give...

You basically are talking about altering a form before it's sent to a user and then getting back the info from the altered form. This read:

http://drupal.org/node/58689

Talks about using hook_form_alter() but like a lot of the Drupal documentation doesn't seem to offer any start to finish examples of HOW to use it. So I continued to dig and came across this:

http://drupal.org/node/227416

Which is a bug report but shows someones example of attempting to use it. That might give you an idea of what to do perhaps to get started. Best of luck to you!
