Dear Forum,

Ok I'll try and make this as concise as possible given my limited knowledge of module development.

----------------------------------------------------

-What I would like:

1) A very simple module that allows a user to upload a word file or pdf file and that reaches the admin email (i.e. my email).

2) That this module would be displayed unter the 'create content' section in the user panel.

-What I have already:

1) I have the upload module installed so uploading is not a problem.

2) I have the form module installed so I can create a form without problem.

-What I cannot do

1) I cannot get a form to be displayed in the 'create content' section of the user panel.

2) I have little knowledge of coding so making my own module is not an option at the moment.

--------------------------------------------------

Does anyone know if such a module already exists? If not would anyone be kind enough to make a module that could handle the above?

Thanks so much for your help,

F.Q.

Either my request was just plain silly or most people are simply too busy...please let me know.

Thanks.

Not a silly request at all, just a lot of traffic on the forums.

Which version of Drupal are you running?

And when you say form module do you mean the forms module from CivicSpace?

Hey thanks for the reply, I appreciate it. I figured the traffic is getting more and more dense these days as drupal expands its community.

I'm running Drupal 4.6.2 and the forms module is the one from Civicspace I believe.

Option #1
* Dedicate one of the existing modules (e.g. story) to this function
* Set it so that by default, all nodes go into the moderation queue
* Allow attachments for that node, and allow anonymous users to make uploads
* Review items in the submission queue, approve as necessary

Option #2
* Use survey module (which actually makes forms) to create a form which includes "file" as one of the required form fields
* Under Administer --> Menu, add a new menu item underneath the "Create content" area that points to the path to that survey node

And option #2 is likely what you want, but I just wanted to hilight the ability to use the moderation queue.
