I need to create a poll/form with a few questions. The issue is that the possible answers are too varied to be able to predict them and put them as options (eg: "favourite fruit"), so I need it to be an open field option (as in the user can fill in his own answer). Then I need that input to be published on my blogger page/post.
eg:
Favourite color:
Blue
Favourite fruit:
Apple
Is there anyway to do that? I dont know which way to start looking, if in the direction of polls, questionnaires or forms.
Any piece of advice would be much appreciated.
Thank you
Sorry, Blogger doesn't provide any option to directly allow users to publish answers from polls into blog post.
You may use free online form generator websites ( Google Docs Forms , emailmeform and other form generating tools) to get the poll result in your email.
And manually add the data to your blog post.

I'm looking to add the Comments Plugin, but wish to keep the comments simple. I'd like to have just the user-photo and comment visible. Not the date of comment, reply, like, etc.
Please advise if this is possible and how one can restrict this.
Thanks very much...
Andy
This isn't possible any more. Previously, there were ways to override comment box CSS, but these were removed with version 2 of the plugin. So, you're stuck with what Facebook provides.
It's possible to post and retrieve comments using the Graph API, which would allow you to style them yourself - but it would require a fair amount of technical work.
I need to create a from in lift with username and phone number.
can someone give a full example how to create a simple form in lift that can be submitted? or a reference to a good one. all examples I have seen are not full or has too many options for me, and I couldn't manage to compile them.
Thanks,
Ohad.
You can find an excellent, simple example in the introductory course given by David Pollak in London here. The snippet for the simple form (instead of a phone number as you comment it has an age) is here. The html associated is this one, just comment the Lift Screen section and uncomment the simple form.
Please also note that Lift has a very active and willing to help community, so you can also ask these questions in the Lift mail list.
I have created a signup form for secure zone in Business Catalyst. I want to give user access to that form in order to update the fields. I have created the page and its working only problem is there is no way to pre-populate custom fields in the form. I talked to their support and research a lot but all in vain. This is very basic thing BC missing. Is there a hack for it or some alternatives?
Just adding for anyone finding this that you can also populate fields that have been created and extended in the crm if they're stored against the customer record.
{module_customerfield,crmextformID,FieldID}
eg
{module_customerfield,7470,82256}
More info in the forums.
Good News Now Business Catalyst supports this feature for more information read:

I have had this same issue and hopefully there will be someway they can fix this in the future. What I did for the time being is I used other tags that I was not using. IE module_workcity was not and won't be used by me so I then put that in a field that I needed the custom tag for. Here is a screen shot of what I am referring to. - http://screencast.com/t/b3pvuOcTi one thing to note here the screen name is different than username for this site.
Note: When the user signs up I have the person filling out a field for the "workcity" and just change the labeling.
Not sure if this is an option for you, and it can take some work but might help.
Hope this helps. - Another note BC related question you will get quicker answers on the forums there - http://businesscatalyst.com/support/forums
can you tell me, how does the Google Ad sense works?
please explain me in brief..
There's quite a bit of information available from Google on the subject.
You want to know how to "use" it? or its algorithms? For the first one, they have a page for that, for the later one, I don't think you will even be able to figure it out:)
You place a javascript code in your site, and whenever someone visits your site, Google puts an ad in place. If the user clicks the add, you get money for it.
I assume your question is orientated around Google's contextual targeting.
In brief: Google sends a bot to read each page of your website. It looks at all the terms on the page and discards common words and instead tries to understand themes. Google also looks at adgroups of AdWords advertisers and looks to build an understanding of the themes of the keywords. Another algorithm pairs the two together so that relevant ads appear on a webpage.
I'm writing a YouTube Reply/Comment type wall on my website. This allows users to either post a new comment to the wall, or reply to any existing comment on the wall.
Is it recommended to create a separate form for each reply comment box? Or is it better to just create 1 form on the page that contains all of the input/submit elements, and then just use code to figure out which part of the form the user is submitting?
This question really isn't about this particular application, but just general coding best practices. Thanks!
ps - I will be using jQuery/Ajax
The best thing to do is to use separate forms. Unless you're using ASP.net, in which case you're already inside one giant form.
