Hi thenetgirl,

I think what you're asking for is to add the num of the user who created the record, which you're doing toward the bottom of your code but with one important thing to change:
//....preceding code snippet
createdByUserNum = 'num',
updatedByUserNum = 'num'")


should be

//....preceding code snippet
createdByUserNum = $CURRENT_USER['num'],
updatedByUserNum = $CURRENT_USER['num']")


The $CURRENT_USER global is where the current user information is stored - any user logged in via the website membership plugin has this array created, containing all their information.

Let me know if this helps,

Tom

I was able to get the priority to post properly but still no user so it doesnt appear on the list in the CMS in his account.

Finally found the right code



createdByUserNum = '".mysql_escape($CURRENT_USER['num'])."',
updatedByUserNum = '".mysql_escape($CURRENT_USER['num'])."'")

Hi thenetgirl,

In my code I forgot to break out of the string, hence the form disappearing altogether (the $CURRENT_USER['num'] needed to be bookended with ". and .") and, as you discovered, it's also best practice to escape any content being inserted into the database, just in case.

Glad it's all resolved!

Tom
