Form to submit a new link
Closed this issue · 2 comments
Contacting via reddit is a bit cumbersome for many, and it would be easier if there was a small form available to submit a new link. Example of a request form:
- Category
- Display Name
- Description
- Reason to add
- Contact
The idea is good and I want to do this as well. Currently, there is a huge limitation because the site is hosted via github pages which means you can't run php code and save to a database or use an email composer. The form could be made in JS but how to get that data pushed to admin? Maybe there is a way I'm not aware of.
The only workaround I can come up with right now would be to host the form on another web server and a link to it from the main site. Would that be ok? It would be more sensitive to downtime and not as easy to transfer in case nanolinks was abandoned.
Edit: Last response here sounds promising though, I will invetigate:

Submission form done. I ended up using https://usebasin.com.
