Now that we have Groupanizer working for the members, I'm trying to switch our public site over to it as well. I want to add a contact form and think that webforms is the way to do that. The webforms module is enabled and the site admin has permission to create and edit webforms, but it still doesn't seem to be working as I'd expect. When I create a new webform content, the edit page only prompts for the basic node stuff and creates a simple page like I'd get with Public Page. There are no options for the webform-specific options and no options to create and edit the fields in the webform.
Does anyone have an idea of what I missed? I suspect its a permission problem (it's always a permission problem!) but I don't see any other obvious settings.
I just enabled the Contact Module. Works like a top. "Enables the use of both personal and site-wide contact forms."
You can check out our site, the contact form is in the left hand menu

Hi Ian,
I checked out your web site and I like it. I have a couple of questions:
1) How did you prevent the member login prompt from appearing on the public page?
2) What are the detals to create the menu item "Members Only"
I'd like to change my public page.

Thanks Ian, that's just what I wanted. I'll need to figure out webforms eventually, but the contact module was the last missing piece to get my public site ready for prime time. I'm really looking forward to getting the public site live on Groupanizer and leaving my old hand-crafted site behind.

It's probably a permissions problem. Check out this thread: http://www.groupanizer.com/webform-error

Ok. I'm digging this up again.
Is there a more indepth tutorial of setting up the contact page? I have done what the manual pages says....but all I get is my old contact page. I see no way of adding the contact form to it.

1) How did you prevent the member login prompt from appearing on the public page?
admin >site building > Blocks
Choose your public theme and then delete Login from the Lett Sidebar
2) What are the detals to create the menu item "Members Only"
Some of this is theme dependant. I am using Garland... not necessarily recommending it, its oK but sometime over the next few monthe I may change it. It was OK to get started with.
admin > Site building > menus
Choose your public theme. In Garland if I want things across the very top I add it to the Primary links.
Probably best to do thing 2 before you do thing 1. Don;t want to eliminate it fromm one place until you have it in the other!

When you create the Members Only menu item, the destination should be "http://yoursite.com/user?destination=dashboard". If you do accidentally delete the login block before creating a way to otherwise log in (speaking from experience), you can always log back in by going to the yoursite.com/user address in your browser.
