Carnivals - Carnival Form Improvements
We've made some improvements to the Carnival Submit Form. Because the number of carnivals is getting rather large (50 and counting) the form now has a link you can use to get all the carnival information in tabular format. Just scroll to the bottom of the page and click it. Once you've found the carnival you want, click its name and you'll be taken back to the submit form with that carnival pre-selected.
If you are a carnival host you can now link to the submit form with your carnival already selected. This is accomplished by placing the carnival ID at the end of the URL behind a question mark. So, for example, the Carnival of the Cats has an ID of 1, so the URL http://www.conservativecat.com/Ferdy/Carnivals.htm?1 would be used to pre-select the Carnival of the Cats.
To find the ID of a carnival, select it in the list of carnivals on the form, and the ID will appear above the descriptive text, as shown below.
Carnival of the Cats Submission - ID #1
Submit a post containing a picture of your cat, a story about your cat, or something that bears a resemblance to a cat.
Feel free to play with the form to see all the new features.
Respectfully submitted,
Ferdinand T. Cat
