    In my way from tdo mini forms to the Gigs Calender Plugin

    Is there a way to override the <form> tag , to sent the form to a other plugin?

    This is the tdo min forms tag:
    <form method="post" action="http://www.hoffnungshuette.de/wp-content/plugins/tdo-mini-forms/tdomf-form-post.php" id="tdomf_form1" name="tdomf_form1" class="tdomf_form">

    This one from Gigs Calender:
    <form id="new-gig" class="new-item" method="post" action="http://www.hoffnungshuette.de/wp-content/plugins/gigs-calendar/gigs.ajax.php">

    for me it look like I have to override the action variable??? but how?
    I think if I do so I lose the moderation from tdo mini forms .
    Is there any way to Handel the post first like tdo mini forms. And if a post get moderate to be public. It will be delivered to the gigs calender plugin.

    I hope you able to understand my English. Be curse I know my English is very poor. I think there must be a way to do this. Thanks a lot

    I'm not familiar with the "Gigs Calender" plugin, but I'd nearly be 99% positive that the Gigs Calender plugin won't use the same form fields.

    The best way to integrate TDOMF with another plugin, is if that plugin is powered by tags, custom fields and/or special categories. If the plugin uses its own data set distinct from posts/pages, then the complexitiy of integration is multiplied and requires extra code.

    How does the Gigs Calender plugin work? Does it generate posts for each gig in a special category or does it do something else?

    Yes it generates posts for each gig in a special category.
    and it's powered by tags and custom fields.

    I think the custom fields i can add with the Form Widgets
    But i don't understand what i can do with the tag's

    Maybe I have to write a Plugin that copy the published data from the TDOMF to the gig calender and just keep the TDOMF posts under a hidden category. so i have the moderation.
