# Forms that save to the database

 * I’d like to create a wordpress site which enables users to contribute content,
   let’s say jokes for example, which will then be moderated and if approved will
   be shown on the site. I also want ratings to be available for these jokes. The
   ratings feature can probably be handled by g star ratings but I’m still looking
   for a good solution for the main process of letting users contribute the jokes.
   I’m thinking it could be like a form that would save to the wp database so i 
   could then fetch these jokes and categorise them etc. Any advice on what plugins
   could be helpful for this? thanks

 * If you want the jokes in the form of a post:

   [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tdo-mini-forms](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tdo-mini-forms)
 * jokes not as a post

 * As I understand then saving the jokes in the form of a post would make them easier
   to rate, and display on the front end, right?

 * I’d say yes to that.
