Is there a way to hide the guestbook so that only entries can be made but not viewed by all?

Thanks,
Russ

You mean you want it so people can post but not view the posts? Like say a feedback script?

Well...at the top, right-hand corner of the guestbook...it says

"back to the guestbook" and

"administration"

When you click on "back to the guestbook," you can see everyone who signed it and what they wrote. What if you don't want people to be able to do that...or maybe password that option?

Thanks for the reply,

Why would you not want others to read what people have to say about your site?

remove the link from the templates. It will always be index.php though.

I asked the same question in my head - like "when is a guestbook not really a guestbook?"

Simple,
I am running a site for a rock band. In a nutshell, people tend to type things that could get other people in a load of trouble.

Yeah but thats half of the fun of running a web site. Just make it clear that you are not responsible for anything posted in the guestbook.
