Question

How do you create forms without the edit window part ? i.e. the topic should just show the form template on it.

This question was already posted some time ago, and the answer was related to EDIT in TWikiScripts

"action Optional. Use the editaction template instead of the standard edit. If action=text, then hide the form. If action=form hide the normal text area and only edit the form"

However, that explanation was not clear enough for me. I'm new at this, and have no experience in programming so if someone could really put it as clear as possible I would really appreciate it.

If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

You need to add a action=form to the edit script. You can try it out, I added a "edit my form only" link to your JoseDavila homepage. Here is the raw text:

   * [[%SCRIPTURL{edit}%/%WEB%/%TOPIC%?t=%SERVERTIME{$epoch}%;action=form][edit my form only]]

However, another question arrised... is it possible to have only the form since you click "Create Topic"?

You need to create a custom view template. See TWikiTemplates.
