    Ok. Disregard my last message. I figured it out.
    After creating my custom post type I used a plugin titled “CONTENT WIDGET” that allows you display the content of any post type. You can select the number of posts to display, randomize if you like,etc.

    Life has been busy but I have finally gotten around to the recommendations you guys posted. So I have created a new CUSTOM POST TYPE. This is very similar to CONTENT TYPE on Drupal. So simple enough for me to understand. I’m tacking on a second question to the original. I hope that’s ok.. The two tie together.

    I’ve created 9 “Custom Post” entries (School 1 info, School 2 Info, School 3 info, etc) and now would like to display those custom post entries ONE AT A TIME in a widget randomly. So as the visitor goes from one web page to the next there would be a widget on each page that would randomly pick one of the CUSTOM POST entries and display it. We’re trying to highlight different schools.

    So although the original question was about creating a full page from form entries (Custom Post) I would also like to know how to display ONE randomly chosen custom post entry in a widget that sits at the bottom of each page. I hope that makes sense. I apologize if I should have opened a second help topic but I felt this question ties directly into my original.

    Thank you again for all of the support. I am really enjoying the process of learning WordPress and the support this community has provide so far is great.

    Thanks again.

    Sorry for the late response. Thank you everyone for jumping in and giving me some guidance. Like I said ‘m moving over from Drupal so it’s taking bit of getting use to. I’m going to give this a shot. It may be a few days before I get to it, but than yo again for the help!
