chronoforms form inside post

How to embed a ChronoForms form within a ChronoForums post.

Overview

The issue is that the ChronoForums system does not process Joomla plugin syntax in post content by default.
Enable plugin processing for posts, but restrict this feature to trusted user groups like moderators to maintain security.

Is it possible to put a chronoforms (v5) form inside a chronoforums post?
I tried using the plugin syntax to no avail.

thank you

The goal is to have forms or reports without leaving the forum envelope.
I create a post about an event and I want people to subscribe to it. And I want to list the participants.

Thinking about this again now, wouldn't it be dangerous to load the plugins from text entered by users ?

Yes, of course.
In my previous reply I forgot to mention that only moderators (selected groups) should have permission to use the chronoforms plugin in the forum. I suppose that a simple group check and a preg_replace should do the trick.

Thank you
