Urgent: UK born child apply from abroad MN1?

Hi,
I was on T1 Entr (200k) route and recently received my ILR. My daughter was born in the UK. We left the country when she was 6months old and since then she has been staying in my home country (Pakistan) with her mother. She is 2 years old now.
My wife's visa have already expired for over a year now and my daughter never had a UK visa as she travelled on Pakistan passport. Now i want to apply for citizenship for my daughter while she's in Pakistan.
Can we do that using online application? or does it need to be via post?
As when i was filling her application, it says that i need to book an appointment but when i goto that link, it doesnt have pakistan in the list.
Should i still apply online and book appointment thru Gerrys' Pakistan?

Please help.

If you live in the UK use form MN1 and upload the required documents.
You will need British referees for her!
You may use foreign referees but then you should expect very long waiting time.

Hi,
I applied using MN1 but there is no option to upload the documents online.. instead it says to post the documents to their address. i had the same understanding that i would be able to upload the documents instead.

I think applications from abroad (not sure if it's from any country or just some) require to post original documents.
