Create an article with form data

0100101 01 Aug, 2017
Hello, I need to have an article that display the data I collect via a form and
I need to have a different article for each different input.

Is it possible? I haven't found anything on the documentation.

Hi 0100101,

CFv5 has an action that will let you create an article from the form input.

As far as I can see there is no equivalent in CFv6 yet - you would need to use DB Save actions, or Custom Code actions to update the #__content table directly or to call the Joomla classes to build an article.

Hi,

A Joomla article action is in development, you can send me a message using the contact page to get an early patch file.

Best regards,

Actually i think I use this for a while in chrono 6. You mean, you have a form on your website and after sending it, you have an article?
