User created articles using form?

Hey,

So I am using the Chronoforms V3 component from your site and I have successfully created the form layout I want to use. The next bit I am having trouble with.

I would like only registered users to click on a menu link in joomla which will take them to the form I created. After they hit submit, how would I make this then create a article showing the form questions and answers they gave? So submitted info would appear in the backend under joomla articles (author/user id).

Thanks.

Hi nrider_4 ,

There is a submit_content form that you can get from the Downloads area here. Get that - use the Restore Form icon in the Forms Manager to load it into your site then Copy and Configure as necessary. There are several threads here on configuration.

Hi
That form is very useful - thanks. However, I would like to construct the article from a number of form fields rather than just one with the form labels as headings. What would I need to do to compile various form fields and submit to the fulltext field in jos_content table?
Sorry if a basic question. Thanks

Hi jonathangreen,

You can manipulate the form results in the OnSubmit Code boxes to aggregate them into the form you want. By the time the DB Connection runs the article text needs to be in the introtext and/or fulltext variables.
