Display a user's allowed categories

me megana 18 Jul, 2012
I want to display a list of the categories that a user is allowed to post to. It would be the same list that displays when the user is posting a new article from the front end of the site, but I can't figure out how to do it within ChronoForms. (My form is NOT for submitting articles, btw.)

Any tips?

Hi megana,

The simplest way is to use a DB Multi Record Loader to get the information from the jos_categories table and then to use the Dynamic values tab of a Drop-down element to load it.

The two images below are from the drop-down uses to select Categories on the FAQ page here.

I'll see if I can figure that out...thanks Bob!
