TOPIC: How do I use it?

How do I use it? 5 Months ago Karma: 0  
Dear All,

Yes, I am a newbie to Joomla [blush].

I tried to find a basic description of how to use the ContentSubmit plugin - and I failed.
I simply can't find any trace of the plugin in the system - except the install succesful message after installing and the presence of the plugin in the component list.

I am using Joomla 1.5.2.

Could you point me to a document explaining the usage of the component? Or explain it here? The only hint I found was:

"In the Joomla! 1.5 Core submission form, you enable all your publishers to publish to all your sections/categories. With CONTENT SUBMIT, you dictate which sections/categories your users can publish to."

Thank you,

Istvan Szakats

Hello!

To use it, all you have to do is create a Menu Item for it in your Menu Manager. It's that simple!

Thanks!

This component only allow to publish articles from a specified "section" or "category".

This would be awesome, if we could select the section "and" the category, where we want to create the article. (Just like MyContent does).

There is a way to do this with the Content Submit component?

can this be used on it's own or does it require JUGA to be installed?

Hello!

If you use the "bycategory" layout option in CONTENT SUBMIT, you are choosing both the Section *and* the Category into which the article will be submitted since every one of your categories is within a section.

CONTENT SUBMIT does *not* require JUGA to work.

Thanks!

Thank you Admin, for your response.

Let me explain better my point about the Content Submit Component for J1.5.

In my case, I want to create a option (in the User Menu) to submit articles from the frontend.

Like MyContent component does, I would want to be able to select A SECTION (from the extended list of section in my site), and later, select A CATEGORY from the selected SECTION.

The only way I've founded to use this component at the moment, is by create a User Menu Option FOR EACH SECTION.

I've configured the component in diferent ways, but I can't to do what I want.

Is there a way to configure this component, and use "only one User Menu option" to submit an article to a specific "selected" SECTION and especific "selected" CATEGORY???

Thank you and regards.
