Using a form to create a Joomla! article

Surprisingly for a form application ChronoForms doesn't come with a big stock of forms. Over the years we have learnt that almost every user has a different set of needs and most of the common forms are easily created with the Form Wizard.

One that does come up quite frequently is the wish to take the information submitted in a form and use it to create a Joomla! article to be published on the site. For this, there is a form available.

Getting ready

This time we don't need anything special.

How to do it...

1. 1. Go to the ChronoEngine.com Downloads area and navigate to ChronoForms | ChronoForms Applications and download the submitcontent.cfbak file.

   Note

   Notice that the file comes with a warning: Pay Attention, misconfiguration of the form may put you at the risk of losing your content...! And there's also a request that you pay a small fee if you use the form on a production site. There's no charge if you use it only for testing and development.

2. 2. Restore...
