 | Getting the hang of this now (it's better than the content manager that comes with E107 - in my opinion). My problem is that I'd like to allow members to access a category so they can submit information, i.e. an item, but I can't see any way to achieve this without giving them access to the backend - or have I missed something?

  | No you haven't missed anything, it's not possible - it is "simple" after all  cheers bugrain | |

| | Ta, thought as much. So, would it be possible to write a form with the same fields that are in the simplecontent item, which would submit it's data to the same simplecontent db table and thus be available through simplecontent. I've been trying to find out where the "item" form sends it's data to but it's eluding me - I've got helper project, helper developer, js helpers, yourplugin and yourfirstplugin installed but can't seem to get my poor old brain round things (I'm 66, not a programmer, but can follow things logically - as long as I can find the "things). So, possible? Ross | |

| | Probably start with the admin page for items and consider copying and making it a user page. Basically it uses a form that is defined by and XML file in the plugin folder that helper users to generate the HTML and handle the form submission. cheers bugrain | |
