I have gone through the process of adding xinha to the back-end with the extnesion and I have it so my pages are editable from the CP. However…
I would like to have the scenario that when people login to the blog, they get a members area, specific to them they can edit themselves.
1. My editorial types are not code orientated at all, and need to be able to add a new entry, pick a category (I went with category types pages) and post to the weblog. I would like them to be able to use the xinha wysiwyg to do this, and cant figure out how to add this to my forms.
2. They need to be able to edit the entries they posted only with the same WYSIWYG, but not other people’s
3. and finally I need to have an admin edit everyones stuff.
So my question is/are:
How do I make a form in my pages that brings in the information I have in my entries? I was trying something along the lines of http://www.mydomain.com/blog/46, then www.mydomain.com/blog/46/edit would show a form for this entry, with the text areas all filled in and in nice wysiwyg format, then they can edit to their hearts content.
if they click: http://www.mydomain.com/blog/add/ this will take me to a new entry form and it will enter new information.
I have some options from looking at the forums and have checked them out:
1. SAEF - I can make a form that sends a new entry, but nothing that updates and can’t for the life of me figure out how this would work.
2. Then I looked at the Form Helper from Solspace, and it seems to do the editing thing fine enough, but I can’t make a WYSIWYG work with it.
3. And thirdly, I simply can’t figure out how to make the form WYSIWYG work in any kind of front-end form at all.
Any chances of a point in the right direction?>
